qmake

This is the reference page for qmake generator. Go to Integrations/Qmake if you want to learn how to integrate your project or recipes with qmake.

Generates a file named conanbuildinfo.pri that can be used for your qmake builds. The file contains:

• N groups of variables, one group per require, declaring the same individual values: include_paths, libs, bin dirs, libraries, defines etc.

• One group of global variables with the aggregated values for all requirements.

Package declared vars

For each requirement conanbuildinfo.pri file declares the following variables. XXX is the name of the require in uppercase. e.k “ZLIB” for zlib/1.2.8@lasote/stable requirement:

NAME	VALUE
CONAN_XXX_ROOT	Abs path to root package folder.
CONAN_INCLUDEPATH_XXX	Header’s folders
CONAN_LIB_DIRS_XXX	Library folders (default {CONAN_XXX_ROOT}/lib)
CONAN_BINDIRS_XXX	Binary folders (default {CONAN_XXX_ROOT}/bin)
CONAN_LIBS_XXX	Library names to link
CONAN_DEFINES_XXX	Library defines
CONAN_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_XXX	Compile definitions
CONAN_QMAKE_CXXFLAGS_XXX	CXX flags
CONAN_QMAKE_LFLAGS_SHLIB_XXX	Linker flags (shared libs)
CONAN_QMAKE_LFLAGS_APP_XXX	Linker flags (executables)
CONAN_QMAKE_CFLAGS_XXX	C flags

Global declared vars

Conan also declares some global variables with the aggregated values of all our requirements. The values are ordered in the right order according to the dependency tree.

NAME	VALUE
CONAN_INCLUDEPATH	Aggregated header’s folders
CONAN_LIB_DIRS	Aggregated library folders
CONAN_BINDIRS	Aggregated binary folders
CONAN_LIBS	Aggregated library names to link
CONAN_DEFINES	Aggregated library defines
CONAN_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS	Aggregated compile definitions
CONAN_QMAKE_CXXFLAGS	Aggregated CXX flags
CONAN_QMAKE_LFLAGS_SHLIB	Aggregated linker flags (shared libs)
CONAN_QMAKE_LFLAGS_APP	Aggregated linker flags (executables)
CONAN_QMAKE_CFLAGS	Aggregated C flags
