Description
Code
# Pro2VcxprojTest.pro QT -= gui SOURCES += main.cpp myresources.files = hello.json myresources.prefix = / RESOURCES += myresources
Steps to reproduce
- Use "Extensions" > "Qt VS Tools" > "Open Qt Project File (.pro)..." to import the attached project
- Try to build the project
Outcomes
warning MSB8027: Two or more files with the name of qrc_qmake_myresources.cpp will produce outputs to the same location. This can lead to an incorrect build result. The files involved are Debug\qrc_qmake_myresources.cpp, Debug\qrc_qmake_myresources.cpp.
Workarounds
- Manually right-click one of the .qrc files and select "Exclude From Project", OR
- Instead of using "inline" resources, put them under a .qrc file in the .pro file before importing, OR
- Instead of using the Qt VS Tools extension, use the console to run `qmake.exe -tp vc -r Pro2VcxprojTest.pro`. This generates a project that correctly excludes one of the .qrc files
