Resource problem

[lipos123]

Hi all,

I am facing a problem when adding images to my resources file.
my resource file is about 27.1 Kb, and everything is working fine.But when I add a new image to the resources, the following errors occurs :
":-1: error: Recipe linkandpostlink failed with exit code 1"
":-1: error: The make-engine exited with errors."

Note that If I run the project on the simulator, it works.
Any suggestion concerning this issue ?

Hi lipos123

You might reached resource compiler limits. You can split your application resources into several parts and implement dynamic resource loading --- maybe such way you reach memory consumption optimization also

To start , just split your application resource in two and check the build error is gone. If the build error persists thus something wrong with your resource file, my assumption about reaching resource compiler limits is incorrect and you have to fix the resource itself. Please let me know of the result

Dear izinin,

I have tried to add 2 and 3 resources (.qrc) to my application and split the images, but the error still appear when running the project on Symbian Device. So it's not a matter of resource capacity.
Any idea ?

Hi Lipos123

Just to be sure your project config is valid and the problem is in Qt build system, create with project creation master dummy "Hello World" project with your resources included. If the problem is gone, examine your project config against dummy, otherwise try to find problematic resource item that troubles your project by excluding one-by-one items from the resources.

Except that i don't have any more ideas. Perhaps you will need to avoid resource use --- not big loss i think. What is the advantages in resource use --- is it just to see your project is nice structured?

Hey izinin,

I've tried the dummy text project and it works fine :S weird??? and what do you mean by checking the project config ? you mean ".pro" ????

Hi,

yes , i meant comparing *.pro files in dummy project and yours -- i don't have any special ideas about it -- that is just generic advise. What about not using resources? is it possible for your application
