Hi!

Let me know if this works. I may soon start to use meson build as well.

@JoeCFD I don't have menu Meson in Preferences

[cristian-adam]

You need to enable the MesonProjectManager in About Plugins... menu entry.

[Mihaill]

@cristian-adam I can't install this plugin. How possible install this plugin?

[cristian-adam]

Just download an official Qt Creator release from https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qtcreator/13.0/. Otherwise you have to talk to the people that packaged the Qt Creator version that you are using.

There is no QtCreator 15 :)
What does "it doesn't work" mean? Nothing happens? You get an error?!
What system are you using?

I don't understand this question.
What file?
Did you check in "About Plugins..." whether Meson Project Manager is there?

Don't click "Install Plugin".
If you have it already, you just need to activate it.
Find it in your list and see the checkBox next to "Meson.... Manager...Plugin". When you have a tick mark there, it's already loaded, otherwise check it by clicking the box.
QtCreator then says it need to restart. After that the Meson Plugin is loaded into QtCretaor.

@Mihaill
On your QtCreator 13.0
step1: click About
step2: click About Plugins
step3: check MesonProjectManager and select this row(number 7)
step4: press Install Plugin
step5: in the Install plugin dialog click browse button to load libGenericProjectManager.so
this file is located at path/QtCreator/lib/qtcreator/plugins/libGenericProjectManager.so

Then restart your qt creator and it will be added.

Yes that's what I said. If it appears in the list with the checkbox, you can activate the plugin and it should work.
"Install" is to install other plugins from file on your computer.
