    New info on the problem!

    The failing auto connection of the signals happen when i add the -lQt5Ftp library on

    LIBS += -LC:/Qt/Qt5.2.1/5.2.1/mingw48_32/lib -lQt5Ftp -lKernel32
    

    which i built from this https://github.com/qt/qtftp

    I tested it with creating a new empty qt project (window application) and adding only one button and slot (with right click -> goto slot "clicked"). Inside the slot i added a

    qDebug() << "Click";
    

    Built/run on debug mode and everything runs smoothly (the slot is connected and fired properly)

    Then i add the above line inside the .pro file and Rebuilt the project from scratch. When i run the application i got the usual warning

    QMetaObject::connectSlotsByName: No matching signal for on_pushButton_clicked()
    

    and the slot is not fired.
    I also tested if the library -lKernel32 was the problem but everything executed fine when i left only this library.

      That is really odd as that's a lib and should not really
      interfere with moc and signal findings.
      Maybe it screws up the meta data somehow.

          I dont know if we can see that.
          we can check what connectSlotsByName
          does here
          https://code.woboq.org/qt5/qtbase/src/corelib/kernel/qobject.cpp.html#3539

          maybe we could dump the names it sees with and without ftp lib.

            One question: why is something as old as Qt 5.2 involved in your build?

              @JonB We started development on that version and there was never a necessity to upgrade to a newer version.

                It seems (again!) that the problem indeed wasn't the qt5ftp library but the way i built it.
                You see we use dynamic linking for all the libraries we use in our application (qt and 3rd party) and by mistake i had statically built the qtftp library.
                This seems that had created some "conflicts" that were the cause of the mentioned problem.

                  Hi
                  Does qt5ftp have any GUI also ?
                  So we could get a name clash or something?
