QtSerialPort with static Qt on Mac OS X

? Offline

Hey everyone,

I finally built Qt5.2.1 statically under Mac OS X. Now I have an application witch needs the serialport module. If I try to build it with my static version of Qt I get "Unknown module(s) in QT: serialport". The module is not present in my static Qt build. I already tried building the serialport module seperately but this does not work. How do I compile Qt5 statically with the serialport module?

I simply created the static version by
@./configure -static
make install@

Thank you for an advice!

I had the same problem. In the qtserialport dir be sure to do the following:

@qmake
make
sudo make install@

I had forgotten to sudo the third step and wasn't looking at the output too carefully. The install phase needs to put some of the qtserialport library files in /usr/local that qmake is looking for when you try to do qt += serialport.
