SherifOmran

hi guys,

I get the following error. could you please let me know what is the problem?

undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
"qt_static_plugin_qsqlite()", referenced from:

i installed qt from source with following syntax
./configure -static -nomake examples -plugin-sql-sqlite
make
make install

Hi,

Did you update your project to handle static plugins like shown here ?

SherifOmran

@SGaist yes, the project was working with qt 4.8 using static.
When i ported it to 5.9.1. first i installed qt from the GUI and then i installed the QT from source. But it keep not detecting the qt sql plugin.

SGaist

Why build it a static plugin plugin rather than builtin the library ?

SherifOmran

when i run macdeployqt, i get a message that sqlite lib is not approporiate for appstore and thus i decided to build it static and try. Now, i removed the full installation and i hope to reinstall it again as static. It seems there is a problem in the configure file, i dont know. May be if i use brew i can edit the receipt to include the static tags and run it. do you ve an idea?

SGaist

AFAIK, that warning is not related to the fact that you are using a plugin.

I'd rather ensure that there's nothing trying to open a database on an arbitrary path.

The problem occur with Qt5.9.1 when i call

Q_IMPORT_PLUGIN(qsqlite); //for static sqlite plugin use in MAC

do we need to do it in Qt 5.9 ?

SGaist

Did you add the matching QTPLUGIN line in your .pro file ?

SherifOmran

yes, it is in the PRO file.
I think Q_IMPORT is no longer needed because it is added by the QMAKE automatically in 5.9.1. I see the plugins in the make file.
