Description
Consider this test scenario:
1. Unpack the attached project in the filesystem.
2. Open the project in QtCreator.
3. Press Configure Project in the initial screen.
Configuring fails with the following output:
Running /usr/bin/cmake -S /home/lastique/src/tmp/cmake_test_project -B /home/lastique/src/tmp/cmake_test_project/build-cmake_test_project-Desktop-Debug '-DCMAKE_GENERATOR:STRING=CodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles' -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug -DCMAKE_PROJECT_INCLUDE_BEFORE:FILEPATH=/home/lastique/qtcreator-7.0.0-beta1/share/qtcreator/package-manager/auto-setup.cmake -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE:STRING=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:STRING=/usr/bin/g++ in /home/lastique/src/tmp/cmake_test_project/build-cmake_test_project-Desktop-Debug. CMake Error: Error: generator : Unix Makefiles Does not match the generator used previously: CodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles Either remove the CMakeCache.txt file and CMakeFiles directory or choose a different binary directory. CMake process exited with exit code 1. Elapsed time: 00:00.
Note that:
- There is no CMakeCache.txt
- In the Options -> Kits tab, the default kit is Manual -> Desktop, which has "CMake generator: CodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles" set. Changing "Extra generator" to "<none>" (which results in "CMake generator: Unix Makefiles") has no effect - configuring still fails with the same output.
- The workaround is to remove CMAKE_GENERATOR variable completely in the project settings.
I have not seen such problem with QtCreator 6.0.2.
