This question is related to this one I posted earlier : How to include a library in a Qt project.
I'm trying to create Qt a project that uses the TagLib library. I'm not really sure of how exactly to go about it.
I have downloaded TagLib 1.11.1.
I built it following steps in this tutorial:
Build zlib, by first having CMake create a Visual Studio solution file, then building this solution with Visual Studio:
mkdir build && cd build cmake .. -G"Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="e:\workspace\lib\installed" msbuild /P:Configuration=Debug INSTALL.vcxproj msbuild /P:Configuration=Release INSTALL.vcxproj
Build TagLib much in the same way:
cd ....\taglib-1.11.1 mkdir build && cd build cmake .. -G"Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="e:\workspace\lib\installed" -DZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR="e:\workspace\lib\installed\include" -DZLIB_LIBRARY="e:\workspace\lib\installed\lib\zlib.lib" -DWITH_ASF=on -DWITH_MP4=on -DBUILD_EXAMPLES=on msbuild /P:Configuration=Release INSTALL.vcxproj
This building procedure doesn't seem to work in a Qt project.
Could somebody please point me in the right direction as to how to build taglib Release 1.11.1 (Windows 10).
Something in the direction like what is HERE** could really be helpful. I'm starting up on C++ and documentation on building liblaries is really limited. It could save a lot of time, for anyone else trying to build liblaries for use on Qt.
Thank you all in advance.
