Set depends of a project to another subdirs project.

sergboec

The title may be a little confusing, so let me explain.
Let's suppose i have this project structure:

main.pro
Base(subdirs) - S(lib),R(lib),Q(lib)
A(app)
B(app)

main.pro looks like this:

TEMPLATE = subdirs
SUBDIRS = \ 
Base \ 
A \ 
B \
A.depends = Base
B.depends = Base

But I in reality A depends only from S and R, and B depends only from Q.
Is there any way to set .depends to project(s) in subdirs project, not to whole subdirs project?

Hi,

You can be more specific in your .depends declaration. See this very good article

@SGaist thanks, that helps.
But now i have another one question:
I made smth like this in my pro file:

logger_lib.subdir = base/Logger
logger_lib.target = lib_logger

manager_app.subdir = manager
manager_app.target = app_manager
manager_app.depends = lib_logger

but in my qt creator view logger and manager are on the same line.
how i can bring logger to subdir base?

What version of Qt Creator is it ?
