How to suppress warnings for file included from header

gcc, qmake, qt, suppress-warnings

Solution

You need to suppress each directory separately. Example from my project:

QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -isystem "$$[QT_INSTALL_HEADERS]/qt5" -isystem "$$[QT_INSTALL_HEADERS]/qt5/QtWidgets" \
                  -isystem "$$[QT_INSTALL_HEADERS]/QtXml" -isystem "/usr/include/qt5/QtGui" \
                  -isystem "$$[QT_INSTALL_HEADERS]/QtCore"

Or, to automate the above for the exact Qt modules you have enabled:

for (inc, QT) {
    QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -isystem \"$$[QT_INSTALL_HEADERS]/Qt$$system("echo $$inc | sed 's/.*/\u&/'")\"
}

# Still need this separately:
QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -isystem "$$[QT_INSTALL_HEADERS]/qt5"

Problem

I use GCC `-Weffc++` option in my Qt project. To suppress warnings from Qt headers i add `QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -isystem $(QTDIR)\include`. But this doesn't suppress all warnings, i still get annoying warnings from QUuid class because `$(QTDIR)\include\QtCore\quuid.h` file includes `..\..\src\corelib\plugin\quuid.h`. I tried to add `QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -isystem $(QTDIR)\src` and `QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -isystem $(QTDIR)\src\corelib\plugin` but it didn't help. Is there a way to fix this?
