Kdevelop and moc

[fmalabre]

Hi,

I have a problem with KDevelop. I use version 2.1.2. I tried this for like a week everyday, and still haven't found a way to work on my project.

I create a Normal KDE application with the wizzard. I compile and everything works fine. Then, I create a directory and add some of my files. I add that as a static library.
I run autoconf, automake, configure, and then I try to rebuild everything, and I have the following errors:

=============

If you see the command line used to link, there is no moc file. Also, it seems no moc files are build at all, and I think it is the issue.

Did someone have a similar problem? Any idea on how to fix it?

I found on the Internet in a qt forum a guy who had a similar problem, but there was no reply.

Thanks,
Fred.

Have you added the Q_OBJECT macro to your header files?

[fmalabre]

Well, I haven't changed the files.

I keep the same files created by the wizard. I compile, it works.
Then I add new files in a library, I compile, and it doesn't include moc anymore...

It has nothing to do with the source files, it's something wrong with the project settings somewhere, or with Makefile.am, and that's what I try to figure out, but I'm learning in this, so it's slow...
