Question

I’m trying to create CMakeLists.txt file for KDE4/Qt4 project. In this project currently there is included one *.pri file which creates independent library. I would like to include that library into my CMakeLists.txt. I don’t have any idea how to do this…
Currently my *.pro file looks like below:

include(utils/qtpropertybrowser/src/qtpropertybrowser.pri)

QT       += core gui console xml

TARGET = photoframeseditor
TEMPLATE = app

SOURCES += main.cpp\
    plugin/photoframeseditor.cpp \
    ....

HEADERS  += plugin/photoframeseditor.h \
    widgets/photo_context_menu.h \
    ....

LIBS += \
    -L/usr \
    -lkdeui \
    -lkio \
    -lkipi \
    -lkdecore

INCLUDEPATH += \
    plugin \
    ....

OTHER_FILES += \
    resources/photoframeseditorui.rc \
    resources/photoframeseditor.kcfg \
    CMakeLists.txt \
    resources/PFEConfigSkeleton.kcfgc

RESOURCES += \
    resources/icons.qrc

And CMakeLists.txt

  PROJECT( photoframeseditor )

  FIND_PACKAGE( KDE4 REQUIRED )

  INCLUDE(KDE4Defaults)

  SET( INCLUDE_DIRS
      ./
      ./plugin
      .....
  )

  INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${QT_INCLUDE} ${KDE4_INCLUDES} ${INCLUDE_DIRS})

  # sources
  SET( SAMPLE_SRCS
      ./main.cpp
     .....
  )

  # moc headers
  SET( SAMPLE_MOC_HDRS
      ./plugin/photoframeseditor.h
     .....
  )

  SET( SAMPLE_RCS
       ./resources/icons.qrc
  )

  ADD_DEFINITIONS( -Wall )

  SET( QT_USE_QTXML TRUE )
  SET( QT_USE_QTCONSOLE TRUE )

  FIND_PACKAGE( Qt4 REQUIRED )

  INCLUDE( ${QT_USE_FILE} )

  QT4_ADD_RESOURCES( SAMPLE_RC_SRCS ${SAMPLE_RCS} )

  QT4_WRAP_CPP( SAMPLE_MOC_SRCS ${SAMPLE_MOC_HDRS} )

  KDE4_ADD_EXECUTABLE( photoframeseditor ${SAMPLE_SRCS} ${SAMPLE_MOC_SRCS} ${SAMPLE_RC_SRCS} )

  TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES( photoframeseditor ${QT_LIBRARIES} ${KDE4_KDEUI_LIBS} ${KDE4_KPARTS_LIBS} ./utils/qtpropertybrowser/src/qtpropertybrowser.pri)

  KDE4_ADD_KCFG_FILES(photoframeseditor_SRCS ./resources/PFEConfigSkeleton.kcfgc)
  INSTALL( FILES ./resources/PFEConfigSkeleton.kcfgc DESTINATION ${KCFG_INSTALL_DIR} )

  INSTALL( TARGETS photoframeseditor  ${INSTALL_TARGETS_DEFAULT_ARGS} )

And finally there is *.pri file, I would like to include into my CMakeLists.txt

include(../common.pri)
INCLUDEPATH += $$PWD
DEPENDPATH += $$PWD

qtpropertybrowser-uselib:!qtpropertybrowser-buildlib {
    LIBS += -L$$QTPROPERTYBROWSER_LIBDIR -l$$QTPROPERTYBROWSER_LIBNAME
} else {
    SOURCES += $$PWD/qtpropertybrowser.cpp \
            $$PWD/qtpropertymanager.cpp \
            $$PWD/qteditorfactory.cpp \
            $$PWD/qtvariantproperty.cpp \
            $$PWD/qttreepropertybrowser.cpp \
            $$PWD/qtbuttonpropertybrowser.cpp \
            $$PWD/qtgroupboxpropertybrowser.cpp \
            $$PWD/qtpropertybrowserutils.cpp
    HEADERS += $$PWD/qtpropertybrowser.h \
            $$PWD/qtpropertymanager.h \
            $$PWD/qteditorfactory.h \
            $$PWD/qtvariantproperty.h \
            $$PWD/qttreepropertybrowser.h \
            $$PWD/qtbuttonpropertybrowser.h \
            $$PWD/qtgroupboxpropertybrowser.h \
            $$PWD/qtpropertybrowserutils_p.h
    RESOURCES += $$PWD/qtpropertybrowser.qrc
}

win32 {
    contains(TEMPLATE, lib):contains(CONFIG, shared):DEFINES += QT_QTPROPERTYBROWSER_EXPORT
    else:qtpropertybrowser-uselib:DEFINES += QT_QTPROPERTYBROWSER_IMPORT
}

Thanks for any help in advance!

Ok I’ve got correct CMakeLists.txt for this *.pri file:
