error: cannot find -lqextserialport-1.2d

kxmx

Hello, I need to build an old source code after the previous programmer. Now I'm stuck on:
:-1: error: cannot find -lqextserialport-1.2d
:-1: error: collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Qt 5.1
os xubuntu 14.04 86_64 on virtualbox

Any idea? Thanks

Hi and welcome to devnet,

You either need to build and install QExtSerialPort (which is not the same as Qt's QSerialPort module and also not a part of Qt official packages) or port the code to use the QSerialPort module.

Thanks for reply, so I install this package http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=qextserialport but result is still same.. Can it a be problem with the path to libs?

btw: sorry im not qt or cpp developer

in .pro file is

#DEPENDPATH += . ./../../qextserialport/lib/ ./../../qextserialport/build/ common/ .
#INCLUDEPATH += ./ ./../../qextserialport/src common/
#QMAKE_LIBDIR += ./../../qextserialport/build/ ./../../qextserialport/lib/

this is propably the problem

You also have to remove the -1.2d from your .pro file

thanks for advices... after a detailed reading of the .pro file, I found this syntax error

TARGET = $${TARGET}d
QEXTSERIALPORTLIB=$${QEXTSERIALPORTLIB}d

and after remove "d" program run...
