Re: [Dev-C++] Compiling QT programs with devcpp

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

A note about your makefile.

-L should be used to specify a library directory, i.e. a directory to
search for named library files.

-l is used to specify the name of libraries to include in the linking.

Finally, it is possible to specify the full name (including path) of a
library without any parameter at all, i.e. just like object files are
specified.

MinGW can make use of both libxx.a and xx.lib libraries. The important
factor is how the symbols in the library are exported. Naming and calling
conventions, memory layout etc. normally vary between compilers unless the
exported symbols are specified to use a commonly agreed about standard.
