From a3b9e3459f02d23c66b2a7fa5e2ea6fac03bbe82 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexandru Croitor Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2020 15:00:13 +0100 Subject: CMake: Warn when building Qt with a generator other than Ninja For now, we only support building Qt with the Ninja generator (and Ninja Multi-Config). Issue a warning when a different generator is used. Allow opting out of the warning by passing -DQT_SILENCE_CMAKE_GENERATOR_WARNING=ON.
