Qt5 Mac OS 10.7 "ld: 2 duplicate symbols for architecture x86_64"

[mourad_bilog]

Hello everybody,

I've an application witch is compiled correctly with Qt5 under Windows using Qt Creator. But, the same source code compiled on Mac OS 10.7 using Qt Creator generate the following error

duplicate symbol __Z23qInitResources_autonomev in: qrc_autonome.o duplicate symbol __Z26qCleanupResources_autonomev in: qrc_autonome.o 
ld: 2 duplicate symbols for architecture x86_64 clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) make: *** [Debug/Autonome.app/Contents/MacOS/Autonome] Error 1 
09:00:44: Le processus "/usr/bin/make" s'est terminé avec le code 2. Erreur lors de la compilation/déploiement du projet autonome (kit : Desktop Qt 5.5.1 clang 64bit) When executing step "Make"

I've tried for 2 days to search and resolve this common problem but It persists.
Kwoning that when I comment the REOURCES entry in the pri file, application is compiled correctly.

Can anyone tell what's wrong and how to fix this really blocant problem.

Best regards.

Hi @mourad_bilog

In qt creator there is a compile output tab is it possible to share with us the build output of this tab , when trying to build your project?

[mourad_bilog]

Hi,

Do you have several qrc files ?

[mourad_bilog]

Hi SGaist,

There's only one qrc file in the application.

[SGaist]

Can you show your .pro file ?

[mourad_bilog]

I've solved the problem by generating a new qrc_app.cpp file.

Thanks for your responses.
