Have you done a rerun qmake and a rebuild?

About 200 by now :- )

Ehem, are you really using Qmake?

Makefile2 [CMakeFiles\app.dir\all] Error 2

that rather sounds like CMake...

Yeah I'm using CMake...hmm I thought I placed tag in the topic for CMake here :- )

I'm going over CMakeFiles/app.dir /etc/etc now 1 by 1 trying to find some kind of cmake log that could tell me where it crashed....

Weird thing is, I managed to load half of the library-source, but when I try to say extend one of classes I get an error too... o_o

@aha_1980 Ok I think I found it... it was... WINDOWS PATH LIMIT! Yay....... How on earth do I fix it? O_O

@Dariusz
Hi Wow. it must be a somewhat nested structure to hit the limit.
Anyway, if Windows 10, there is an opt-in option

section Maximum Path Length Limitation

I've set the group policy to be long paths, as I'm on w10Pro but still did not work. I ended up having to shorten my folder names :- (((( Apparently in order for long path to be used the application has to use it itself, its not default implementation or something like that :- (.

Hi,

Out of curiosity, how long are you paths ?

Weird, I just did check on one of longer ones, it was around 140 chars... + so this is even weirder... how did I hit path limit o.O

SGaist

Encrypted disk ?

Dariusz

Nope don't think so. I guess the build/debug/CMake.xxxx etc etc might add quite a few more chars, so the files in src are fine but the generated cmake path is too long due to all of them adding up somehow?

SGaist

Did you try to build your project directly from a command prompt ?

Dariusz

Hey

Nope not yet. Will try it, just need to learn it :- )
