Qt pro file call another makefile

makefile, qmake, qt

Solution

Something like this should work:

QMAKE_EXTRA_TARGETS += other
PRE_TARGETDEPS += other
other.commands = make -f /other/path/Makefile

this will cause `make -f /other/path/Makefile` to be called as part of the make process, and will also give you the ability to type `make other` to just run that command.

Problem

Is there a way to use the .pro file in Qt to call another Makefile? For example, in a makefile, you could use: ``` make -f /other/path/Makefile ``` Is there anything like using the pro file for Qt?
