QMAKE DEFINES in Application

lolopolosko

Hello, Everyone

I`m try use QMAKE DEFINES in cpp source.
I put this values into my .pro file

VERSION = 1.0.1.2
DEFINES += VERSION=\\\"$$VERSION\\\"

And read in cpp source

QString version(VERSION);
qDebug() << "Version" << version;

But when I compile with MSVC 2013 I have this error

****\main.cpp:8: error: C2065: 'VERSION' : undeclared identifier

How I can read DEFINE from *.pro file?

Hi! MSVC and gcc use different syntax for constants on the command line. The following should work (can't test it right now):

VERSION = 1.0.1.2
unix:DEFINES += VERSION=\\\"$$VERSION\\\"
win32:DEFINES += VERSION=\"$$VERSION\"

EDIT: There have to be DOUBLE DOLLAR SIGNS. The forum software won't let me type this correctly. :-/

Ok,
I test it. And...... It isnt work

I`m change

VERSION = 1.0.1.2
DEFINES += VERSION=\\\"$$VERSION\\\"

to

unix:DEFINES += VERSION=\\\"$$VERSION\\\"
win32:DEFINES += VERSION=\"$$VERSION\"

And I have error:

****\main.cpp:8: error: C2065: 'VERSION' : undeclared identifier

Really? Just to be sure: Please clean your project and rebuild it.

Clean project
And have new error

****\main.cpp:8: error: C2143: syntax error : missing ')' before 'constant'
****\main.cpp:8: error: C2664: 'QString::QString(QStringDataPtr)' : cannot convert argument 1 from 'double' to 'const QChar *'
****\main.cpp:8: error: C2059: syntax error : ')'

EDIT:
Now I add new macro

#define _TOSTR(x) #x
#define TOSTR(X) _TOSTR(X)

And now I can use DEFINES from *.pro file
