Bad linking in Qt unit test -- missing the link to the moc file?
- by dwj
I'm trying to unit test a class that inherits QObject; the class itself is located up one level in my directory structure. When I build the unit test I get the standard unresolved errors if a class' MOC file cannot be found:
test.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: virtual void * __thiscall UnitToTest::qt_metacast(char const *)" (?qt_metacast@UnitToTest@@UAEPAXPBD@Z)
+ 2 missing functions
The MOC file is created but appears to not be linking. I've been poking around SO, the web, and Qt's docs for quite a while and have hit a wall.
How do I get the unit test to include the MOC file in the link?
====
My project file is dead simple:
TEMPLATE = app
TARGET = test
DESTDIR = .
CONFIG += qtestlib
INCLUDEPATH += . ..
DEPENDPATH += .
HEADERS += test.h
SOURCES += test.cpp ../UnitToTest.cpp stubs.cpp
DEFINES += UNIT_TEST
My directory structure and files:
C:.
| UnitToTest.cpp
| UnitToTest.h
|
\---test
| test.cpp (Makefiles removed for clarity)
| test.h
| test.pro
| stubs.cpp
|
+---debug
| UnitToTest.obj
| test.obj
| test.pdb
| moc_test.cpp
| moc_test.obj
| stubs.obj
Edit: Additional information
The generated Makefile.Debug shows the moc file missing:
SOURCES = test.cpp \
..\test.cpp \
stubs.cpp debug\moc_test.cpp
OBJECTS = debug\test.obj \
debug\UnitToTest.obj \
debug\stubs.obj \
debug\moc_test.obj
