[Interest] Obtaining TARGET value from .pro file before compiling

[gsmember gs]

Thank you for your answer.
Unfortunately that is what I want avoid.
I really need a method to obtain (of course if it is possible) the TARGET value.

      Hello,

        I wanted to ask if it is possible to obtain the TARGET
          value for using in my application from the .pro file.

        All I have found are methods to get values from
          DEFINES, but I need the TARGET value.

        Please help me, thank you!

        
    
    

    Well, I'm not sure if this addresses specifically what
      you're after, but you can place the TARGET value into a DEFINE,
      and that will get passed to your build on the command line.  So,
      in your *.pro file, you would add this somewhere after you have
      defined TARGET:

    

        DEFINES += TARGET=$$TARGET

    

    If your TARGET is, say, "MyProject", then you'll have
      "-DTARGET=MyProject" (or "TARGET=MyProject" listed in the
      PreprocessorDefinitions of your Visual Studio project) when your
      code is built.
