Looks like you did not export PropertyToCsvSetting from your library

Dong

@VRonin
I don't know what you mean...

The problem is: It compile OK on QT creator 5.7

jsulm

@Dong You should read this: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5.7/sharedlibrary.html

VRonin

@Dong said in Compile Error: "Undefined reference to" Constructor:

It compile OK on QT creator 5.7

Ok, sorry, I missed that part. Did you build the library with Qt 5.4.2?

Dong

@VRonin
Yes !
all project are in the same SubDir Project

VRonin

So, I guess the library is static. could you post the 3 .pro files please?

kshegunov

Reran qmake and did a full rebuild?

Dong

Dear All: here is my situation

The class which cause compile Error is PropertyColumnMapping in DynamicObjectCore.pro
Then CommonBusiness.pro using this class
And Presentation linked to both CommonBusiness.pro & DynamicObjectCore.pro

Clean + QMake + Rebuild doesn't work.

Here is my Project Structure.
