[Qt Creator 10] Qmake

jhayar

Hi ,
would like to ask if this is really expected ? after updating may Qt Creator 9 to 10 , qmake is now missing in build system when i creating Qt Quick Application , only QBS and Cmake is available , but it is available when i create a QT Widget , ?

if yes that is expected , any way i can use qmake in QtQuick app just like in Qt Creator 9?

qmake is a great tool for mobile app ,
it has the ability to set info.plist, launch storyboard, objective c++ wrappers , and assets file easily , i know there is also in CMake , but i don't know how as well as in QBS .

Thanks

They didn't announce it, but it was done on purpose: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-28964

This is because there are many new QML features now that are only supported under CMake.

You can still use qmake for Qt Quick apps if you want. Copy an existing *.pro file from an older project.

Strange behavior! The great Qt 5.15 is still there and it lakes on CMake so why Qt company force users to migrate?
Is there any chance to enable it if I build QtC myself?

It's still available - but not for new QML projects since noone will add the new features to qmake. But when you add them then qmake can also be used for new QML projects.
