    I was talking about the .lib files themselves.

    .dll are in any shared libraries.

      I encountered a problem that when I build HDF5 without ZLIB I can run HDF5 library in Qt (as static library for example). But when building HDF5 with ZLIB=on then I can run HDF5 only as dynamic library and still I get error: LNK2001: unresolved external character "H5T_STD_I32BE_g" when I set format for my saving data like integer 32 big endian (or any other data formats). The other functionality works properly (for example I can create empty HDF5-files and add groups in them etc). What maybe the reason of this strange behaviour?
      ZLIB, HDF5 builded in DEBUG mode.
      If my HDF5 library depends on ZLIB library then in QMake should I add some strings about ZLIB?

        I added ZLIB library to the QMake and it worked :)

          To the New Yaer event I got SSD-disk :)
          So I decided to install Windows 10 x64 and now I have disk C:\ on SSD and HDD stores all my data from previous installed Windows 7 x64.

          I have strange situation... When I run Qt project that uses HDF5 library and this library is on old HDD then I can normally run it.
          If I copy HDF5 library to the SSD then I get the following error:
          error: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'hdf5.h': No such file or directory

          I use:

          #include "hdf5.h"
          

          and in .pro file I have:

          LIBS += С:/apps/MSVC_apps_debug/HDF5_1106/lib/libhdf5_D.lib \
                  С:/apps/MSVC_apps_debug/HDF5_1106/lib/libhdf5_hl_D.lib \
                  С:/apps/MSVC_apps_debug/ZLIB/lib/libzlib_D.lib
          
          INCLUDEPATH += С:/apps/MSVC_apps_debug/HDF5_1106/include \
                         С:/apps/MSVC_apps_debug/ZLIB/include
          DEPENDPATH += С:/apps/MSVC_apps_debug/HDF5_1106/include \
                        С:/apps/MSVC_apps_debug/ZLIB/include
          

          By the way it doesn't depend if I recompile HDF5 library with installation folder on C:/ or just copy it from E:/ to C:/ (I mean copy from HDD to SSD). In both cases I get the same error.

          Why Qt can't see this header file in include folder?

            Did you check the build log to see if the paths you added are used ?

              @SGaist As far as I see yes. I marked it with bold style.
              The compilator output uses backslashes () and I use slash (/) when pointing a directory. In Windows 7 slashes worked normally, couldn't that be a reason in Windows 10?

                That's surprising... the slash/backslash conversion should be handled automatically for you.

                What happens if you uses backslashes in your .pro file ?

                  Both variants are possible? That is useful because I always forget the way I should use slash or backslash :)

                    Well, by default use forward slashes. Qt does the conversion and you even have specific functions in QDir for converting if you need the native version.

                    Can you show the exact path where the header is located including the file name ?

                      @SGaist ok
                      i write from my phone now but it is here:
                      C:/apps/MSVC_debug/HDF5_1106/lib/libhdf5_D.lib
                      C:/apps/MSVC_debug/HDF5_1106/include

                      I probably mistaken a little but there is no spaces in path.
                      A little bit later i can copy the correct path

                        @SGaist On SSD disk include directory that contains "hdf5.h" is in:
                        C:\apps\MSVC_apps_debug\HDF5_1106\include\hdf5.h

                        And on HDD disk (that used to be the C:\ folder when I had Windows 7):
                        E:\apps\MSVC_apps_debug\HDF5_NO_MPI\include\hdf5.h

                          Might be a silly question but do you have proper read access to these folders ?

                          One other thing to try, create a new default project and just put the minimal needed to use hdf5.

                            @SGaist yes I have permission. And yesterday I've tried to create new project and copy the content to it but it did't solve the problem.

                            Few minuts ago I just tried the following. I have two QtCreator: one is standart that comes with Qt (compiled with MSVC 32 C:\Qt\Tools\QtCreator) and other I installed to the folder C:\Qt\Tools\qtcreator-4.11.0 that is compiled with MSVC 64. Yesterday I was trying to use the one that compiled with MSVC 64. But now I tried to use standart QtCreator x32 and it runs the apllication without problem. After that I launched QtCreator x64 and it runs too.

                            I don't know why this happened but I think there is two possible reasons:

                            1. I always used wrong path to the library and include directory (I checked it many times but still such things sometimes happen)
                            2. something that is connected with the build type of QtCreator x32 or x64 (or how they were installed or kits). Both of them of version 4.11.0

                              What I meant was to not use anything from your other project so you would have something completely independent.

                              As for Qt Creator, its architecture has nothing to do with the architecture of the Qt version you are using.

                              Anyway, glad you have it working now !
