@Jasmin-Quinn move the declaration of
Game *game to MainWindow.h as global declaration

@nagesh Done

@Jasmin-Quinn I hope Game *game declared in MainWindow.h only..

Jasmin Quinn

@nagesh It is i promise . Is it nomral that my compiler couldn't find the moc_mainwindow.cpp file tho ?

nagesh

@Jasmin-Quinn paste MainWindow.h code here
Hope it's having below statements in the beginning
#ifdef MAINWINDOW_H
#define MAINWINDOW_H

@Jasmin-Quinn okay fine, I repeat that my first post is the solution to this application integration.

I repost the working solution. (I tried integrating github project which is working fine )

Solution as per the existing implementation of chessboard application (Just to make the integration works fine)
1)Copy the required files(chess project files) to the existing project.

2)In Mainwindow.cpp create the global game object pointer;
Game *game=nullptr;
//make sure Game *game; exists only in the Mainwindow.cpp
//Earlier crash was because there were two instance game * one in Manwindow.h as member variable and other with main.cpp.

3)In Mainwindow.cpp include the game.h file
#include "game.h"

4)In on_lancer_partie_clicked() create the instance of it
game = new Game();
game->show();
game->displayMainMenu();

Note: Assumption that github code remains unaltered.

So basically back to square one.
I still believe that SUB_DIRS would make life easier.
( adding game code from github was a snap - but it works as independent project only.

The qmake / management part of SUB_DIRS is OK, however, it definitely requires better knowledge of "make" ( am I repeating myself here?).

There are many options in qmake and it will just take some time to figure out how to

have (main) project
and be able to select real sub-project.

I have done that on "C level " - using MDI / QProcess and I'll try to get same result
using qmake.

If I borrow Qt "cALLBACK" terminology you probably want
main window event loop
game project event loop

or in human -
run game project event loop INSIDE main project event loop
or in "pseudocode " (no buttons pushing )

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication main ptoject (argc, argv); main project event loop
QApplication game project (argc, argv); game project event loop
game = new Game();
game->show();
game->displayMainMenu();
return game project .exec();
return main project .exec();
}

nagesh

@AnneRanch AFAIK one instance of QApplication & one event loop required in main

@nagesh IT WORKKKSSS Thank youu !! How did i not think of that

Is it correct to say that now the "main project" has all the code of "chess" added so basically there is only one application running?

The objective to "have two windows" has been met, however, adding more "child applications" using same philosophy of "cut and paste" is not what " reusing code " means to me.
