Hi,
This is how my .pro file looks now.
It compiles...
Thanks a lot

Which version of Qt are you using ? If above or equal 5.7, you can safely remove the C++XX config values. A C++11 able compiler is mandatory since 5.7. qmake should choose the latest standard available.

And again, please post a more complete error log.

I'm using qt 5.8

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

SGaist

Are you sure you are linking to all the required libraries ?

jleko

@SGaist I'm not sure, if you have a suggestion please be my guest...

SGaist

For which version of MSVC are your Firebrid libraries compiled ?

What about ib_util_ms.lib ?

jleko

@SGaist
Hi, I reinstalled Qt with MinGW, included ib_util_ms.lib and error looks like this:

When I comment this line in .cpp file
// db=IBPP::DatabaseFactory(serverName,dbName,userName, password);
no error occures...
I really don't know what to do...I read on internet that this could be encoding problem, but I'm newb and it is little bit complex for me...
Regards.

SGaist

Again: which compiler was used to build your IBPP libraries ? It's really important on Windows since you can't mix and match compilers. Only VS2017 is compatible with VS2015.

jleko

@SGaist
Where can I see that?
I'm including only ibpp.h file in my project, no ibpp library file.

SGaist

Check the content of your package, README file etc. You can run Dependency Walker.

TioRoy

Checking the ZIP file contentes from https://www.firebirdsql.org/en/firebird-3-0-2/. Firebird is using MS compiler.

So, do not use MingW.

jleko

Is there a way around this?
Compilig a qibase driver maybe...

SGaist

A way around what ?

jleko

IBPP does not work with firebird3, I tried it with 2.5 and it works Ok.....
