QMake DEPENDPATH

[lalesculiviu]

Hello!

I have a project, an application, split into 2 directories, each containing sources and headers, like:

fet

engine


rules.h


rules.cpp

interface


fet.h


fet.cpp


interface.pro

I compile the project with


qmake interface.pro

interface.pro used to contain this:


INCLUDEPATH += . ../engine

The target is app (an application compiled with rules.cpp and fet.cpp from the engine+interface subdirectories).

But today I read that I should also add the directive:


DEPENDPATH += . ../engine

so that when I change a header file, the application is updated.

Am I right to add the DEPENDPATH directive this way?
