Qwt-based code works fine in command prompt, but not from within QtCreator

[maduar]

Hi all

I´ve built a small app using Qwt with .pro file like this:

QT += opengl \
    sql \
    svg \
    xml
LIBS += c:/qwt-5.2.0/lib/qwt5.dll c:/qwt-5.2.0/lib/qwtd5.dll
INCLUDEPATH += c:/qwt-5.2.0/src
DEFINES += QWT_DLL
CONFIG += debug_and_release
TARGET = qtcreator2
TEMPLATE = app
SOURCES += main.cpp \
    mainwindow.cpp \
    plotterwidgetqwt.cpp
HEADERS += mainwindow.h \
    plotterwidgetqwt.h
FORMS += mainwindow.ui \
    plotterwidgetqwt.ui
RESOURCES += mdi.qrc

QT += opengl \
    sql \
    svg \
    xml
LIBS += c:/qwt-5.2.0/lib/qwt5.dll c:/qwt-5.2.0/lib/qwtd5.dll
INCLUDEPATH += c:/qwt-5.2.0/src
DEFINES += QWT_DLL
CONFIG += debug_and_release
TARGET = qtcreator2
TEMPLATE = app
SOURCES += main.cpp \
    mainwindow.cpp \
    plotterwidgetqwt.cpp
HEADERS += mainwindow.h \
    plotterwidgetqwt.h
FORMS += mainwindow.ui \
    plotterwidgetqwt.ui
RESOURCES += mdi.qrc

Inside QtCreator, I guess I´ve set all properly (Qt location C:\Qt\2009.04\qt, gdb location C:\Qt\2009.04\mingw\bin\gdb.exe, etc), and the code compiles ok. In fact, from a command prompt with proper path to qwt5.dll and qwtd5.dll, both release and debug executables work fine.
But when I run from within QtCreator (Ctrl+R), the app doesn´t start and I get:

C:\<MyPath>qtcreator2\debug\qtcreator2.exe exited with code -1073741515

What could be wrong???? Tks.

try copying the qwtd5.dll/qwt5.dll into your debug/release folder

Hi, Schnitzel! That worked.

Now I figured out that I can also set the path to the libs, by selecting "Projects->Run Settings" and editing the PATH var, adding "C:\Qwt-5.2.0\lib", just to avoid copying the dlls to every release/debug subdir. This worked as well.

Thanks a lot!

I was using MSVC++ to compile my qt codes and I decided to use QtCreator from now on
however the problem is I can't compile my existing code in this enviroment. I also use qwt dlls in my code and I couldn't get it to work although I added the lib path just like you said to the PATH variable.
The error I get is:

error: undefined reference to`QwtPlotMarker::setXValue(double)'
error: undefined reference to `QwtPlotGrid::enableXmin(bool)'
... many other qwt components but the same error

error: undefined reference to`QwtPlotMarker::setXValue(double)'
error: undefined reference to `QwtPlotGrid::enableXmin(bool)'
... many other qwt components but the same error

these errors are raising from a cpp file which includes (everything I use, and it was enough for MSVC++ enviroment ) :

#include <qwt_plot.h>
#include <qwt_plot_curve.h>
#include <qwt_plot_zoomer.h>
#include <qwt_legend.h>
#include <qwt_plot_marker.h>
#include <qwt_symbol.h>
#include <qwt_legend_item.h>
#include <qwt_plot_grid.h>
#include <qwt_painter.h>

#include <qwt_plot.h>
#include <qwt_plot_curve.h>
#include <qwt_plot_zoomer.h>
#include <qwt_legend.h>
#include <qwt_plot_marker.h>
#include <qwt_symbol.h>
#include <qwt_legend_item.h>
#include <qwt_plot_grid.h>
#include <qwt_painter.h>

interestingly intelli sense recognize all of these variables.. anyways here is my .pro file:

TARGET = myProgramsName
CONFIG += qt thread release console
CONFIG -= flat
CONFIG -= console
QT += xml
MOC_DIR = moc
UI_DIR = UI
 
FORMS +=  allmyUIFiles
 
RESOURCES += source/GUI/ui.qrc
 
win32 {
 RC_FILE = source/GUI/mcmm-gui.rc
 
  INCLUDEPATH += d:/qt-all-opensource-src-4.4.0/qwt-5.1.1/include/
 
 LIBS +=  -L"source\mcmm" -lqwt5 \
         -L"source\mcmm" -lgeneralAP \
         -L"source\mcmm" -naca0015CLCD
}
 
HEADERS +=  paths of all headers files..  
 
SOURCES += paths of all my source codes..

}

HEADERS +=  paths of all headers files..  

SOURCES += paths of all my source codes..

I guess the key thing is here the INCLUDEPATH and LIBS
I copied qwt5.lib to my source folder thinking that giving the full path instead would be causing the problem, however didn't solve anything..

I'm a little bit lost here, please help!
