how to use .lib file in Qt in Linux

[nthung]

Library files on Linux are typically libsomething.a (static) or libsomething.so (dynamic) not something.lib. You access library files the same way on Linux as you do on Windows. However, the name conventions are different:

LIBS += -L/path/to/search -lsomething

LIBS += -L/path/to/search -lsomething

Is the .lib file from a Windows library? If so, then it isn't useable under Linux.

You will need to find/build the library in the Linux environment.

The lib part of the library file name is implied. You also need to quote the space in the path.

LIBS += $$quote(-L/home/nthung/NVR_Demo_04_06_2010/NVR 8_6_V3/usr/lib)  -lxvidcore

LIBS += $$quote(-L/home/nthung/NVR_Demo_04_06_2010/NVR 8_6_V3/usr/lib)  -lxvidcore
