    @JonB It should be .lib, yes. But OP claims there is no .lib file, but I'm not a Windows developer.

    @jsulm
    A .lib will not do him, as he is using MinGW/gcc. I now see he wrote earlier:

    full file is llibmongocxx.dll.a

    That is an unusual naming convention! If that is really the case, and applies to llibbsoncxx.dll.a too, then it would indeed seem to be as he wrote. But the error message

    g++: error: C:\mongo-cxx-driver\lib\llibbsoncxx.dll: No such file or directory
    

    shows what MinGW seems actually to be looking for, no mention of a .a suffix. So I'm not sure what is going on....

      @jsulm ok, i understand idid this

      LIBS += C:/mongo-cxx-driver/lib/libbsoncxx.dll.a
      
      INCLUDEPATH += C:/mongo-cxx-driver/include/mongocxx/v_noabi
      DEPENDPATH += C:/mongo-cxx-driver/include/mongocxx/v_noabi
      

      included but error that said first remains

      ./release\main.o:main.cpp:(.text+0x1d): undefined reference to `_imp___ZN8mongocxx7v_noabi8instanceC1Ev'
      ./release\main.o:main.cpp:(.text+0xee): undefined reference to `_imp___ZN8mongocxx7v_noabi8instanceD1Ev'
      ./release\main.o:main.cpp:(.text+0x14e): undefined reference to `_imp___ZN8mongocxx7v_noabi8instanceD1Ev'
      

      if you dont know about windows side of this , then its ok.
      @JonB i have doubt , the compiler is mingw 32 and i build the mongdb in mingw 64 is this makes any issues

        @Vivek_A You need to link at least one more lib containing the missing symbols (libmongocxx I guess).

          @Vivek_A said in undefined reference to `_imp___ZN8mongocxx7v_noabi8instanceC1Ev in Qt?:

          LIBS += C:/mongo-cxx-driver/lib/libbsoncxx.dll.a

          This looks much more reasonable than before!

          Now as @jsulm says it looks like you need some further similars for other library files required to link successfully.

          @JonB i have doubt , the compiler is mingw 32 and i build the mongdb in mingw 64 is this makes any issues

          I am not sure what you are saying. It will not be possible to mix 64-bit-compiled code with 32-bit-compiled code in one executable. The compiler's bit-ness is not at issue, rather only whichever bit-ness it is generating code for.

          Start by trying what @jsulm has pointed out, then deal with bit-ness if there is still an error.....

                Try inverting the order of the libraries you are linking.

                  @SGaist tried , still same error , i think its not in the linking of lib, may be the installation or compiler problem... what u think???

                    Hi
                    I saw this line
                    building/deploying project dw_controller (kit: Desktop Qt 5.11.2 MinGW 32bit)

                    but you said " its build using mingw64 "

                    So are your 32 bit app trying to load 64 bit DLL ?

                      @mrjj hi sir, i build and installed mongocxx driver using ming64. The app running in Qt is Desktop Qt 5.11.2 MinGW 32bit, ie a mingw 32 bit compiler

                        The question is: did you build the MongoDB C++ library in 32 or 64 bit ?

                        If the later then you can't use them with to build a 32bit application. Beside compiler, architecture matters as well. You can't mix and match 32 and 64 bit when building librairies or applications.

                            my compiler is mingw32bit and mongocxx driver build in 64 bit . so thats make problem , i solved it by installing 64bit Qt.
