Is there a way to configure Qt project (.pro) to use specific Qt Kit using command line?

I mean these settings:

Is there a tool like sdktool but for configuring projects?

Hi,

AFAIK, no. The most simple is to use the full path to the qmake version of the kit you want to use.

Hi,
Will it create a .pro.user file? Or just qmake build files?

No, .pro.user files are Qt Creator generated.

Under windows you use the shell for the kit. There is a 5.12.5 shell for instance in the Qt menu added to the application menus of Windows. Not sure how to do that in Linux.

My goal is to install Qt Version, create Qt Kit for it, and configure the project to use this kit, so that I do not have to do it manually in Qt Creator.

I have no idea how to do that. Maybe look at the source for Qt Creator to see how it does this?
