LINK_WHAT_YOU_USE is supposed to do the right thing, however it's documented for ELF only, and even then I wasn't able to make it work. That's why I started with the g++ -u someSymbol and /INCLUDE:someSymbol instead. There are WIP changes that try to do that. > See https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtdeclarative/+/367149 Oh, I just took the easy (perhaps wrong) approach. I pushed from the backing target to the consumer a cpp file, which is a dummy containing the pointer thing. It just contains (Tsc.Ui is my module's URI): extern TSCUI_API void qml_register_types_Tsc_Ui(); inline volatile auto tscUiTypeRegistration = &qml_register_types_Tsc_Ui; I haven't tested it with static libraries, as generally I do avoid them, but does work for for the shared one (as expected).
