1. 軟件安裝
- Jetbrains CLion
- CLion: A Cross-Platform IDE for C and C++ by JetBrains
- https://www.jetbrains.com/clion/
- jetbrains-agent: Jetbrains 全家桶項目。
- https://gitee.com/pengzhile/jetbrains-agent
- Cmake（可選）
- 除非必要，一般不必另安裝，可以使用Clion中自帶的Cmake。如一定要選用個人安裝的，請注意在工具鏈中的Cmake路徑設置，否則可以直接選bundled即可。
- Qt5 for MinGW64 use msys2
- msys2：下載安裝msys2，在MinGW-64下載頁面（url: http://mingw-w64.org/doku.php/download )，進入msys2頁面進行下載，也可直接從http://www.msys2.org進入下載（ 32位：msys2-i686-20180531.exe；64位：msys2-x86_64-20180531.exe），建議安裝在磁盤空間大的磁盤目錄下，因為安裝Qt及依賴軟件需要占用很多存儲空間，本例中安裝在C:\msys64目錄下，並將此目錄和bin目錄加入系統路徑中。
- Pacman：msys2 移植了Arch Linux 上的軟件包管理系統 Pacman，有了包管理系統，升級、安裝新的軟件就很簡單了（pacman常用命令參數見文末說明）。在此管理系統中，軟件包的命名中前綴為“mingw-w64-”，然后是針對命名32位或64位系統使用， "-x86_64-" for 64-bit, "-i686-" for 32-bit。下載的軟件包也會據此安裝部署到不同的目錄中，如32位的軟件會部署到C:\msys64\mingw32中，64位的會部署到C:\msys64\mingw64中。軟件下載包是放在C:\msys64\var\cache\pacman\pkg中。
- Qt5：msys2提供編譯好的MinGW-w64套件，一般提供了32位和64位兩個版本。Qt也分別有編譯好的32位和64位版本，以及靜態鏈接和動態鏈接共4個版本，以及QtCreator。（mingw-w64-i686-qt5，mingw-w64-i686-qt5-static，mingw-w64-i686-qt-creator；mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5，mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5-stati， mingw-w64-x86_64-qt-creator）。
- 啟動msys2的命令行窗口，通過pacman下載安裝MinGW版本的Qt5。在此已32位的為例。
- pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-qt5 mingw-w64-i686-qt5-static
- 下載安裝make和gdb工具；
- pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-make mingw-w64-i686-gdb
- 安裝完成后，在系統路徑中添加bin路徑；
- C:\msys64;C:\msys64\mingw32\bin
- 至此，即可正常使用Qt5了。可以用Qt5自帶的示例測試是否安裝正常，用CLion編譯過程附后。
- 第三方庫安裝（以QWT為例）
- QWT：全稱是Qt Widgets for Technical Applications，是一個基於LGPL版權協議的開源項目， 可生成各種統計圖。它為具有技術專業背景的程序提供GUI組件和一組實用類，其目標是以基於2D方式的窗體部件來顯示數據， 數據源以數值，數組或一組浮點數等方式提供， 輸出方式可以是Curves（曲線），Slider（滾動條），Dials（圓盤），Compasses（儀表盤）等等。該工具庫基於Qt開發，所以也繼承了Qt的跨平台特性。在msys2中針對MinGW-w64提供了兩個版本（mingw-w64-i686-qwt-qt5 mingw-w64-x86_64-qwt-qt5）。本文以32位為例，進行下載安裝。因為第三方庫的路徑都是基於msys2的，所以無需后續系統路徑的配置。
- pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-qwt-qt5
- 至此，如果需要用Clion作為IDE，用MinGW作為編譯器，用CMake作為項目構建工具，開發基於Qt5、qwt的C++圖形GUI項目，就已經基本具備條件了。
- 其他可選的編譯器或Qt版本
- 基於MinGW的Qt5官方安裝包模式：此模式下，需用其自帶的MinGW，如使用qwt，需對qwt源碼進行此版本下的編譯生成，方可使用。
- 下載地址: http://download.qt.io/archive/qt/5.7/5.7.1/qt-opensource-windows-x86-mingw530-5.7.1.exe
- 安裝需要注意，選擇Tools里面的MinGW5.3.0，安裝的Qt for MinGW的Tools中含有gcc/g++，是用來編譯此版本Qt項目的。在CLion中，如圖設置Toolchains:
- 基於MinGW的Qt5官方安裝包模式：此模式下，需用其自帶的MinGW，如使用qwt，需對qwt源碼進行此版本下的編譯生成，方可使用。
-
- LLVM Clang for MinGW64 （可選）
- Step 1: Install the msys2.
