Yup. And also: many of the CONFIG options that have been discussed in this
thread aren't mentioned in the documents at all. QtCreator uses
'declarative_debug'. Where is that documented? Similarly for
"static_and_shared".

Since the docs are stale, where can I look in the source code to get an
understanding of the CONFIG options?

So, CONFIG+= static_and_shared should do your trick (if CONFIG doesn't get

Thank you!

If I do that, is QtCreator smart enough to update the SOURCES variable (and
so forth) in the .pri file?

Oh. And before I forget: Thank you!
