Building a project

Simple build

Let’s assume you only want to compile your project once.

Doing so is easy:

$ qibuild make foo

Or, to build in release, use:

$ qibuild make --release foo

Using an IDE

qiBuild is based on CMake, which in turns knows how to generate project files for many of IDEs : Xcode, Eclipse, Visual Studio. Here we are only dealing with the details for:

  • QtCreator on Mac and Linux
  • Visual Studio on Windows.

See:

qiBuild is known to work fine with these IDEs, there may be some work to do to be able to use Xcode or Eclipse. Patches and tutorials welcome !
