Having the same build system eases the work for everybody.<br /><br />Copperspice forked Qt (4) and now has (aloso) a CMake build option. Have a look at how it was done there ;)<br /><br />What would happen when C++ will have modules, every build system will have to support them. Why not just get that for free?Cristianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16735332457747999220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523589.post-27117736292401676872018-06-21T09:48:35.980+02:002018-06-21T09:48:35.980+02:00"The build system for Qt 6 is still not decid..."The build system for Qt 6 is still not decided, but there's people working on a qbs build and noone working on any other alternative" <br /><br />False. a port for CMake was reviewed and discarded for some reason nobody outside of the qt project seems to understand why.<br /><br />And Qt6 would need to ship the CMake files as well for the buildsystem integration so I really don't understand why they really wanna do double work.Tomazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06554373996997118191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523589.post-57434526040238566362018-06-21T09:02:21.458+02:002018-06-21T09:02:21.458+02:00Not to mention that CMake could... be extended to ...Not to mention that CMake could... be extended to work with the platforms they want to target?<br /><br />It's not like no ones ever written a build system before...

CMake is probably the easiest way to set up cross-compilation for whatever system you have as long as the rootfs and build tools (compiler, linker etc.) are present for that target system. I guess you have actually never worked with CMake to begin with.rbaleksandarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16494563119441624127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523589.post-38811853700949487822018-06-21T06:18:23.268+02:002018-06-21T06:18:23.268+02:00Qt can't use CMAke because CMake don't sup...Qt can't use CMAke because CMake don't support all platforms Qt supports.
