Hi all,
I hope I am posting it in the right place. This is my first post in this
mailing list. If that's not the right place, I would like to apologize and
feel free to direct me to the correct one.
As for my question. I am trying to figure out why my executable is not being
updated when the static library which it depends on gets changed. Here are
my PRO files.
Root PRO file:
TEMPLATE = subdirs
SUBDIRS += myapp staticlib
myapp.subdir = myapp
staticlib.subdir = staticlib
myapp.depends = staticlib
MyApp PRO file:
QT += core
QT -= gui
CONFIG += c++11
TARGET = myapp
CONFIG += console
CONFIG -= app_bundle
TEMPLATE = app
SOURCES += main.cpp
# The following define makes your compiler emit warnings if you use
# any feature of Qt which as been marked deprecated (the exact warnings
# depend on your compiler). Please consult the documentation of the
# deprecated API in order to know how to port your code away from it.
DEFINES += QT_DEPRECATED_WARNINGS
# You can also make your code fail to compile if you use deprecated APIs.
# In order to do so, uncomment the following line.
# You can also select to disable deprecated APIs only up to a certain
version of Qt.
#DEFINES += QT_DISABLE_DEPRECATED_BEFORE=0x060000 # disables all the APIs
deprecated before Qt 6.0.0
LIBS += -L$$PWD/../staticlib/debug -lstaticlib
INCLUDEPATH += $$PWD/../staticlib
Static library PRO file:
QT -= gui
TARGET = StaticLib
TEMPLATE = lib
CONFIG += staticlib
# The following define makes your compiler emit warnings if you use
# any feature of Qt which as been marked as deprecated (the exact warnings
# depend on your compiler). Please consult the documentation of the
# deprecated API in order to know how to port your code away from it.
DEFINES += QT_DEPRECATED_WARNINGS
# You can also make your code fail to compile if you use deprecated APIs.
# In order to do so, uncomment the following line.
# You can also select to disable deprecated APIs only up to a certain
version of Qt.
#DEFINES += QT_DISABLE_DEPRECATED_BEFORE=0x060000 # disables all the APIs
deprecated before Qt 6.0.0
SOURCES += staticlib.cpp
HEADERS += staticlib.h
unix {
target.path = /usr/lib
INSTALLS += target
}
When the static library is changed, it is recompiled and relinked as
expected. However, the executable itself is not.
I have tried to use QMAKE from command line and through QtCreator and have
the same issue (Qt 5.8.0 and QtCreator 4.2.1, Windows 10 x64, MSVC 2015)
Do I miss something here ?
Thanks in advance!
