    Description

      When I open with qt-creator a cmake project already configured and compiled, and if I switch from one compilation type to another (like from Debug to Release) I obtain the following error message : "Invalid codemodel file generated by CMake" and the project cannot be compiled anymore.

      Steps to reproduce :
      1. run cmake from the command line in a directory buildDebug, and specifying Debug build type
      2. run cmake from the command line in a directory buildRelease, and specifying Release build type
      3. run make from the command line in buildDebug
      4. run make from the command line in buildRelease
      5. open the CMakeLists.txt with qt-creator
      6. select the Desktop kit
      7. specify directories buildRelease and buildDebug for Release and Debug build type
      8. switch from Debug to Release 

      Note that before step 8, there is no issue. cmake can be run again from qt-creator. The build in Debug does not re-compile everything since sources have not change. The executable can be run correctly from qt-creator. 

      This is what qt-creator printed to the terminal:
      Cannot update Qt version information: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake cannot be run.

      Cannot update Qt version information: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake cannot be run.

      One solution is to clear the cmake configuration from qt-creator, run cmake from qt-creator, then build. With these steps, the error message is gone and the project is correctly configured. But it re-build every sources even if they were already compiled before...
