    I'm struggling with getting Qt (on win 10, x64, mingw 32-bit) to create a custom Makefile given the following CMakeLists.txt file:

    which would be great if I could find the Makefile and build the project with it. Where is it stored? Does Qt make use of the CMakeLists.txt file?

    Going to the project's build settings I see that Qt calls cmake like:

    Build: cmake.exe --build . --target all
    

    How can I tell Qt to use the CMakeLists.txt file when building my project?

      Hi,

      Why don't you build also in Qt Creator ?

      If you want to do it from the command line, go to the shadow build folder of your project.

        The build from Qt generates the following set of errors:

        I have a file that uses boost and Qt's syntax highlighter shows that the boost header files cannot be found.

        Qt didn't create a shadow build folder (I created the project from existing sources).

          Where did you get the sources and where is logging coming from ?

            The sources are from github. The logging info is from Qt. I did manage to build and run stockfish (maybe because it's pure C++?) but otherwise I couldn't add any external includes/libraries (such as boost). Qt can't seem to generate a Makefile from the CMakeLists.txt file. When building this rule is, apparently, always used:

            Build: cmake.exe --build . --target all

              @Sebi1729 said in Generating custom Makefiles in Qt:

              The logging info is from Qt

              It isn't:

              D:\Projects\Chess\stockfish-8-src\stockfish-8-src\src\util.h:17:9: error: 'logging' has not been declared
                       logging::add_file_log(logFileName);
              

              How is this output related to Qt?

                @jsulm

                You mean the actual code? It's the logger from boost:

                #include <boost/log/core.hpp>
                #include <boost/log/trivial.hpp>
                #include <boost/log/expressions.hpp>
                #include <boost/log/utility/setup/file.hpp>
                

                How is this output related to Qt?

                This is what I get when building (from Qt) using the above build configuration.

                  Nothing Qt related here, it's CMake that you should take a look at.

                  As the error message suggest the framework is not found, you have to pass it more information in order to find it.
