Because it's special. So you can go into tests/ or examples/ and run make because there's a Makefile there already, even though these directories aren't built when you run make from the top of the tree. In the 4.x days qmake didn't descend into tests/ and examples/ if you turned them off but that logic was changed for 5.x. It's not a big deal on Linux but clearly it's a little slow on Windows (not too surprising as qmake has to process every .pro file 3 times on that platform). If it's really a problem, you can just remove the tests/ and examples/ directories or rename them so that qmake cannot find them. -- Link _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
