Developing openage in Integrated Development Environments (IDEs)

Qt Creator IDE

Qt Creator can be used to launch build, edit, run and debug C++ and QML code.

Install Qt Creator from the repository of your distribution or with an installer from the Qt web-site.

To launch QtCreator in English on Linux:

$ LANGUAGE=C qtcreator

Opening and configuring the project

Open the root CMakeLists.txt with the QtCreator, select the Qt installation that you want to target and click Configure Project.

Watch the General Messages log window for CMake errors.

Enabling parallel build

Go to Projects -> openage -> Build & Run -> Build -> Build Steps -> Build -> Details, and add -j4 to the Tool arguments.

Run & Debug

To set the correct executable, first go to Projects -> openage -> Build & Run -> Run page. In the Run configuration combo-box select Custom Executable and set Executable to <path-to-openage-src>/run. Set Working directory to <path-to-openage-src>. The <path-to-openage-src> is the directory where the sources of the openage are (the directory of the root CMakeLists.txt file).

The <path-to-openage-src>/run binary has no executable bit set when first built, set it manually with chmod.
