Try:
DEFINES+="SHARE_DIR=/usr/local/share/kphone"

[jevonwang]

expected primary-expression before '/' token
'usr' was not declared in this scope
'local' was not declared in this scope
'share' was not declared in this scope
'kphone' was not declared in this scope
unused variable 'usr'
unused variable 'local'
unused variable 'share'
unused variable 'kphone'

Does
DEFINES += SHARE_DIR=\\\"/usr/local/share/kphone\\\"
do what you want?

Thank you.
It is the kphone source, I'm porting to Qt-Extended 4.4.2, The pro file need a Marco for define a filepath.

For windows build don't forget to comment special chars like &|() with ^ http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/ntcmds_shelloverview.mspx?mfr=true
This chars has higer priority then "" on windows.
