Revision history [back]

Here a sample CMakeLists.txt which allowed us to create rviz panels, I'm not quite sure what you need to adapt, however, we had no manual copying to do. Seems like you are missing the MOC_FILES and the UIC_FILES at the add_library() call...

Note that this is Qt4 only, but I guess the Qt5 way should be pretty similar...

find_package(Qt4 COMPONENTS QtCore QtGui REQUIRED)
include(${QT_USE_FILE})

# required if you want to add some images, etc. Could be made differently/nicer, probably.
