CMake, MinGw and failng linking

**T4ng10r** · 5th December 2015, 14:06

Hi,
I've downloaded and installed Qt5.5 precompiled with MinGw 4.92.
After that I tried to compile my old projects (created with Qt for VisualStudio).
This binary compiles - fails during linkage.

Qt Code:

Here what CMakeLists.txt for main binary looks like http://pastebin.com/Bk5Jq0ZR
g++ (GCC) 4.8.1
In system environment I added variable QT_DIR=d:\Qt\Qt5.5.1\5.5\mingw492_32
and added it to PATH like => %QT_DIR%;%QT_DIR%\bin;%QT_DIR%\include;%QT_DIR%\li b

Obviously, linker can't find proper objects in proposed libraries. Now, should I rebuild entire Qt to fit G++ 4.8? Should I install more recent MinGw version with newer g++? Or some other CMake settings changes are needed?
