    It gives around 27 different errors like:

    @xanthas You're not linking the libraries properly.
    On Windows this is wrong:

    LIBS += -L"C:\OSGeo4W\apps\qgis-qt6-dev\lib" -lqgis_gui -lqgis_core
    

    Please take a look at https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qmake-variable-reference.html#libs and fix this.

      I have edited the .pro file to:

      LIBS += -L"C:\OSGeo4W\apps\qgis-qt6-dev\lib libs" -lqgis_gui -lqgis_core
      

      I also tried:

      LIBS += "-LC:\OSGeo4W\apps\qgis-qt6-dev\lib lib" -lqgis_gui -lqgis_core
      

      The file seems to be there but after what you said suggested it is giving me only this error now:

      C:\Qt\Tools\mingw1120_64\x86_64-w64-mingw32\bin\ld.exe:-1: cannot find -lqgis_gui
      C:\Qt\Tools\mingw1120_64\x86_64-w64-mingw32\bin\ld.exe:-1: cannot find -lqgis_core
      

      When I did this:

      LIBS += C:/OSGeo4W/apps/qgis-qt6-dev/lib/qgis_3d.lib C:/OSGeo4W/apps/qgis-qt6-dev/lib/qgis_analysis.lib C:\OSGeo4W\apps\qgis-qt6-dev\lib\qgis_app.lib C:\OSGeo4W\apps\qgis-qt6-dev\lib\qgis_native.lib C:\OSGeo4W\apps\qgis-qt6-dev\lib\qgis_server.lib #-lqgis_gui -lqgis_core
      

      Again all the previous errors mentioned arise

        LIBS += C:/OSGeo4W/apps/qgis-qt6-dev/lib/qgis_3d.lib \
                C:/OSGeo4W/apps/qgis-qt6-dev/lib/qgis_analysis.lib \
                C:/OSGeo4W/apps/qgis-qt6-dev/lib/qgis_app.lib \
                C:/OSGeo4W/apps/qgis-qt6-dev/lib/qgis_native.lib \
                C:/OSGeo4W/apps/qgis-qt6-dev/lib/qgis_server.lib
        

        Should work (you have \ in the paths which is wrong, don't use \ in in paths in pro files ).
        If it does not then next thing to check is: were these libs built using same compiler?
        You should also look for the very first linker error/warning.

          You can not mix visual studio and mingw libraries. Either compile all with msvc or use QGIS compiled against mingw.

                    What did you "try"?
                    If @Christian-Ehrlicher is correct here with:

                    You can not mix visual studio and mingw libraries. Either compile all with msvc or use QGIS compiled against mingw.

                    trying harder won't solve your problem :)

                    Either switch to MSVC or find another, MinGW supporting, version of QGIS.

                      So what I have understood is that when I download all dependencies and build QGiS from source, I should either use Qt to compile and build libraries or else I should use visual studio to build and compile it, right?
                      Further, to make the UI and backend codes I should use the same compiler from which I had made the QGiS library, Am I right?

                      What I have understood is the same thing discussed here also, I guess.

                        No.
                        Qt and visual studio are two completely different things.
                        Qt is a C++ framework, Visual Studio is a IDE.
                        What @Pl45m4 wrote is: you should use MSVC as compiler + Qt built with MSVC.
                        Or you find (or build by yourself) QGIS built with MinGW + Qt built with MinGW.
                        Reason: you cannot mix different C++ compiler (like you do now: MSVC + MinGW).

                              here is my .pro file

                              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

                                  You still doing the same thing as in your first post - you use a Qt compiled for MinGW and try to link it against a QGis compiled against MSVC. This will not work out - no matter how often you install something...

                                      @abhishek999 Again: you have to use Qt built with MSVC compiler. So, install Qr for MSVC and use it...

                                        @abhishek999 Currently what I am doing is that rebuilding QGiS using MSVC
                                        If I get anything relevant and the steps starts to works
                                        I will share it here
                                        Please do the same (sharing it here) if you get anything or procedure that has to be followed

                                          @Christian-Ehrlicher Surprisingly who you just replied is not the OP :) but they are making, or were making the same mistake.
