Using qmake to build a non Qt based application

Laurent Schall

Hi,

I would like to use the qmake pro file to build a golang based application aside my Qt based application. Can someone point me to some .pro file examples showing how to do that ?

Thanks,
Laurent

Hi and welcome to the forums
I dont have any example .pro file but Docs is
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmake-advanced-usage.html#adding-compilers

i assume it can work with golang too but i dont know its toolchain.

@Laurent-Schall Another option is to switch to cmake for your project. It fully supports Qt (and Qt has macros and what not for it). It can build pretty much anything. Can handle any toolchain I've thrown at it, and you cause use ExternalProject_add() to actually add a project that is compiled using it's own methods, but becomes part of your build.
