Problem in using Custom Widget

[cutie.monkey]

Hi All,

I have created a custom widget, e.i, a label with a clicked() signal. It is properly showing in Qt Designer and I was able to add it on my project UI. The problem is during the compilation of my project, the following error occurred:


release/employeeentry.o:employeeentry.cpp:(.text$_ZN16Ui_E mployeeEntry7setupUiEP7QDialog[Ui_EmployeeEntry::setupUi(QDialog*)]+0x3f1): undefined reference to `_imp___ZN7HSLabelC1EP7QWidget'

Below are the codes of my custom label plugin:

HSLabel.pro


CONFIG += designer plugin
TARGET = $$qtLibraryTarget($$TARGET)
TEMPLATE = lib
QTDIR_build:DESTDIR = $$QT_BUILD_TREE/plugins/designer

CONFIG += release
HEADERS += \
hslabel.h \
customwidgetplugin.h

SOURCES += \
hslabel.cpp \
customwidgetplugin.cpp

target.path = $$[QT_INSTALL_PLUGINS]/designer
sources.files = $$SOURCES $$HEADERS *.pro
sources.path ="D:\Qt\HSLabel"
INSTALLS += target sources


customwidgetplugin.cpp

}

}

Please help, I'm stuck here.. Thanks..:confused:

I think you need to link to the widget too, not just include the source code.
