Create dll file

How do I create a dll file of xpcf?

A new 2.3.1 release is on the go in the next days. I suggest you use the qt creator wizards provided with xpcf to create an xpcf module with your own components.
To build xpcf, you'll need to install, qt creator, pkg-config ( for windows from https://github.com/SolarFramework/binaries/releases/tag/pkgconfig%2Fwin) and conan (from https://conan.io/) (you can follow the How to build part of the readme).
Let me know if any information is missing.

@Firefly35 Qt throws initialization errors while trying to open xpcf.pro. is there any prebuild binaries?

[Firefly35]

Yes indeed, xpcf binaries are available in the SolAR framework context here : https://github.com/SolarFramework/binaries/releases

I'm interested to figure out the problems you had opening xpcf.pro, can you give me more feedback/logs about it please ?
You'll also need the associated boost package version 1.70
A future xpcf release (probably 2.4.0) will use boost statically, removing the need for a third party distribution of boost.

@Firefly35 I have managed to open xpcf.pro with QTCreator. While configuring the project, I'm getting the following error.

builddefs/qmake/templatelibconfig.pri: No such file or directory

You need to clone xpcf repository with sub modules recursively. It will find the building rules afterwards.

Hello, did you succeed to build xpcf ?
