I'm working on a scene editor for my engine. My engine is a 3D engine with SPARK integrated for particles. And the editor uses Qt for GUI. I've compiled and run an example with my engine, and SPARK gets compiled fine. My problem is when I try to compile it in my editor. I get these errors:

None of these show up in my other test application. I know I've linked everything correctly because I can initialize my physics module fine, which doesn't have any dependency on SPARK, and it has library files and headers in the same place for it's dependencies.

I found out it was actually a dependency problem and had to do with my preprocessor defines.
Sorry for such a dumb question on my first post.
