Fortunately this is not very complicated. The previous instructions should help you building a tiny application, but if you need some features of Qt such as Graphical Interface design, auto MOC, resources files, … You’ll need extra configuration. #include #include int main( int argc, char ** argv) Let’s create a basic Hello World application and see how it runs Now that CMake is fully configured we can code a tiny application. Target_link_libraries(QtTest Qt5::Core Qt5::Widgets) We are not done yet! We still need to tell CMake to link the libraries to the executable and this is done in one instruction: cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.14) The REQUIRED argument tells CMake to fails if the wanted package are not found. # Tell cmake to find the modules Qt5Core and Qt5widgetsįind_package(Qt5 COMPONENTS Core Widgets REQUIRED) This will allow us to build a minimal GUI application. Now we are going to tell CMake to find the Core and Widgets modules of Qt. This is done by setting the Qt5_DIR variable: cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.14)

The first thing to do is to edit the CMakeLists.txt file to tell CMake where to find the Qt install directory. You can now click on the CMakeLists.txt file to view CMake configuration Create the project and configure CMake ⌗įor this example we are going to create a new project from scratch Please note that the following instructions assume that you have Qt & Clion installed and configured. Fortunately It can be done easily using CMake. I have then decided to make Qt works with Clion. Since I work heavily with Jetbrains products I use Clion, and I am really fast and efficient with it. Qt Creator is really powerful, it integrates GUI designer for the application, has a good debugger integration, … But let’s be honest: it’s far from being the best code editor.

Qt does not provide only GUI API but has also support for networking, audio, serial port, thread, database, etc… It’s one of the biggest framework ever written for C++.ĭespite of the framework, Qt also provide a code editor named Qt Creator. Qt is a free and open source widget toolkit for creating GUI and cross platform applications that run on many platforms such as Linux, Windows, MacOs, Android, etc… with native capabilities and performances. If you have ever worked with C++ for GUI development, chance are that you have heard of Qt.
