Hi,
I am developing an application in Qt 5.2.1.
The application outputs dll.
If I compile my application alone it is compiling without any errors and generating .dll, .tlb and .idl files successfully.
But if I link any static libs from other projects, my application is giving a compile error (error: [release\QtSTLViewerAddIn1.dll] Error 3 (ignored)).
and my .idl file is not getting generated.
Is there any fix for this ?
here is my compile output :
