create and use shared library in qt

[bibhukalyana]

Hi everyone,
I tried to create and use a shared library in qt.I used the c++ library project to create this.

code used to create a shared library:

.pro file:



QT -= gui

TARGET = myLIB
TEMPLATE = lib

DEFINES += MYLIB_LIBRARY

SOURCES += mylib.cpp

HEADERS += mylib.h\
myLIB_global.h


.h file



class MYLIBSHARED_EXPORT MyLIB {
public:
MyLIB();
int add(int x,int y);
};

extern "C"
{
int sub(int x,int y);
}


.cpp file :



MyLIB::MyLIB()
{
}
int MyLIB::add(int x, int y)
{
return x+y;
}

int sub(int x, int y)
{
return x-y;
}



In my test application i am able to use sub function.code is


typedef int (*pf)(int,int);
pf fun=(pf)QLibrary::resolve("./libmyLIB.so","sub");
int x=fun(20,10);

It is working.
But when i am trying to use isLoaded function it is returning false.


QLibrary myLib("./libmyLIB.so");
ok=myLib.isLoaded();



My problem is i want to use the function directly without using QLibrary.(only adding in .pro file)
How i will use add function in my application ?

See in the qmake documentation for LIBS, include the header file of your library and use your library classes as usual.

thanks for reply.Can you tell me what should be written in .h file.One prototype or any thing extra.

[Lykurg]

In your case you probably only have to use
#include "mylib.h"
