qwt_plot_svgitem Object File not Created

[Uwe]

Probably you have built Qwt without SVG support - the reason for this might be that your Qt libs have been built without SVG support.
Do you see a warning when calling qmake for qwt/src.pro ?

Hey Uwe,

Your comment pointed me where to look at the qwtconfig.pri file. I didn't see a warning related to SVG but I did uncomment the line

QWT_CONFIG += QwtSvg

and the qwt+plot_svgitem.o file is thankfully created. However now QSvgGenerator isn't compiling leading to errors in the qwt files reliant on it. I have tried adding QT += svg to a couple points in the src.pro file and the qwt.pro like in the pervasive examples online without success. Is there secondary place like in qwtconfig.pri where SVGGenerator would be implemented?

Sincerely
Me

The QSvg classes are part of Qt and your problem seems to be, that your version of Qt has not been built with SVG support. So if you want to use the SVG classes you have to rebuild Qt.
