Creating a multi purpose node editor, if there is none available

[QtDev66]

So the last post was done in august, it's now November, this issue is still not fixed! Who is to blame here? Is the CMakeLists provided in the repo crap?

I just installed Qt 5.9.2 and VS2017, and with this library I am running into exactly the same problem as the OP. I have tried all the solutions here, but none of them are working, it still complains about

CMake Error at D:/Qt/5.9.2/msvc2017_64/lib/cmake/Qt5Core/Qt5CoreMacros.cmake:63 (file):

attempting to create a directory, and I cannot get this project to build.

I would like to add this project as a sub project to our main Qt project, but as it seems, the developer will not put pro files on the github repository and I am not going to make all of them manually.

I have the similar

I have the similar problem under linux

klaus@linux-8rwt:~/Workbench/QT5/3rdparty/nodeeditor-master> cmake CMakeLists.txt
CMake Error at /usr/lib64/cmake/Qt5Core/Qt5CoreMacros.cmake:63 (file):

CMakeLists.txt:49 (qt5_add_resources)

Has some one an idea that helps?

Have you been able to resolve the issue? I have the exact same (with different paths) on mac os with Q1 5.9.1.
server:build sr$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/Users/sr/Qt/5.9.1"

In case you want to go with your own implementation, I've spent several months preparing 50 programming tutorials with PyQt5 on writing your own Node Editor. I wanted them to be free for all, so they are posted on youtube. I hope you will like it. All can be found here: https://www.blenderfreak.com/tutorials/node-editor-tutorial-series/
