Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: KArchive
-
-
Installed it according to the instructions in the website https://wiki.qt.io/Karchive_on_windows
-
Do I have to manually include all the files, lib and dll and if yes, to which directories exactly?
-

Hi,
Can you share your .pro file ?
-
QT += quick xml svg KArchive CONFIG += c++11 # The following define makes your compiler emit warnings if you use # any Qt feature that has been marked deprecated (the exact warnings # depend on your compiler).

Did you check on your system for the presence of a KArchive.pri file ?
-
I found these 2 .pri files, Are they the ones ?
-
So, I found a possible solution that involves including the pri files in the pro file of my project,
include(C:/Users/emiol/OneDrive/Desktop/Git/kaarchive/build/src/qt_KArchive.pri)These removes the above error, but I can't still make use of the headers(KZip,karchivedirectory,...), there files are not found.
I think the errors are from the pri files, the headers ain't included in it, Here is the content
QT.KArchive.VERSION = 5.61.0 QT.KArchive.MAJOR_VERSION = 5 QT.KArchive.MINOR_VERSION = 61 QT.KArchive.PATCH_VERSION = 0 QT.KArchive.name = KF5Archive QT.KArchive.module = KF5Archive QT.KArchive.defines = QT.KArchive.includes = C:-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release/include/KF5/KArchive QT.KArchive.private_includes = QT.KArchive.libs = C:-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release/lib QT.KArchive.depends = core HEADERS += `` -
Did you call make install after building the module ?
-
Yes, I did that
-
So, I manually added the files and I have this,
I'm not sure I did the right thing, Is the format of the pri file correct now?
This doesn't solve the error though, I just want to know whether I'm thinking in the right direction?QT.KArchive.VERSION = 5.61.0 QT.KArchive.MAJOR_VERSION = 5 QT.KArchive.MINOR_VERSION = 61 QT.KArchive.PATCH_VERSION = 0 QT.KArchive.name = KF5Archive QT.KArchive.module = KF5Archive QT.KArchive.defines = QT.KArchive.includes = C:-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release/include/KF5/KArchive QT.KArchive.private_includes = QT.KArchive.libs = C:-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release/lib QT.KArchive.depends = core HEADERS +=\ $$PWD/../../../../src/k7zip.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kar.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/karchive.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/karchive_p.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/karchivedirectory.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/karchiveentry.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/karchivefile.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kbzip2filter.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kcompressiondevice.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kcompressiondevice_p.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kfilterbase.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kfilterdev.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kgzipfilter.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/klimitediodevice_p.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/knonefilter.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/krcc.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/ktar.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kxzfilter.h \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kzipfileentry.h SOURCES += \ $$PWD/../../../../src/k7zip.cpp \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kar.cpp \ $$PWD/../../../../src/karchive.cpp \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kbzip2filter.cpp \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kcompressiondevice.cpp \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kfilterbase.cpp \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kfilterdev.cpp \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kgzipfilter.cpp \ $$PWD/../../../../src/klimitediodevice.cpp \ $$PWD/../../../../src/knonefilter.cpp \ $$PWD/../../../../src/krcc.cpp \ $$PWD/../../../../src/ktar.cpp \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kxzfilter.cpp \ $$PWD/../../../../src/kzip.cpp -
Building KArchive on windows is not trivial and that article is badly out of date.
You can download a pre-built version for MSVC2017 from here (expires in 6 months):Then unpack it and add the below to your project (.pro) file (this assumes you uncompressed the library in
C:\KDE)LIBS += -LC:/KDE/lib INCLUDEPATH += C:/KDE/include/KF5/KArchive CONFIG(release, debug|release) { LIBS += -lKF5Archive } CONFIG(debug, debug|release) { LIBS += -lKF5Archived } -
Thanks a lot, It works fine now.
I really appreciate all thehelp
