[Interest] qmake: Building a shared object which is not a lib
Hi there, I would like to build a shared object (PySide module) using qmake. My first attempt was to use TEMPLATE=lib, which worked except that I have no control on the name of the output file. Is there a way to override the name of the generated shared object file? Basically using TEMPLATE=lib, the generated file is called libXYZ.so.1.0.0 (and the usual links to it up to libXYZ.so). I would like to generate instead XYZ.so, without any versioning, links, etc... Any help would be grateful. Chris -- Christian Gagneraud, Embedded systems engineer.

Why do you want to remove the lib prefix btw? Because this is not a typical unix library, this is a python module and as such it has to be named XYZ.so. Then from python you can do an import XYZ. If you name it libXYZ.so, you'll have to do import libXYZ. IIRC, qmake also has either a plugin config option or even a template for that. I'd suggest to look at an example for a qt plugin, for example a designer plugin or something in the qtcreator sources. Plugins have the same logic to drop the lib prefix since they are loaded direct,y via dlopen.

Thanks a lot for pointing me out this, after googling a bit I found how to do exactly why I needed: QT += core CONFIG += link_pkgconfig plugin no_plugin_name_prefix PKGCONFIG += pyside TARGET = XYZ TEMPLATE = lib SOURCES = ... HEADERS = ... Easy baby! ;) And I guess (hope) that it is cross-platform friendly. Now I just need to get the wrapper generation handled by qmake as well.
