Testing QT app with non-standard QT dll names
Hello community, We have been using TestComplete for many years on .NET apps and now need to use it on a QT app. The QT dlls used by the app are named with a prefix. We cannot easily change this ...

Hi,
Qt is not a popular topic in the Community, so I think it is a good idea to create Support ticket via https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/message/ form in addition to your question here.
I do not have significant knowledge about Qt and thus not sure what was the reason for your developers to use custom dll names, but the idea I have is to ask developers to create (or autogenerate) proxy dlls with required names (so that TestComplete can access them as it expects) and make those proxy dlls to transfer function calls to relevant functions in your custom dlls.
Will this work?
Hi Alex,
I have created the formal support request with SmartBear. Thanks for the suggestion.
The idea of creating proxy dlls that call into our dlls is interesting but beyond the scope of the problem at hand. I may be wrong but it seems a trivial thing for TestComplete to access these dlls by a different name. The names should not be so deeply ingrained in the code as to make them unreachable from the TestComplete UI. Hopefully they can provide some kind of workaround or patch for us.
Thanks,
Adam
