Adding a project to an existing project [solved]
-
Hi,
I am new to Qt, so sorry if the question has been asked before (I couldn't find my answer).
I have a project, containing 2 git sub-modules (sub-module A & B).
Each of these sub-modules contain several other sub-modules ( Let's say A contains a, b ,c ,d & B contains a, b, c , e. A & B share some sub-modules).I added the sub-module A successfully and complied and ran my project. When I added the second sub-module, I got bunch of errors.
I have the following problem:
As A & B are sharing some same sub-modules ( a, b & c) and the sub-module's libraries are included in the header files, I get lots of errors mentioning repetitive definition of the same variables. In this case, I have my own project, sub-module A, and sub-module B. Is there any way to compile A & B independently inside my main project to prevent these kind of confusions?
I don't want to change any of those sub-modules (A&B). I only can change my own project which uses A & B.
Thanks

Hi and welcome to devnet,
How are you currently building your project ? What's your pro file setup ?

Thanks
I am building it using the hammer icon :)

@/jbx7000-module-tes is one of my sub-modules (Sub-module B)
-
What I meant was: are you building them as sub projects or including their content in your main project. Looks like solution number 2.
Are the common files of these two sub-modules the same ?
-
If these files are exactly the same, then only use them once in your pro file.
Otherwise have a look at the qmake manual to see how you can do that with the subdirs template
-
You're welcome !
Since you have it building now, please update the thread title prepending [solved] so other forum users may know a solution has been found :)
