To export a project to some other build system, such as Microsoft Visual
|
||||
Studio, select \uicontrol Build > \uicontrol {Run Generator}, and select
|
||||
a generator in the list. \QC generates the build files, such as .vcxproj,
|
||||
in the project's build directory. The tool that you use to build the project
|
||||
(qmake or CMake) provides the generators. Their availability depends on the
|
||||
version of the build tool, host platform, and properties of the host system.

Also, a JSON compilation database generator is available if the
