taglib
Message 1 in thread
I am trying to use taglib v1.3.1 with Qt 4.3.3 using the Qt Eclipse
development environment on Windows XP. I cannot get MinGW to recognize
the library taglib.lib. There seem to be no explicit instructions for
setting up external libraries under the Qt Eclipse environment. How does
one configure <project>.pro or the Project Properties to include an
external library? There also seems to be some confusion over which
parameters are effective between the project Properties in Eclipse and
the .pro file. Can someone direct me please?

When using the Qt Eclipse integration, only the .pro file defines what
goes into the Makefile. You are right that this fact is not documented
clearly enough in order to prevent confusion. We will change that.
In order to link against other libraries, you just need to add
LIBS += -Lpath/to/taglib -ltaglib
to your .pro-file.
Here is the more eloquent documentation:
