qmake and recursive linking.

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      It would be nice if QMake did not do recursive linking.

      In a world of dynamic linking, there is no need to link everything
      recursively. Like no need to do -laudio -lpng if you don't use symbols from
      libaudio or libpng directly in your software.

      Recursive linking are only relevant for static linking which usually aren't
      used, at least on modern unix-like platforms.
