Importing namespaces from other projects

[emazed]

Hello,
i'd like to use enum defined in a referred project, inside a namespaces.
I have a project 'referred.pri', which is included in main project 'main.pro'. Then in 'referred' project i have and header file with enums defined in a namespace.

#ifndef referred_H
#define referred_H

#include <QObject>
//...

namsepace ns1 {
  Q_NAMESPACE
   myenum enum1 {
     item1,
     intem2,
   };
  Q_ENUM_NS(enum1)
}
// ...

then i my main header 'main.h'

// ...
#inlcude referred.h

using namespace ns1;   // error: expected namespace name
// ...

why i can't use namespace defined in other header of referred project? what am i missing??

Thank you

#inlcude referred.h

I suppose it was #inlcude "referred.h". Can you use anything else from referred.h? Looks to me like mainh can't see referred.h

yes sorry, it is #include "referred.h".
I found that another different header file included in 'main.h', that had same two lines at beginning:

#ifndef referred_H
#define referred_H

this is because i copied this file directly from 'referred.h', and forgot to change first two lines. This caused the exclusion of entire content of referred.h file. Sorry.
