Qt Creator 11 - CMake update
June 14, 2023 by Cristian Adam | Comments
Below, you have two new CMake features in Qt Creator 11:
Project file management
With Qt Creator 11, it is possible to add new / existing files to a CMake target. Renaming and deleting of source files via the project tree is also supported.
Qt Creator will look after the add_executable
, add_library
, qt_add_executable
, qt_add_library
function calls and add the source / resource files at the end.
If a custom CMake API is being used, a target_sources
function call will be used instead.
Widgets Example
Qt Quick Example
For Qt Quick projects the qt_add_qml_module
function is located. The added files will be prefixed with QML_FILES
, SOURCES
or RESOURCES
function arguments.
CMakePresets reloading
Qt Creator 11 will display a CMake Presets project tree item for quicker CMake Presets access.
In the Build menu, there is a Reload CMake Presets entry which will re-create the Kits from the CMakePresets json files.
