Qt Creator can't find missing libraries

Question

I have referenced the following libraries, but Qt Creator v3.0.1 can't seem to find them.

LIBS += -lueye_api \ -lcv \ -lhighgui

Is it that the libraries have been deprecated? Are there any replacements for these three libraries?

I've google searched my problem and found what may be a start. Is -lopencv_core a suitable replacement for -lcv and is -lopencv_highgui a suitable replacement for -lhighgui?

Answer 1

When the library the project refers to cannot be found in the same directory as .pro file it is practical to refer to other libraries somehow relative to project file directory.

LIBS += -L$$PWD/../third-party -lother

Where the project file directory is located relative to third-party like that:

../project
../third-party

and the other.lib is in:

../third-party/other.lib

Or you just need to provide the path to libraries you use somehow.
