[solved] qmake reports multiple targets and stops
-
Sure, On Qt creator , I created this project. It works.
-
I am reading through the book C++ GUI Programming with Qt 4, by Jasmin Blanchette and Mark Summerfield, where they have used qmake for compiling all the projects. So to follow the discussion in this book, I want to get command line compilation right.
-
Very good book ! Since you are following their tutorial, I would suggest to concentrate on the coding and understanding part first, then study the command line .
One of the goal of QtCreator is to make it easier to build projects. The windows command line is not the most programmer friendly thing.
-
Sir, In many places they are talking or mentioning about qmake compilation. As such it becomes difficult to imitate all the steps in QtCreator for a beginner like me.
I was watching Brians series of youtube lectures on C++ on Qt where he has used Qtcreator, all those I could reproduce in Qtceator. ( I watched some ten videos).
But, it looks very difficult to follow the book without the qmake. Hope you can help me out of this.
Or Please guide me, how I should repeat the qmake -project, qmake hello.pro and make steps in QtCreator without abandoning this beautiful and good book.
Hope I am not troubling you sir, too much.
-
please post your Makefile maybe we can see something there.
-
yes sir, I really appreciate your interest in the problem and the zeal to help the beginner.
Here is the Makefile for your kind perusal.

-------------That is the Makefile.
-
if i reconstructed these parts correctly i can't see any rules around line 62 in your makefile.
How do you call the Makefile ... how does your make call look like?
-
Sorry, may be because of cutting the file into three pieces it is like that,
here is the line number 62 of the Makefile:
Makefile: hello.pro C:/Qt/Qt5.1.0/5.1.0/mingw48_32/mkspecs/win32-g++/qmake.conf C:/Qt/Qt5.1.0/5.1.0/mingw48_32/mkspecs/features/spec_pre.prf \

Hello friends,
I uninstalled Qt5.1.0 from my machine and installed Qt 4.8.4 using
qt-win-opensource-4.8.4-mingw.exe installer.Now the qmake and make are working, and the hello.exe is created in the debug directory.
Unfortunately the hello.exe is not running due to many missing dll files.
I downloaded many all the dll files files one by one as it reported and copied into C:/Windows/system32 directory. Now I am getting an error like procedure entry point BLAH BLAH BLAH could not located in QtCored4.dll. How to rectify such errors?. Can reinstalling Windows7 solve the problem?
Question : Something may be wrong with the Qt5.1.0 qmake?
-
On windows starting an application from the build directory requires the same work as when deploying so you have to read the "deployment guide":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/deployment-windows.html for that to work.
For you last question, might be, you can try to look at the "bug report system":http://bugreports.qt-project.org/issues/ if it's a known issue
-
to your problem with the Qt 4.8.4 DLLs:
please also make sure that you use the same mingw version.... you use mingw 4.8 right?
For Qt 4.8 it should be mingw 4.4 IIRC -
Hello all,
My qmake problem got solved!.
I installed Qt 4.8.4 (mingw version) and MinGW (MinGW-gcc440-1.zip) . (Previously i was working on Qt 5.1.0, whose qmake did not work in my machine and still is not working)
Installation directories are : C:\Qt\4.8.4\ and C:\MinGW
Now I can follow all the projects given in the "C++ GUI Programming with Qt4" By Jasmin and Mak, running smoothly like butter,feeling like on top of the world now.
Thanks for the support

Rather than starting a new thread with no relation to the original post, you should simply add [solved] to the title of your original thread.
-
But, the original problem is not solved sir, it still remains as it is.
