Including a self-made library into another project

jepessen

Hi.
I'm trying to create a program with one library and one executable that invokes that library.

At first, I've created one folder for the application, and then three subfolders, one for a test executable project, one for the library project and one that's the path in which both library and executable are copied.

This is the .pro of the library

@QT -= gui
TARGET = MyLibrary
TEMPLATE = lib
DEFINES += MYLIBRARY_LIBRARY

SOURCES += mylibrary.cpp
HEADERS += mylibrary.h
MyLibrary_global.h \

Copying to destination folder

DESTDIR = ../../bin[/CODE]

This one is the .pro of the test application
[CODE]QT += core
QT -= gui
TARGET = TestApp
CONFIG += console
CONFIG -= app_bundle

TEMPLATE = app
SOURCES += main.cpp

MyLibrary Library

LIBS += -L../../bin/libMyLibrary.so
INCLUDEPATH += ../../MyLibrary/MyLibrary

Copying to destination folder

DESTDIR = ../../bin@

When I compile the library, it's successfully copied into the bin directory.

If I include the mylibrary.h header into the test application, it finds it and it compiles.
But, if I try to use the class defined in my library

@#include <QtCore/QCoreApplication>

#include "mylibrary.h"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QCoreApplication a(argc, argv);

MyLibraryClass<qint32> xTest (1,1,1);

return a.exec&#40;&#41;;

}@

I obtain the error:

[QUOTE]main.cpp:(.text+0x39): undefined reference to `MyLibraryClass<int>::MyLibraryClass(int, int, int)'[/QUOTE]

I'd like to know where's the error, and how can I compile successfully the executable.

Thanks in advance for your replies.
