Custom QWidget (Qwt) class not found when promoted
-
I have a QWidget element on my ui which I would like to use for as a plotter.
I am trying to promote it to a custom class (MyPlot) of mine which inherits QwtPlot.The Qwt package is found and CMake runs fine. But when I try to build it, the ui_mainwindow.h file is not finding my custom class.
It throws the error :
ui_mainwindow.h:19:10: 'src/myplot.hpp' file not foundMy CMakeLists.txt file looks like this:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5) project(Front VERSION 0.1 LANGUAGES CXX) set(CMAKE_AUTOUIC ON) set(CMAKE_AUTOMOC ON) set(CMAKE_AUTORCC ON) set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH} "cmake") set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17) set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON) # extend cmake module path find additional .cmake module (here in Qwt) set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/cmake") find_package(QT NAMES Qt6 Qt5 REQUIRED COMPONENTS Widgets) find_package(Qt${QT_VERSION_MAJOR} REQUIRED COMPONENTS Widgets) # prepare QWT library set (QWT_LIBRARY "c:/cpp_libs/Qwt/Qwt-6.2.0/lib") set (QWT_INCLUDE_DIR "c:/cpp_libs/Qwt/Qwt-6.2.0/include") find_package(Qwt) if(Qwt_FOUND) message(STATUS "QWT Package Found") endif() set(PROJECT_SOURCES src/main.cpp src/mainwindow.cpp src/mainwindow.hpp src/mainwindow.ui src/myplot.hpp src/myplot.cpp ) if(${QT_VERSION_MAJOR} GREATER_EQUAL 6) qt_add_executable(Front MANUAL_FINALIZATION ${PROJECT_SOURCES} ) # Define target properties for Android with Qt 6 as: # set_property(TARGET Front APPEND PROPERTY QT_ANDROID_PACKAGE_SOURCE_DIR # ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/android) # For more information, see https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qt-add-executable.html#target-creation else() if(ANDROID) add_library(Front SHARED ${PROJECT_SOURCES} ) # Define properties for Android with Qt 5 after find_package() calls as: # set(ANDROID_PACKAGE_SOURCE_DIR "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/android") else() add_executable(Front ${PROJECT_SOURCES} ) endif() endif() # add QWT include and library directories to the project target_include_directories(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE ${QWT_INCLUDE_DIRS}) target_link_directories(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE ${QWT_LIBRARIES}) target_link_libraries(Front PUBLIC Qt${QT_VERSION_MAJOR}::Widgets qwt ) set_target_properties(Front PROPERTIES MACOSX_BUNDLE_GUI_IDENTIFIER my.example.com MACOSX_BUNDLE_BUNDLE_VERSION ${PROJECT_VERSION} MACOSX_BUNDLE_SHORT_VERSION_STRING ${PROJECT_VERSION_MAJOR}.${PROJECT_VERSION_MINOR} MACOSX_BUNDLE TRUE WIN32_EXECUTABLE TRUE ) install(TARGETS Front BUNDLE DESTINATION . LIBRARY DESTINATION ${CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR}) if(QT_VERSION_MAJOR EQUAL 6) qt_finalize_executable(Front) endif()My MyPlot class header looks like this:
#ifndef MYPLOT_HPP #define MYPLOT_HPP #include "qwt_plot.h" #include "qwt_scale_engine.h" #include "qwt_plot_curve.h" #include "qwt_plot_grid.h" #include "qwt_scale_draw.h" #include "qwt_symbol.h" #include "qwt_legend.h" #include "qwt_text.h" #include "qwt_point_data.h" #include "qwt_series_data.h" #include "qwt_plot_zoomer.h" #include "qwt_plot_magnifier.h" class MyPlot : public QwtPlot { Q_OBJECT public: explicit MyPlot(QWidget *parent = nullptr); }; #endif // MYPLOT_HPPThe implementation file is just an empty constructor.
This is the promoted classes for this widget.

What could I be missing? Thanks in advance.
