environment variables - How to add library paths in Qt Creator like LIBPATH in Visual Studio? -
question
a) how add library paths project should depended libraries in qt creator?
b) how settings in project >> run >> build environment related similar in .pro file? environment variable listed there applies .pro file (well don't) exactly?
context/details:
visual studio has various environment variables folders project looks include files, library files or executable files etc. rather confusing in qt creator , havne't seen documentation on it.
the thing obvious includepath
variable points directories include files (.h)
however how set library paths, path should dependent libraries/dlls etc? can specify exact library libs
variable in .pro file, there don't seem equivalent of libpath variable should other libraries if not found in current folder.
i have worked around adding library path following way using libs variable dropping library file name , seems work , add path don't see documented anywhere.
libs += -l"$$_pro_file_pwd_/xerces/bin/"
but makes things more interesting settings in projects >> select 'run' current configuration , expand run environment
settings.
here there lib variable , libpath variable there not .pro environment available. says here these settings local user , saved in .pro.user
file perhaps suggest it's different way set doesn't how set them in .pro file suggest set them there if want apply users!
likewise there dependpath , vpath , not used for.
i don't have enough rep add comments question, adding comment in form of answer. pretty new qt , have been developing qt gui application on linux.
i set ld_library_path
environment variable path qt libraries. not sure how helpful since using visual studio on windows.
