[CMake] CMake/Ninja support in Qt Creator

2012-09-17 Thread Peter Kümmel


Qt Creator 2.6 is beta now.

On github I've uploaded a patched version with Ninja support for CMake based 
projects:

https://github.com/syntheticpp/qt-creator/downloads

When CDB is installed


http://doc-snapshot.qt-project.org/qtcreator-2.5/creator-debugger-engines.html#supported-cdb-versions

debugging works even with the 32bit/64bit compilers of Visual Studio Express 
2012.


Currently I'm trying to bring the patches upstream, but for 2.6 it seems too 
late.

Awesome!

I was really looking forward to this:
https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTCREATORBUG-7720

Thank you!

Peter,

i had 2.8.9-pre3 before, i upgraded to 2.8.9. But only after deleting
the CMakeLists user file from qtcreator, deleting the build directory
and restarting qtcreator I was able to get the option to build with Ninja.

Anyway, it seems to work fine now, and the building is much faster.

Hi Wouter,

you need the latest cmake version, 2.8.9.

Under Tools/Options/Build&Run/CMake
the ninja binary could be set, or have it PATH.

Because when I run cmake from the gui it now still generates nmakefiles.

2012-09-19 Thread Peter Kümmel

Yes, starting from scratch helps in most cases. But with cmake
we are used to simply clean the build dir, which doesn't help here.

It is a problem that creator's .user file is stored beside
the CMakeLists.txt: you can't check it in because of absolute paths,
a clean of the repository removes it, a buggy setup
is remember by creator, and it violates the principle
"don't touch the the source". I told them, but they don't care.

Peter,

I guess removing just the build directory also seems to work.

I agree with your objections of the location the user file, the source
directory should stay clean. An inattentive moment and you have the file
in your version control.

Anyway, it seems to build now using an older version of ninja. However
when I use the 1.0.0 version of ninja, I get the following error:

ninja: FATAL: unknown placeholder '%o' in $NINJA_STATUS

With the ninja downloaded from here:
https://github.com/martine/ninja/downloads

This is needed for printing the compile rate: have a look at
"Compile Output", there you can see the compiled files per second rate.

With the ninja downloaded from here:
https://github.com/martine/ninja/downloads

This is not a 1.0.0 build, it needs -V for printing the version, which is pre
1.0.
And even 1.0.0 has an ugly bug. Please select the ninja in the bin dir.
I've also uploaded a ninja binary on github.
