[Solved] qmake stuck in infinite loop
-
Hi there.
I'm experiencing quite strange behaviour of qmake on Windows 7.
I have 3 .pro projects that share some common code, and that code is taken out to a separate .pri project. It is included like this:
@include(../common/common.pri)@Now, when I try to build these projects on Windows, I get this:

@This happens occasionly, but only on Windows. On linux it builds without any problems.
Has anybody experienced this? Any ideas how to fix this? Thanks.

Yes, I (and other users) suffered of this bug, in my case was a conflict between an installation of Qt SDK and MSYS, I solved it by calling mingw32-make instead of make. All of this when compiling from a MSYS console.

Thanks, building with mingw32-make from MSYS console solved the problem.
