Unsolved QtCreator and call conan inside the ide - cmake: command not found

[Kintawesar]

I'am trying to use conan package manager with QtCreator and cmake with https://github.com/conan-io/cmake-conan wrapper, so I have installed cmake 3.17.3 and conan using brew

After that conan downloaded all dependencies of sdl2_image but it was not able to find cmake for build the library with errors:

sdl2_image/2.0.5@bincrafters/stable: Calling build()
/bin/sh: cmake: command not found

cmake command from QtCreator

Running /usr/local/Cellar/cmake/3.17.3/bin/cmake /Users/kirillprohorenkov/Documents/Projects/cpp_starter_project '-GCodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles' -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:FILEPATH=/usr/bin/clang++ -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER:STRING=/usr/bin/clang -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH:STRING= -DCPP_STARTER_USE_SDL:BOOL=ON -DENABLE_TESTING:BOOL=OFF -DWARNINGS_AS_ERRORS:BOOL=OFF in /Users/kirillprohorenkov/Documents/Projects/cpp_starter_project/build

So, I've tried to perform these command by hand:

cd build && cmake /Users/kirillprohorenkov/Documents/Projects/cpp_starter_project '-GCodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles' -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:FILEPATH=/usr/bin/clang++ -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER:STRING=/usr/bin/clang -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH:STRING= -DCPP_STARTER_USE_SDL:BOOL=ON -DENABLE_TESTING:BOOL=OFF  ../

and library has built successfully.

Used version of software:

• Operating System Mac os x 10.14.6
• Compiler+version: Apple LLVM version 10.0.1 (clang-1001.0.46.4)
• Conan version: 1.25.2
• Qtcreator 4.11.0

Does QtCreator remove cmake from PATH when calling from inside the IDE?
Any workaround and etc?

Hi and welcome to devnet,

One thing you can try is to nuke the build folder, the .pro.user file in your project directory and re-open the project in Qt Creator.

IIRC, you can also set the cmake version used in your Kit. You should check what you have there.

[Kintawesar]

@SGaist clear the build folder, reopen IDE are the first things I have done.
I also tried to call cmake version inside of QtCreator(in CmakeLists.txt) like this:

execute_process(COMMAND cmake --version)

but the version string was empty. My suggest is problem with conan in it

[SGaist]

Did you check whether the cmake path was set in your kit ?

[Kintawesar]

@SGaist yes, cmake path in kit is /usr/local/bin/cmake
Cmake was detected by QtCreator

[SGaist]

Can you provide a minimal project that shows that behavior ?
