Qkeychain - error: undefined reference to `__imp__ZN9QKeychain16WritePasswordJobC1ERK7QStringP7QObject'

dounreay

I'm trying to store passwords in my QT project using Qkeychain. I've installed and imported the libraries, however I keep on getting "error: undefined reference to `__imp__ZN9QKeychain16WritePasswordJobC1ERK7QStringP7QObject'" when I try to compile. I've included my .pro file. Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks

@dounreay Please post the whole error message and also the linker call which is causing it.
Does $$PWD/../../../../src/vcpkg/installed/x64-windows/include/qt5keychain contain the lib?
Was this lib build using same compiler as you're using?

@jsulm said in Qkeychain - error: undefined reference to `__imp__ZN9QKeychain16WritePasswordJobC1ERK7QStringP7QObject':

Was this lib build using same compiler as you're using?

No, the libraries and the includes are in different sub directories. I'll try moving it now

I'm not sure how to check what compiler was used for the lib, although I have installed other libraries successfully.

Are you sure that Qt5Keychain lib is compiled for MinGW and not MSVC? vcpkg in the directory name does not look like a MinGW build.

jsulm

@dounreay said in Qkeychain - error: undefined reference to `__imp__ZN9QKeychain16WritePasswordJobC1ERK7QStringP7QObject':

No, the libraries and the includes are in different sub directories

This is not what I asked. And there is also no need to move the lib.
What I asked was: was this library built using same compiler or a different one? You can't mix binaries built with different compilers (like MSVC and MinGW) in same application.
