eepe source has multiple .pro files

Hello
revision 394 ,Dated Feb 28th added another .pro file to the src of eepe
https://code.google.com/p/eepe/source/detail?r=394

Having 2 .pro files confuses qmake unless one is specified to the qmake commmand.

What can you tell me about having multiple .pro files regarding reasoning for and the differences of ?
I had been patching the original eepe.pro to meet my needs and can still build a working eepe for linux from that file. Are you planning more extensive changes to the .pro files to require different flavors ?

Code: Select all

tc@tcdev:~/rcboot/src/eepe/src$ diff -b eepe.pro eepeLinux.pro 
1c1,2
< QT += network \
---
> QT += core gui \
>       network \
107c108
< OTHER_FILES +=
---

You may want to consider updating the linux build instructions at https://code.google.com/p/eepe/ to reflect that the .pro file has to be specified to the qmake command

The reason for the 2 .pro files is on windows I'm running Qt 4.7.4, while on linux in a virtualBox, I had to load Qt 4.8.5. I think.
These version differences have caused me to use different .pro files.

I'll look into changing to just one when time permits.

Mike.

thanks. yes my reported success with the .pro was on 4.7.4 but I believe I have also used it with Fedora w 4.8.x . I have noticed different linux distros break up the QT framework a little differently.

I'm in good shape now that I figured it out. I notice you are using the domake script. the checkinstall section of that script you can modify the paramaters that the debian/ubuntu system does when installing ( such as dependencies , revisions, the maintainer, etc)
