[solved] QMAKE: unknown replace function...
-
Hi guys, I am here again, now I am learning QMAKE from QtCreator Git Clone and I am trying to use that directory structure, everything works fine but:
I have got Project.pri file where is defined function:
@defineReplace(getLibraryTarget) { return($${PROJECT_NAME}.$$1) }@
And it should replace library target in library subproject (Project.pri is included there) to: Project.LibraryName
But: If I run that project, QMAKE writes: @"Unknown replace function: getLibraryTarget"@In library project is:
@
include(../../../Project.pri)
QT += xml xmlpatterns guiTARGET = $$getLibraryTarget(ServicesManager)
TEMPLATE = libDEFINES += SERVICESMANAGER_LIBRARY
SOURCES += ServicesManager.cpp
HEADERS += ServicesManager.h
ServicesManager_global.h
@I really don't know where is the problem.
EDIT: I tried to define another function in Project.pri, but the same problem result: unknown function... I don't know where is the problem...But when I wrote message($${PROJECT_NAME}), that variable was found and wrote the "Project" .. I really don't understand it...

I think qmake is pretty strict in the function formatting. See if it helps if you no longer make it a one-liner:
@defineReplace(getLibraryTarget) {
return($${PROJECT_NAME}.$$1)
}@ -
Well, I rewrote it...Probably .pri file was missing (but it was there!)... And then it worked fine... thanks for help and time :)
