Our team is stuck on a problem with connecting MongoDB CXX driver to QtCreator 5.10. We have builded and compiled mongo-c-driver and mongo-cxx-driver with CMake and msbuild (VS 2017 compiler). We created test project in Visual Studio added needed includes, libs, dependencies (also we copied dll files to debug folder) and it worked, we have connected to our MongoDB server. But as we were trying to add those libs to QtCreator project and run test project we got this kind of errors:
C:\Qt-projects\test_mongo\main.cpp:24: error: undefined reference to `_imp___ZN8mongocxx7v_noabi8instanceC1Ev'
We tried every combination of adding to .pro file these commands: LIBS += , INCLUDE_PATH +=. And we also tried to copy dll's to debug/release build folder.
The question is, how properly add all the includes, libs, dll's to .pro file, so the QT project could recognize MongoCXX driver?
P.S. we used this tutorial to create test project in VS2017:
