I'm starting to mess with Qt, and I've had no issues compiling projects within their IDE. Commandline has been a different story. Qt Creator is cool and all, but I need to automate my builds.
It doesn't get much more simple than this:
untitled.pro contents:
SOURCES += \
source.cpp
source.cpp contents:
int main()
{
return 0;
}
In the compile output, it's apparently doing this:
C:\Qt\Qt5.5.1_x64\Tools\QtCreator\bin\jom.exe -f Makefile.Debug
So, I open CMD.exe, and run the following:
C:\MyProjectDir>C:\Qt\Qt5.5.1_x64\5.5\msvc2013_64\bin\qmake.exe
That made my debug, release, .qmake.stash, Makefile, Makefile.Debug, and Makefile.Release files and directories.
Next, I ran:
C:\MyProjectDir>C:\Qt\Qt5.5.1_x64\Tools\QtCreator\bin\jom.exe -f Makefile.Debug
And I'm always getting this error:
LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'shell32.lib' jom: C:\MyProjectDir\Makefile.Debug [debug\untitled.exe] Error 1104
What am I doing wrong? I also gave nmake a shot, but that didn't work either. I'd rather use jom.
For this specific project, it's using the msvc2013_64-5.5.1 pre-comp'd installer
Edit: Since nmake was mentioned in the comments, here is the error output for nmake:
LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'shell32.lib' NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\bin\link.EXE"' : return code '0x49d' Stop. NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\bin\nmake.exe"' : return code '0x2' Stop.
