I was trying to modify the source code of this open source project https://github.com/haiwen/seafile-client As I can see it contains .ui, .qrc etc files which is used in Qt, but there is no .pro files present in his repository. So how to get the .pro file for this repository code. Any idea?

.profile seafile-server qt5 qt

You can use qmake to generate the .pro file for this repository. Just do the following steps:

  1. Clone the repo.
  2. cd into the repo
  3. Run the following command
qmake -project -r *

It will repeatedly look into the directory and it's sub-directory files and will generate required .pro file for you. You can learn more about this at below given link: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmake-running.html#project-mode-options

That was the Cmake project , you should install CMake in your system and build it like this :

cmake .
make
make install

OR use CMakeLists.txt instead of .pro .
