    This is my .pro:

    QT       += core gui
    
    greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets
    
    CONFIG += c++11
    
    # You can make your code fail to compile if it uses deprecated APIs.
    # In order to do so, uncomment the following line.
    #DEFINES += QT_DISABLE_DEPRECATED_BEFORE=0x060000    # disables all the APIs deprecated before Qt 6.0.0
    
    SOURCES += \
        main.cpp \
        pdfwriter1steps.cpp
    
    HEADERS += \
        pdfwriter1steps.h
    
    FORMS += \
        pdfwriter1steps.ui
    
    # Default rules for deployment.
    qnx: target.path = /tmp/$${TARGET}/bin
    else: unix:!android: target.path = /opt/$${TARGET}/bin
    !isEmpty(target.path): INSTALLS += target
    
    win32:CONFIG(release, debug|release): LIBS += -L$$PWD/./ -lPDFWriter
    else:win32:CONFIG(debug, debug|release): LIBS += -L$$PWD/./ -lPDFWriter
    else:unix: LIBS += -L$$PWD/./ -lPDFWriter
    
    INCLUDEPATH += $$PWD/.
    DEPENDPATH += $$PWD/.

      pdfhummus error: PDFWriter.h: No such file or directory
      Good night guys. I'm trying development a PDF file handler with QT Create and PDFHummus and i have get this error: PDFWriter.h: No such file or directory. I have build PDFHummus source code and add the PDFWriter.lib to my QT project througth: options -> add library -> external libraies. Someone help-me please.

      The same error for the others resources: #include <PDFWriter.h>, #include <PDFPage.h>, #include <PDFWriter.h>, #include <PDFPageInput.h>

      @ronaldon said in PDFhummus error: PDFWriter.h: No such file or directory. I need help to use PDFhummus with QT Creator:

      pdfhummus error: PDFWriter.h: No such file or directory

      The same error for the others resources: #include <PDFWriter.h>, #include <PDFPage.h>, #include <PDFWriter.h>, #include <PDFPageInput.h>

      So where are these header files actually located, and what have you done about making your INCLUDEPATH include the directory so that the compiler can find them? I don't see anything in your .pro for this?

          That seems to have no answer for what I asked you about where the header files are and how you have told the compile process to find them on include path. Repeating that you have built PDFWriter does not advance you any further.

            I think I understand now, I shouldn't use PDFWriter.lib, instead i should add to my project the PDF Hummus fonts. It is that true?

                Hi,

                As @JonB requested: where is the header of that library located on your hard drive ?

                That path is missing from your INCLUDEPATH variable.

                  The header PDFWriter.h is in "D:\WORKSPACE\PDFWriter\PDFWriter" and my project is in "C:\Users\Usuario\Documents\QTProjects\TestPDFhummus"

                      Build the library properly and use it rather than trying to do it by hand like you do.

                              I'm sorry for the missing code tag, i made the correction. I don't know what MinGW will use. I started my first QT project theses days, i just need learn how configure the external library for develop my routine.

                                It's much better with the code tag! :)

                                I'm afarid this is not my area so you'll have to wait for someone else to comment, but: I do not think you are linking against the PDFWriter library.

                                I think you need that line, or similar, for your MinGW. And I assume that line is only applied if you are compiling for unix (and not macx), whereas as you are Windows.

                                      I would start by looking at the actual linker command line being executed during the build. All you show is the errors, without showing the command line.

                                          @ronaldon said in PDFhummus error: PDFWriter.h: No such file or directory. I need help to use PDFhummus with QT Creator:

                                          -L"C:\Users\Ronaldo Fernandes\Documents\QTProjects\TestPDFhummus\pdf_hummus\PDFWriter\debug\PDFWriter.lib" -lPDFWriter
                                          
                                          ld.exe: cannot find -lPDFWriter
                                          

                                          There is something wrong here. You have debug\PDFWriter.lib at the end of the -L argument. That is a file, and that is wrong. It should be a directory where -lPDFWriter is to find the PDFWriter library file.

                                          Compare against what else you have in the llinker line, like

                                          -L"C:\Users\Ronaldo Fernandes\Documents\QTProjects\TestPDFhummus\pdf_hummus\FreeType\debug" -lFreeType
                                          

                                          See how that -L only names the debug directory for the -lFreeType to search for it? That's how it should be.

                                          Additional to that you have PDFWriter.lib mentioned. But (so far as I know) .lib files are only used as library files for the MSVC compiler. You are using MinGW, its libraries should only be .a files, I believe.

                                          Go look at how the path ending in debug\PDFWriter.lib is being generated, and correct. And make sure what you have for PDFWriter is for MinGW, not for MSVC.
