Can't link my app with static Qt

Charlie_Billy

Hello, I'm trying to build my app statically, so my .pro file looks like this :

CONFIG += c++17 object_parallel_to_source static
QMAKE_LFLAGS += -static -static-libgcc -static-libstdc++
TEMPLATE = app

but when I hit Ctrl+B, the compiler returns this :

23:13:31: Débute : "/usr/bin/make" -j4

I can't see what I have done wrong, could you help me please ?

@Charlie_Billy You did not compile Qt statically.
As the error states you can't use a shared lib to link statically.

Hi
Static linking of Qt requires a license
and that you also build a static Qt version to link against. ( use as a new kit)
