CMake find_package problem

Perdrix

I'm trying a build a third party project which uses CMake on Windows using a Visual Studio command prompt.

But when I did so I got this:

D:\Github\SmtpClient-for-Qt>cmake -B ./build -G Ninja -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH:STRING="C:\Qt\6.8.2\msvc2022_64"
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:16 (find_package):
  Could not find a configuration file for package "Qt" that is compatible
  with requested version "".

  The following configuration files were considered but not accepted:

    C:/Qt/6.8.2/msvc2022_64/lib/cmake/Qt6/Qt6Config.cmake, version: 6.8.2 (64bit)

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

lines 16 and 17 of the CMakeLists file read:

find_package(Qt NAMES Qt6 COMPONENTS Core Network REQUIRED)
find_package(Qt${QT_VERSION_MAJOR} COMPONENTS Core Network REQUIRED)

What is wrong please?

You are using the wrong Visual Studio command prompt. Very likely the x86 version, and not the x86_64 one.

This part:

The following configuration files were considered but not accepted:

    C:/Qt/6.8.2/msvc2022_64/lib/cmake/Qt6/Qt6Config.cmake, version: 6.8.2 (64bit)

gave it away.

Oh my goodness, that was so not obvious (to me) ... Thank you!
