I keep getting "Undefined reference to WinMain#16" in Qt Creator - c++

Question

I'm trying to use SDL 2.0 in Qt Creator 3.1, using the Qt Build Suite (QBS) in Windows 7.
I've put the links in my .qbs to locate the SDL folders and I think everything works ok, because in my main.cpp it's recognizing the SDL functions, trying to autocomplete them.
The problem is, whenever I try to compile, I get the 'undefined reference to WinMain#16'
I'm using MinGW and set in the Compiler preferences the linker flags to: -lmingw32 -lSDL2main -lSDL2 -mwindows
The output is:
c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.8.1/../../../../mingw32/lib/libmingw32.a(main.o): In function `main':
e:\p\giaw\src\pkg\mingwrt-4.0.3-1-mingw32-src\bld/../mingwrt-4.0.3-1-mingw32-src/src/libcrt/crt/main.c:91: undefined reference to `WinMain#16'
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
And my .qbs is:
import qbs 1.0
CppApplication {
name: "testeSDL2"
cpp.includePaths: [".",
"C:/SDL2-2.0.3/i686-w64-mingw32/include"]
cpp.libraryPaths: [
"C:/SDL2-2.0.3/i686-w64-mingw32/lib"]
cpp.dynamicLibraries: "SDL2"
files: [
"main.cpp"
]
qbsSearchPaths: "C:/CppLibs/"
}
I've been searching a lot and only find answers for common Qt projects using the .pro but not the .qbs... And there's a section in the SDL site that says it's a linker problem, but I set them in the preferences window, my guess is that I also need to set them somehow in the .qbs file, but I don't have a clue on how to do so. Can anyone help?

Answer 1

As I recall, SDL defines a macro main that expands to some SDL-specific function name.
Find that macro definition and you also find the macro symbol you need to disable that thing.
Oh well maybe this should have been a comment not an answer, but when/if you find that (sorry I don't have time to check those sources) then you can mark this as “the solution”, he he. :-)
Addendum: since the OP kindly posted the SDL code, I've looked at it and found this comment:
“If you provide your own WinMain(), you may define SDL_MAIN_HANDLED”
… before including the SDL headers.
Then the macro called main is not defined.
