Question

I have a Qt-project that builds a dll/shared-library and another Qt-project that tests the library.

Is there any good way to have qmake copy the dll to the output-folder of the test-project?

Answer 1

Add this to your pro file:

target.path = ../testProject/$$TARGET
INSTALLS += target

Answer 2

# Copy the dynamic library.
win32 {
   QMAKE_PRE_LINK=copy /Y libqextserialportsrcuildqextserialportd.dll debug & copy /Y libqextserialportsrcuildqextserialport.dll release
}
else {
   # TODO: Unices
}

This works, for the QextSerialPort library. Supports Qt s debug_and_release mode.

QMAKE_POST_LINK also works, but will throw an error if you re trying to run the app immediately: then your .dll will be copied too late. QMAKE_PRE_LINK does copy it in time.

Answer 3

I use INSTALLS, like so. (qmake documentation)

Answer 4

This may not be a good way but it may do the trick.

QMAKE_POST_LINK += some shell command to copy the dll

Answer 5

You can use DESTDIR keyword as it is said in qmake files documetation in Qt 4.

Answer 6

QMAKE_POST_LINK += $$QMAKE_COPY $$quote("yourSrcDiryour.dll") $$quote($$IN_PWD) $$escape_expand(\n\t)
