Description Symeon Huang 2014-12-01 20:46:56 UTC 
Forgive me because I've sent an email and then open an issue here.

The commands are:
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/tmp/qca -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF ..
make

Then, the error messages showed.

Any ideas would be grateful.

I have to note that this error is reproducible on Windows as well. Using the QCA-2.1.0 source.
Comment 1 Ivan Romanov 2014-12-01 20:56:26 UTC 
Try to build without tests and examples, use -DBUILD_TESTS=OFF
Comment 2 Ivan Romanov 2014-12-01 20:57:22 UTC 
Which version of Qt do you use?
Comment 3 Symeon Huang 2014-12-07 22:34:36 UTC 
Qt 5.3.2 both on Windows and Linux.

I tried with -DBUILD_TESTS=OFF but end up with same error. It seems the error would definitely happen if you link the library to any executable that import the static library.
Comment 4 Albert Astals Cid 2020-01-25 10:36:08 UTC 
Is this still a problem?
