LNK1181: cannot open input file 'D:\programs\gdcm-2.6.2\qt-build\bin.obj'

I have built debug and release configurations of gdcm 2.6.2 using cmake followed by ALL_BUILD option in MS-VS 2013. When i try to link the libraries so created in my Qt 5.5.1 Project, i get the error:

LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'D:\programs\gdcm-2.6.2\qt-build\bin.obj'

The details of the console log are:

My .pro file is this:

I have spent the whole day, building gdcm inside both Qt creator and MS visual studio, using MS-VS compiler 2013 (64-bit) . but no good. Please help !!!

Solution

  • A small typo, I forgot to put the -L flag in library path:

    LIBS+= "D:\programs\gdcm-2.6.2\qt-build\bin"

    So when i amended it to 

    LIBS+= -L"D:\programs\gdcm-2.6.2\qt-build\bin"

    it compiled!!!
