    SUBDIRS is not an option if you're using CMake (don't know if that's the case for Gourmand though).

      Do you mean: if I'll create projects.pro with content like this:

      @TEMPLATE=subdirs

      SUBDIRS += coredir
      libdir \
      plug1dir
      plug2dir@

      then I'll have only change config for this only project and run build for it?

      But what will happen if I have a number of open projects and this projects.pro then just click to Build button? Which one project will be build first - projects.pro or one opened with first name in list? What will happen if I click REBUILD ALL? Won't it will be rebuild twice?

      bq. SUBDIRS is not an option if you’re using CMake

      I work with jom option turned on (don't sure if this works) and mingw32-make by default.

        You can add dependencies: http://www.qtcentre.org/wiki/index.php?title=Undocumented_qmake#SUBDIRS_projects

          This is certainly not the field of my expertize. However, I thought that creator will always use qmake to generate the different makefiles. Lateron the "makes" will use those makefiles.
          SUBDIRS is part of qmake, isn't it?

            Ok, let's think I added dependencies... But what will happen after click to Rebuild All if all projects including superproject are open?

              When you open the superproject, all your subprojects are opened automatically. If you have the subprojects open as well, all projects will start building. That means your projects get built twice. Best is to only open the super project if you want everything available.

                  you can start up the plugin as a separate project, then add the project to your subdirs project and go from there. Not much more complicated than what you have to do now.

                    Gourmand, I think a small test made by yourself will show you is it a good option for you.

                      Ok, I just made superproject file like this:

                      @TEMPLATE += subdirs
                      CONFIG += ordered

                      SUBDIRS += sciQtldyn
                      CI_STD
                      deciQt/deciQtl
                      qtcolorpicker-2.6_1-opensource/buildlib
                      CI_FED
                      SCPS-K
                      ci_ui
                      EmptyPlugin
                      EmptyPlugin2
                      textedit
                      UIPlugin

                      sciQtldyn.file = sciQtldyn.pro
                      CI_STD.file = CI_std15_plugin.pro
                      deciQt/deciQtl.file = deciQtldyn.pro
                      qtcolorpicker-2.6_1-opensource/buildlib.file = buildlib.pro
                      CI_FED.file = CI_FED15_plugin.pro
                      SCPS-K.file = SCPS-K.pro
                      ci_ui.file = ci_ui.pro
                      EmptyPlugin.file = EmptyPlugin.pro
                      EmptyPlugin2.file = EmptyPlugin2.pro
                      textedit.file = textedit.pro
                      UIPligin.file = uiplugin.pro@

                      this doesn't work. This superproject file is placed into directory on top of all subproject directories. When I open superproject.pro in Qt Creator then I see only this project. I expected all subprojects will be opened inside it. I need mandatory access to each subproject individually. And even project build doesn't work. What is wrong here?

                        At first try to update your QtCreator. Afair you are using 2.0.1 which is too old

                          Hah... here is the question - how to install separate QtCreator package in Windows over old QtCreator? And do not change Qt for while. I do not want upgrade all Qt now - I have dynamically and statically versions. This upgrade will take some time but I cannot spend it now. I downloaded latest QtCreator but installer does not see already installed one. It does not suggest upgrade, just install new. But I want upgrade. How better do that?

                            Ok, I installed 2.2.1 and opened superproject. Result is the same.

                            On the "run qmake" it generates Makefile without any mention of subprojects.

                            BTW: Tried add existing project to superproject - it adds as "other file". But logically it must add project to .pro as subproject.

                              Just added another one suggestion - ability add existing subproject into superproject created manually or by SUBDIRS wizard. Now this wizard is almost useless. It only allows create empty subprojects but not add existing. For all who agree wit this - please vote for it:

                              https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTCREATORBUG-5837

                              I tried create subdirs file manually but without success. And my question is still open...

                                Can you post your .pro files of your superproject?

                                All I remember is that it was very easy to do so.

                                    removed the section with the different files.

                                    Probably you have included the last section because of some renaming purposes I do not understand. So you may want to start with changing the TEMPLATE statement only.

                                        This section is needed cause project names are not the same as folders names. And they cannot be changed now. This section was added as recommended here:

                                        http://www.qtcentre.org/wiki/index.php?title=Undocumented_qmake#SUBDIRS_projects

                                        bq. I’m not sure how well the subdirs template handles directories in the SUBDIRS variable which are not immediately below the current directory.

                                        Probably this could produce problem. But this is needed by project structure and cannot be changed quickly. If SUBDIRS cannot include nested dirs - then SUBDIRS is not appropriate solution for me. Just another reason to write suggestion...