- Step 2: Launch the msys terminal and install llvm/clang.
- pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-llvm mingw-w64-i686-clang mingw-w64-i686-make mingw-w64-i686-gdb
- Step 3: Let CMake detect clang from the environment variables.
- CLion Setting Toolchains
- LLVM Clang for MinGW64 （可選）

然而，這種方法編譯Qt項目，生成的項目執行文件比用QtTool的MinGW編譯的大！
2. CLion開發Qt5環境配置
- CLion Setting Toolchains
- CLion Setting CMake（除選擇Build Type和Toolchain外，其他都是默認項）
- 一般在做了工具鏈修改或項目CMakeLists.txt文件的修改，需要重新構建項目，再進行項目編譯調試。通過在CLion中，選擇Tools -> CMake -> Reset Cache and Reload Project
3. 開發示例
- Qt5 for msys2 MinGW32
- CMakeLists.txt for qt5 project，在CLion中，可用MinGW32、MinGW for Qt Tool、Clang編譯工具鏈均可。

- 示例用QWT自帶的示例Radio（可從https://sourceforge.net/projects/qwt/files/qwt/下載的壓縮包中獲得），在項目中去掉.pro文件，然后添加相應針對qwt的CMakeLists.txt文件，在CLion中，用基於msys2的工具鏈進行編譯調試，順利成功！
注意事項
- 在測試過程中發現，一定要注意非自編譯的庫，如Qt、Qwt等，都是從官方或msys中獲得，必須要保證其已編譯的庫所使用的工具環境一致性，不同工具環境編譯的庫是不能互相調用的。如需要使用msys中的qwt庫，就一定要用其對應的Qt庫（同樣從msys中獲得的），因為都是用msys中的MinGW生成的，所以在使用時不會有問題；如果用Qt官方的MinGW版本的Qt進行使用，則不能成功，即使編譯通過，會輸出：Process finished with exit code -1073741511 (0xC0000139)，打開執行文件會提示無法定位程序入口的彈窗，如必須使用此版本Qt，那需要通過qwt源碼，用此Qt版本工具中的MinGW重新編譯生成qwt庫，再行使用方可。同時，這也體現在CLion的Toolchains設置中，各項也都應保持一致。
附：pacman基本命令參數
更新本地軟件包： pacman -S --refresh 可以縮寫為：pacman -Sy 升級軟件包： pacman -S --refresh --sysupgrade 可以縮寫為：pacman -Syu 列出所有已安裝軟件包： pacman -Q --explicit 或者 pacman -Q -e 可以列出所有的軟件組： pacman -Q --groups 安裝新的軟件包： pacman -S <package_names|package_groups> 比如安裝 Qt5： pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-qt5 注：可以不用明確軟件包版本，系統會根據依賴項進行自動匹配下載相應版本。 搜索軟件包： 如果不清楚軟件的准確名稱，可以通過核心軟件名查詢軟件包的名稱。 pacman -Ss <name_pattern> 比如搜索gcc相關的軟件 pacman -Ss gcc 刪除軟件包： pacman -R <package_names|package_groups>

開發環境安裝配置示例：
https://www.devdungeon.com/content/install-gcc-compiler-windows-msys2-cc
- Install gcc compiler on Windows with MSYS2 for C/C++
- Installing and running MSYS2
Download MSYS2 from http://www.msys2.org/. Download the .exe file and follow the installation instructions on the site. After installing, navigate to the directory where it was installed, and run msys2.exe. For this tutorial, we will assume the default location of C:\msys64. After opening it you should find yourself in a bash shell.
