Qt Creator does not read build configurations

GreenSnake

Hi.
I am trying to make qt creator use build configurations from a CMakeLists.txt.

Here it is:

cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 2.6)
project(test)

set(CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES "MyDebug;MyRelease" CACHE STRING "" FORCE)

add_executable(test main.cpp)

Opening it via FIle -> Open file or project

But there is no my specific configurations, only standard ones (Debug, Release, ReleaseWithDebugInfo and Minimal size release).

What I am doing wrong?
Or maybe qt creator cannot read configurations from cmake?

Creator does not look for CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES: The flag is used to set which things to build in a multi-configuration generator. AFAICT only the Visual Studio (and the X code one?) generators are multi-configuration, all the others will ignore that value anyway.

In Creator multi-configuration generators are not supported too well in the first place. E.g. you will see duplicate nodes in the project tree when you enable several configurations at the same time. I think the Ninja generator produces the best results right now.
