[CMake] QtCreator generator?
I saw a discussion about this back in March, but I didn't see any conclusions/resolutions. Is there a way to generate a QtCreator project using CMake? I tried the CMake support that was built into QtCreator itself, but it seems very awkward (you couldn't view/set variables, etc).

Ok. one more: how exactly did you run cmake ? From the command line or cmake-gui ? From the CMake-GUI. Which generator did you choose ? It should be the CodeBlocks - NMake Makefiles one. I had chosen CodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles. I just tried again with CodeBlocks - NMake Makefiles, and I get a message box that says: mspdb100.dll is missing. This then needs to be run from a terminal which has the VisualStudio environment variables set. Since I am running the GUI, I'd have to set the global Windows environment variables, right? Which variables do I need to set? Thanks for your help so far - we'll get to the bottom of this. I'll post a tutorial on the wiki once we get it working. I'd imagine this is a pretty common setup.
