[Solved] How do I create subdirectories in Qt Creator?

[AutoBot]

Hi everybody, I've just started trying to port an OpenGL program I made in Visual Studio to Qt Creator so I can expand it with a UI, but I'm finding it difficult to get the layout I had originally:

As you can see there's a few subdirectories that hold a library (GL Tools) that I'm using for the application. One of the big problems is that I don't know how to implement subdirectories in the Qt Creator projects view (and whatever I did try didn't seem to work). How exactly do I accomplish this?

Help and advice are greatly appreciated!

Are you using a .pro file? i had the experience with cmake that if i opened the project from a cmake file i'd just get a flat list. If i use a .pro file however it works fine for me just by having the files in a separate folder and it maintains the directory structure.

Yeah, I'm trying to use a .pro file with it, and not having much luck so far. Here's what I have in it so far:

@HEADERS +=
WndProc.h
WindowManager.h
main.h
GraphicsManager.h
EntryPoint.h
Application.h
GL Tools/StopWatch.h
GL Tools/math3d.h
GL Tools/GLTriangleBatch.h
GL Tools/GLTools.h
GL Tools/GLShaderManager.h
GL Tools/GLMatrixStack.h
GL Tools/GLGeometryTransform.h
GL Tools/GLFrustum.h
GL Tools/GLFrame.h
GL Tools/GLBatchBase.h
GL Tools/GLBatch.h

SOURCES +=
WndProc.cpp
WindowManager.cpp
main.cpp
GraphicsManager.cpp
EntryPoint.cpp
Application.cpp
GL Tools/math3d.cpp
GL Tools/GLTriangleBatch.cpp
GL Tools/GLTools.cpp
GL Tools/GLShaderManager.cpp
GL Tools/GLBatch.cpp

LIBS += glu32.lib
opengl32.lib
glew32s.lib
@

Yet it only appears in the project explorer as this:

Am I doing something wrong?

Also on a side note, when I try to build the project I get the error ":-1: error: No rule to make target GL', needed by debug/GL.o'. Stop." (using MinGW). So if anybody knows, help would be appreciated on that as well.

MAJOR EDIT AND SOLUTION: I have the subdirectories working now, it's because the folder "GL Tools" had a space in it! I renamed it to "GLTools" and it works now, not to mention that error went away (which is how I started thinking of the solution, because it couldn't find "GL").

Thanks for the suggestions SimonL!

The .pro file doesn't like spaces in the directory name. If you remove them you should be good to go.

Edit: Wow. Completely didn't see the last half of your last post (or the [Solved] in the title). I guess I got too excited about figuring out the problem. :-) I need to start getting more sleep, I think.

Haha, it's fine, I do that quite a bit too at times. :D
