I am trying to include a 3rd party Qt made static library in my Qt project thread. Whenever I instantiate an instance of the class, however, I get the following linker error:
Quote:
Error 1 error LNK2005: "public: __thiscall QString::QString(char const *)" (??0QString@@QAE@PBD@Z) already defined in QtCored4.lib(QtCored4.dll) c:\Source\QT4_Core\PMD Monitor\PmdClientApi.lib 1
And about a hundred more just like that. All having to do with QString.

Please, don't double post and use [code] tags only for code snippets.
How can I delete an old post when I put it on the wrong forum? If I knew how, I wouldn't have double-posted.
You can't delete posts. If your post was in a wrong section, I would move it.Quote:

But I don't know if there is some solution that would allow you to leave that library untouched.
Do you mean editing the header files to point at my local Qt before the included lib? Or something else?
Thank You!
No, you have to recompile that 3rd party library.Quote:
