[SOLVED]Qmake include file advice

Paul H.

Hello,
i have a .pri file to set up library and include paths for a 3rd-party library. I am looking for a good way to determine the compiler being used. Right now I am only concerned about 2 versions of MSVC (2010, 2013), so the following code works for me:

    # Check which toolchain is being used
    test = $$(QTDIR)
    test2 = $$find(test, 2010)
    !isEmpty(test2) {
        compiler=vc10
        message($$compiler)
    }
    else {
        test2 = $$find(test, 2013)
        !isEmpty(test2) {
            compiler=vc12
            message($$compiler)
        }
    }

Is there a better way to get this information? Perhaps an internal variable that I can check? Like I said, this works, but I wanted to see if anyone has a better way.
Thank you.
Paul

Hi,

IIRC you can use scopes for that

win32-msvc2010 {
// Visual Studio specific stuff
}

Thank you! That did the trick.
