Linking CGAL & BOOSt to qt-creator project

[jsulm]

@nour.m Don't use \ in pro file in paths.
This line is wrong also:

INCLUDEPATH += C:/local/boost_1_59_0 -lboost_filesystem

hi,
I'm by no means an expert in this, but your *.pro file is full of errors, try to fix them, make a clean build afterwards and lets se what happens than.

first of dont use \ in your path, a \ in path is Windows only, your project file will interpret this as, "continue in next line"

LIBS += -LC:\local\boost_1_59_0\lib64-msvc-12.0
        -libboost_system-vc120-mt-1_59
        -libboost_thread-vc120-mt-1_59

should be

LIBS += -LC:/local/boost_1_59_0/lib64-msvc-12.0 \
        -libboost_system-vc120-mt-1_59 \
        -libboost_thread-vc120-mt-1_59

Edit: @jsulm was a bit faster :)

[nour.m]

@J.Hilk Thanks a lot for help
I updated the .pro file , then clean &rebuild
and the errors still

[J.Hilk]

@nour.m
can you post your modified pro file?

@jsulm mentioned one error, I an other one and at least one was not mentioned by either of us.

Also you need need to run qmake after modifiying the project file. I'm not sure if thats part of the normal clean/rebuild functionality

I actually posted this previously, but you need to change this

LIBS += -LC:/local/boost_1_59_0/lib64-msvc-12.0/
-libboost_system-vc120-mt-1_59/
-libboost_thread-vc120-mt-1_59/
-boost_filesystem-vc120-mt-1_59

to

LIBS += -LC:/local/boost_1_59_0/lib64-msvc-12.0\
-libboost_system-vc120-mt-1_59\
-libboost_thread-vc120-mt-1_59\
-boost_filesystem-vc120-mt-1_59

otherwise

• -libboost_system-vc120-mt-1_59
• -libboost_thread-vc120-mt-1_59
  and
• -boost_filesystem-vc120-mt-1_59

will not be included.
The normal backwards Slash \ has its uses in the project file and here's one of them!

or add the whole path

LIBS += -LC:/local/boost_1_59_0/lib64-msvc-12.0
LIBS += -LC:/local/boost_1_59_0/libboost_system-vc120-mt-1_59
LIBS += -LC:/local/boost_1_59_0/libboost_thread-vc120-mt-1_59
LIBS += -LC:/local/boost_1_59_0/boost_filesystem-vc120-mt-1_59

A minor error on your part:

LIBS += -LC:/local/boost_1_59_0/lib64-msvc-12.0 \
-lboost_system-vc120-mt-1_59 \
-lboost_thread-vc120-mt-1_59 \
-lboost_filesystem-vc120-mt-1_59

Library prefixes are handled automatically with qmake when the proper -l switch is passed.

[nour.m]

@J.Hilk @kshegunov I updated the .pro file and the same errors are still found

@nour-m

When I look at your upload at this section:

SOURCES += main.cpp
mainwindow.cpp
my_polyhedron.cpp
myqglwidget.cpp

then you miss the backslashes here!

It should be:

SOURCES += main.cpp \
    mainwindow.cpp \
    my_polyhedron.cpp \
    myqglwidget.cpp

Please check your project file everywhere and upload it again for review afterwards.

Thanks

[nour.m]

@aha_1980 done

[aha_1980]

@nour.m where?

[nour.m]

@aha_1980 I updated the post

[J.Hilk]

@nour.m

if you mean here:
http://freetexthost.com/l5wzgtntzb
than no, you did not make the changes @aha_1980 told you to do

SOURCES += main.cpp
mainwindow.cpp 
my_polyhedron.cpp 
myqglwidget.cpp

HEADERS += mainwindow.h 
My_CGAL_Config.h 
My_Face_base.h 
My_Halfedge_base.h 
my_polyhedron.h 
My_Vertex_base.h 
myqglwidget.h

still mising \ at the end of the line

also you are adding the widgets module twice. I'm not sure in what that will result, but you should remove one

QT += core gui
QT += widgets //remove me
DEFINES += QT_DISABLE_DEPRECATED_BEFORE=0x000000


greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets
