This means your compilation command is missing the includes for Qt

.pro files are the project files for Qt's build system. You can choose to
build with qmake. Or you can choose to have it generate for other build
systems like XCode or Make. You do not need a pro file if you aren't going
to use qmake.

If you are having trouble with your cmake build system and you just want
the easiest possible approach, then maybe you should switch to just setting
up a pro file and using qmake?

http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.8/qmake-project-files.html

Maybe you should just simplify your process completely and use Qt Creator
to visually set up everything and compile?
