error: Unknown module(s) in QT: serialport

[aguleo]

Hi

I'm trying to build the example on this wiki: http://qt-project.org/wiki/QtSerialPort
I'm using Qt5 and Debian Wheezy.

After building and installing the libraries (i think), when i try to build the application e get:
error: Unknown module(s) in QT: serialport

My .pro is like this.

#-------------------------------------------------

# Project created by QtCreator 2013-03-09T10:12:11

QT  += serialport

TARGET = serial01
CONFIG   += console
CONFIG   -= app_bundle
 
TEMPLATE = app
 
 
SOURCES += main.cpp

        serial.setPort(info);
        if (serial.open(QIODevice::ReadWrite))
            serial.close();
    }

    return a.exec();
}

There also seeams to be a problem with the QT_USE_NAMESPACE_SERIALPORT

What is missing here?

How did you install the library?

[aguleo]

#1 - downloaded the code from http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qtserialp...tarball/master

#2 - uncompressed it to ~/Downloads/qt-qtserialport

#3 - created a buil location ~/Downloads/qt-qtserialportbuild$

#4 - In #3 folder executed
qmake ../qt-qtserialport/qtserialport.pro
make
su -c "make install"

Looking better ...there seems to be no .so library! Where showld it be?

And i have:

From what I see it should be in the same directory as your Qt libraries.

The examples in the "example" folder build correctly, and i was able to do basic serial communication.
The errors i mentioned above must be related to Qt version!
