you need to incorporate the object code of your custom widget. Either by linking it as a library or by adding the source files to your project.
The Designer plugin does not add the code for you, it just makes it available in the graphical design tool.

Thank you for your reply.. I have tried linking the lib file also.. Still the problem persists..

It works when adding source files to my app.. Must be some problem with the way i created lib file i guess..
