[Qbs] Including project files matching git submodules

Hi,
I'm trying to build a repository for multiple libraries and applications, where
every product is located in an own submodule. Right now I'm at this point:
root/
- all.qbs
- libs/
- libs.qbs
- up.qbs
- lib1/
- lib1.qbs
- lib2/
- lib2.qbs
Lib2 needs lib1. The file contents are as follows (striped to what I think is
relevant):
lib1.qbs
Product {
name: "Lib1"
Export { cpp.includePaths: ["./include"] }
}
lib2.qbs
Project {
references: ["../up.qbs"]
Depends { name: "Lib1" }
}
up.qbs
Project { references: ["../all.qbs"] }
all.qbs
Project { references: ["libs/libs.qbs"] }
libs.qbs
Project { references: ["lib1/lib1.qbs", "lib2/lib2.qbs"] }
Trying to compile lib2 I get the message "Cycle detected while referencing file
'lib2/lib2.qbs'." And the Include-Path is not added (although QtCreator did find
the headers for auto completion).
The message is clear, but not how do I solve this problem? I want the libraries
to be able to use other libraries, without knowing their path, only their name.
I'm willing to use something like my up.qbs here or maybe a function to filter
out the current root qbs (in my case lib2.qbs) from the references list, but I
don't know if this is possible and if how to do it. I have right now no
experience in QML/JS.
Can anybody help me, or show another solution to my problem?
Many thanks in advance,
Björn.
