    I was trying to add the vtk library to my QT project but I need CMake, and my project is using qmake.
    Is there anyway to install the vtk library without CMake using only qmake?

    My version is QT: 6.4.0
    QTCreator: 9.0.1
    Thank you.

      sure you can. Simply add include paths and lib names of all VTK components you need to your project pro file.

        @JoeCFD Could you send the link of resource to install ?
        I read https://vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Configure_and_Build and https://forum.qt.io/topic/109435/add-vtk-library-to-qt-project, but I could not find the correct way

          @Monra1738
          you build it from the source. You select what you need in the build. I did it before, but not any more.
          Check this out. Try it out and post the issues here if you have some in the build.

              @Monra1738 You may also think to switch to cmake since cmake is preferred from Qt6. There is a tool to convert pro projects to cmake ones

                I am using c++, this tool I think is just for python.
                Anyway whithout CMake it is possible, because I try to add the new version of VTK 9.2.5 and I can not used.

                  So what?
                  This tool is used to convert pro files to CMake files.
