Hi,

I am also using "Qt Creator 4.14.0", and I am using the up-to-date git master. I
removed all the .pro.user and .pro files generated by the invocation of
"bin/gbuild-to-ide --ide qtcreator", using this tiny script:

     for f in `find -name "*.pro.user"`
     do
         pro=${f/\.user/}
         echo $f
         rm $pro
         rm $f
     done

then regenerated .pro files using:

     make qtcreator-ide-integration

and then loaded lo.pro in Qt Creator.

Sounds reasonable. I think both, *.pro.user and and *.pro files are overwritten when running 'make qtcreator-ide-integration' anyway, so it shouldn't even be needed to delete them explicitly.

I just double-checked it works for me with newly generated files and a fresh Qt Creator profile taking these steps:

1. make sure Qt Creator is not running

2. Generate the IDE integration files:

    make qtcreator-ide-integration

3. For reference, create archive with the autogenerated files:

tar cavf qtc_autogenerated.tar.gz $(find . -regex '\(.*\.pro\)\|\(.*\.pro.user\)')

4. start Qt Creator with a fresh, temporary profile:

    qtcreator -settingspath $(mktemp -d)

5. load project using lo.pro

6. check build and run settings

7. close Qt Creator

8. For reference, create archive with the files as they look once opened and written back by Qt Creator:

tar cavf qtc_after_running_once.tar.gz $(find . -regex '\(.*\.pro\)\|\(.*\.pro.user\)')

I've uploaded the archives from steps 3 and 8 here for reference:
https://nextcloud.documentfoundation.org/s/cXTdxJPw83cfTd3

The screencast at https://nextcloud.documentfoundation.org/s/AybdcfMsSYNTSnn shows what build and run settings look like for me in steps 5-6 and that running/debugging LO right away basically "just works". (In addition to the above, I'd enable system GDB pretty printers and disable that the project is built before running every time, but that's unrelated here.)

Can you double-check with these steps? If you send me your generated files from steps 3 and 8, I can take a quick look whether I can see anything obvious when comparing to my own ones.

In this stage, I had to:

1. Disable shadow build, otherwise I was getting several errors when I wanted to
build the project.
2. Remove qmake build step, otherwise I was also getting several errors when I
wanted to build the project.

I remember to have seen that previously, i.e. without the 3 patches mentioned in my previous email. Do you have a "01-Global-Build" build configuration for the project (as shown in the screencast) at all?

3. Change "SUBDIRS = . \" to "SUBDIRS = ../core \", otherwise I wasn't able to
see core.pro get loaded and I was getting this error message:
     /path/to/libreoffice/core/lo.pro: Could not find .pro file for subdirectory
         "." in "/path/to/libreoffice/core/.".

Is that in lo.pro? Mine looks different and just lists all the subdirs by name:

SUBDIRS = UnoControls \
accessibility \
animations \
avmedia \
basctl \
basegfx \
[...]

Are you running ./autogen.sh and the build from right within the git checkout or from a separate directory (I'm doing the former and haven't checked the latter)?

4. Manually add the executable "instdir/program/soffice.bin", otherwise I was
getting this error message:
     You need to set an executable in the custom run configuration.

Same as written for 1. and 2. above: I had the same behaviour without the 3 patches from Sunday, but now that's prefilled as shown in the screencast.


After doing all these steps, things were fine. So, I think all these steps are
currently necessary, unless the "bin/gbuild-to-ide" script is further tuned.

Would of course be nice if that "just worked", and I can try to take a look once it's clear why that doesn't work for your case yet.
