Hello, Let me start by saying that I am not, by any means, a long time user of Qbs and maybe there is something painfully obvious that I missed which can be used to resolve my situation.
Some time ago I started researching ways in which Qbs could help me integrate awesome tools from clang land into my dev workflow. Many of them [clang-tidy, KDAB’s clazy, even cppcheck] can leverage compile commands json file to do all sorts of static analysis. To quote the documentation: “To generate a project for another build system, such as Microsoft Visual Studio, use the qbs-generate sub-command and specify a generator using the -g option. # For Visual Studio qbs generate -g visualstudio2015” Obviously, when I use QtCreator to manage my Qbs projects, inputting this command into powershell/cmd leads to errors related to not yet configured Qbs profile and Qt framework instance. I could probably add them by hand and be done with it BUT: 1. I often change Qt versions 2. I often change compilers and their versions 3. I often change my workstations 4. I am an extremely lazy person I already tried adding custom build step in QtCreator but this is suboptimal. In ideal world I would right click on a Qbs project in QtCreator treeview and select “Generate project files for- > clangdb, vsstudioXXXX, turboC++” or maybe add some custom module in *.qbs file to generate it during build time. Is there any sane way to deal with this? Jakub Narolewski
