QT Plugins, target build order AND BUILT_SOURCES

[Andre Heine]

Hello all,

I've a litte problem to build subproject correctly...

In my Makefile.am are one "bin_programs" and one "lib_LTLIBRARIES".

The plugin is a shared linked library, so that it can loaded into QT's 
designer. The program should test all plugin widgets, features etc...

"bin_programs" has some UI files more, that UI's needed the plugin (.so)

All other source and header files are shared, so all files are in one  
directory...

And that is the problem, the "uic" needs the plugin to load at runtime. The
"uic" will load the plugin via dlopen, so I must build the lib first.

In my Makefile.am I call the "uic" with an extra switch (-L) to add the 
libpath to my shared object:

$(UIC) -L $(top_builddir)/dvplugins/.libs

The "uic" will load the lib and generate some include defines into the qt 
class files. But when uic  can't load the plugin my header is broken;()

Our source are bad organized, because there some file with ".hpp" and some
with ".h". So I must add some extra suffix rules...

When I call "make libCustomPlugin.la && make qplugin" all things works 
correctly. 

"make all" can't build the project...

I had gamble a little with "BUILT_SOURCES", but I can't resolve 
the "cycles"...


Any hints?


Best regards

Andre
