Adding an existing library to a project.

[wysota]

Assuming you are using qmake to build your project, you need to add a LIBS directive to tell the compiler to link against your library. If the library is placed in a directory not usually looked into by the linker, you need to inform the compiler about that location (by adding a -L<directory> entry to LIBS).

I think I tried that already, in the .pro page I wrote
LIBS += -L(path to lib file's directory) -llibname
It still writes "unresolved external....."
I guess its something small im missing, hopefully.
Thanks for the reply

(path to lib file's directory)

Does this path have spaces in it? If so, you probably need to put it in quotes. What is the actual name of the library?

What is the actual error you are getting? Did you verify the library exports that missing symbol?
