I am building an application over QT. I loaded my files to a VC++
console application project.
While trying to compile my classes, I got the following set for
expcetion for all QT related classes. has anybody faced the same
issue? Plz help me out


QT version: 3.2.3
OS : Windows 2000

Exception trace,
--------------------------------------------------------------

Unresolved external errors usually appear due to one of two reasons:
either you used a library function/object but didn't supply the
library to the linker, or you declared a function yourself, used it,
and never defined it.

Which of the two situations is applicable in your case, I don't know.
Try contacting Qt online forum (on TrollTech's web site).

This looks like you have not properly preprocessed your
C++ file, QT massages your raw C++ code and generates
further C++ code through the "moc" compiler. Any class you
derived from a QT-Object requires this step.
You cannot just load a bunch of C++ files into VC++ and
get it to work, you have to do something like:

qmake -project
qmake -tp vc ( generates a .dsp file for VC++)

where qmake is run in the directory of your sources. The first
step creates a QT-project, the second translate the ".pro" file
into a VC++ project which you can run. You will have to do
this every time you add new C++ files which define QT-widgets.
Or, figure out how to setup VC++ to do this.

In QT you have to expand macros (e.g. Q_OBJECT) before
compiling/linking. Have a look at moc, the "meta object compiler".
Infos@Google: "qt moc".

(a) Please don't top-post
(b) Please don't turn this C++ newsgroup into a Qt forum,
they have those at their web site

Thank you.
