QtCreator not handling nested projects anymore?

[akos.maroy]

Hi,

I've used QtCreator in the past as well, and I downloaded the latest version, 2.2.0 for Windows. I opened my .pro project file, which is a nested project (has a SUBDIRS statement). previously, when opening such a .pro file, QtCreator would display all the nexted projects, and then all the source files in the respective nested projects would be available.

But now, only the .pro file is opened, but none of the nested files. Calling build will build everything, but when there are compilation warnings or errors - QtCreator cannot find the source files (as the relative path reported by gcc is not based on the outmost directory of the project).

How can one get the old functionality back, which was quite fine?

thanks, but that thread is about SUBDIRS not working. I have qmake build my project fine, the only thing is that QtCreator won't display the SUBDIR projects & files included in them...

I know this probably won't help you much, but I'm using a subdirs project, and haven't had any problems with it in Qt Creator 2.2. The one thing I've had to do is disable shadow builds, but I think that's just because of how my projects are organised, it should work if you have them in a tree with the subdirs project at the top.

hm, interesting, wonder why it doesn't work with my project :(
(yes, I also disabled shadow builds)

Could you post you pro file?
So we can look into it.

Try putting the TEMPLATE = subdirs outside the condition

indeed - now it works. thanks!

(interestingly, the same file used to work fine in older versions of QtCreator)

Did you do this on the same os. maybe it's 64 bit now or other differences?
There must be a logical explanation.

same os (Windows 7 64 bit), different QtCreator.

well, anyway, the good thing is that it works :)
