Need help building kQAuth library for Qt
-
Using: Qt 5.1 with Windows 7 64 bit
I've never done anything concerning compiling external libraries, so I'm lost.
Instructions for kQOAuth state:
For Windows with the Visual Studio or Windows SDK Compiler
-
run “qmake CONFIG+=release”
-
run “nmake” to build
-
run “nmake install” to install
but I’m not sure how to do that.
So in a nutshell if you could please answer the following 4 questions (preferably with step by step instructions):
1-How to compile kQOAuth as part of my application using Qt Creator IDE
2-How to compile kQOAuth outside Qt Creator IDE by using command line to create a precompiled library to insert in my application in Windows
3-How to insert a precompiled library into my Qt App.
4-Is it better to have the library "precompiled" to use in my app?
I know I can hunt for many hours for these answers on the internet, but a great deal of time would be saved if you already know the answers to the above 4 questions.
Please advise.

Hi,
-
Since the project has a pro file, you can open it in QtCreator and build it from there.
-
Just open the 64 bit console from the visual studio start menu entry, cd to your kQAuth dir, run qmake using the full path to the qmake executable you want to use and call the other two commands.
-
Either use QtCreator addLibrary or edit the pro file by hand giving the include path, the library path and library name.
-
Depends on the library

Thank you, I guess I did :)
I googled for it and looked on http://inqlude.org/ but no dice. -

You had a typo in the name it's kQOAuth ;)

It's still more pronounceable than some assembler instructions :D
