gc22-project-13

How to checkout

Because the project contains submodules, you should clone it with --recursive flag, like so:

git clone --recursive git@github.com:IS-CG/cg22-project-13.git

How to configure and compile

Firstly, make sure that Qt6 binaries are installed somewhere in the system.

How to install qt6

There are 2 general strategies

1. Installer from official qt's website.
   • installs all needed dependencies
   • installs some other stuff (5+ Gb)
2. Local qt source building based on official guide
   • deals with required modules only - faster and takes less disk space
     On init-stage add --module-subset=qtbase, so

     perl init-repository --module-subset=qtbase

     On configure stage it is not needed to make examples, add -nomake examples to safe your time.
     We don't recommend to apply -nomake tests since there are some which help to detect unsatisfied dependencies (e.g., OpenGL implementation).
   • you have to load required dependencies (listed in the guide) before building.

Secondly, we have to point CMake to those Qt6 binaries. The <qt6 bin path> should look similarly to <Qt install dir>/6.3.2/gcc_64/.

Linux + VSCode with CMake extension

Set cmake extension setting: "cmake.installPrefix": "<qt6 bin path>".

Linux + CLion

File -> Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> CMake: set CMake options setting to -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<qt6 bin path>.

After pointing cmake to qt6 binaries, the project should configure successfully. After configuring, the only step left is to compile everything normally.
