QtCreator: kit-specific precompiler macro definitions
-
I am using QtCreator 3.1.1 to build a cross-platform project, and so I arranged to have different compilation kits for targeting my desktop PC and my BeagleBoneBlack (BBB).
Now I would like to define some macro in qmake project file (
.pro) which are specific only for a given kit.In other words I would like do in my
.profile something like:@ if(kit == BBB)
DEFINES += MY_BBB_MACRO
elseif(kit == Desktop)
DEFINES += MY_DESKTOP_MACRO
else
DEFINES += OTHER_MACRO@Is is possible? How can I do that?

the qmake "built-in test functions":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qmake-test-function-reference.html#built-in-test-functions is what you can use.

Thanks koahnig... Following your hints I finally came up in adding a CONFIG directive to my platform, as in the following picture (in the provided example I added CONFIG+=BBB, on other kits I've added CONFIG+=AM335x and CONFIG+=Desktop):
!http://it.tinypic.com/r/mh8qyg/8()!
and then, using the built-in test functions, I slightly modified my
.profile to include the requested platform-specific defines:!http://it.tinypic.com/r/2qwcwhh/8()!
and it works! Now in my code I can use #ifdef PLATFORM_BBB or #ifdef PLATFORM_AM335X or #ifdef PLATFORM_DESKTOP to differentiate the program behaviour on different platforms.
Thanks!