- Updating MSYS2
MSYS2 uses the pacman package manager that the Arch Linux distribution uses. After your initial install it is a good idea to update all the packages. Update everything using:
pacman –Syu pacman –Su
- Installing gcc using MSYS2
In the MSYS2 bash shell, use pacman again to install the build toolchain and compilers. Run the command below to install the mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain package group.
# Install make, autoconf, etc to C:\msys64\usr\bin pacman -S base-devel
# pacman -S base-devel 1) asciidoc 2) autoconf 3) autoconf2.13 4) autogen 5) automake-wrapper 6) automake1.10 7) automake1.11 8) automake1.12 9) automake1.13 10) automake1.14 11) automake1.15 12) automake1.16 13) automake1.6 14) automake1.7 15) automake1.8 16) automake1.9 17) bison 18) diffstat 19) diffutils 20) dos2unix 21) file 22) flex 23) gawk 24) gdb 25) gettext 26) gettext-devel 27) gperf 28) grep 29) groff 30) help2man 31) intltool 32) lemon 33) libtool 34) libunrar 35) libunrar-devel 36) m4 37) make 38) man-db 39) pacman 40) pactoys-git 41) patch 42) patchutils 43) perl 44) pkg-config 45) pkgfile 46) quilt 47) rcs 48) scons 49) sed 50) swig 51) texinfo 52) texinfo-tex 53) ttyrec
- Installing other packages with pacman
If you want to compile an SSL program that links to libssl and libcrypto with -lssl -lcrypto you will need to install openssl-devel as shown below. There are many other devel packages. For example, libbz2-devel, libelf-devel, libunrar-devel, and libyaml-devel. The environment is rather limited, but it can be useful for learning.
# Install all *-devel packages pacman -S development
Packages included in "development" group:
:: There are 78 members in group development: :: Repository msys 1) apr-devel 2) apr-util-devel 3) aspell-devel 4) bash-devel 5) cloog-devel 6) gamin-devel 7) gettext-devel 8) glib2-devel 9) gmp-devel 10) heimdal-devel 11) icu-devel 12) isl-devel 13) jansson-devel 14) jsoncpp-devel 15) libarchive-devel 16) libargp-devel 17) libassuan-devel 18) libatomic_ops-devel 19) libbobcat-devel 20) libbz2-devel 21) libcares-devel 22) libcrypt-devel 23) libcurl-devel 24) libdb-devel 25) libedit-devel 26) libelf-devel 27) libevent-devel 28) libexpat-devel 29) libffi-devel 30) libgc-devel 31) libgcrypt-devel 32) libgdbm-devel 33) libgnutls-devel 34) libgpg-error-devel 35) libgpgme-devel 36) libgpgme-python2 37) libgpgme-python3 38) libguile-devel 39) libiconv-devel 40) libidn-devel 41) libidn2-devel 42) libksba-devel 43) liblz4-devel 44) liblzma-devel 45) liblzo2-devel 46) libmetalink-devel 47) libneon-devel 48) libnettle-devel 49) libnghttp2-devel 50) libnpth-devel 51) libp11-kit-devel 52) libpipeline-devel 53) libpsl-devel 54) libreadline-devel 55) librhash-devel 56) libsasl-devel 57) libserf-devel 58) libsqlite-devel 59) libssh2-devel 60) libtasn1-devel 61) libtirpc-devel 62) libtre-devel-git 63) libunistring-devel 64) libuv-devel 65) libxml2-devel 66) libxslt-devel 67) libyaml-devel 68) mpc-devel 69) mpfr-devel 70) ncurses-devel 71) openssl-devel 72) pcre-devel 73) pcre2-devel 74) protobuf-devel 75) ucl-devel 76) util-macros 77) xproto 78) zlib-devel
- Optional: Add executables to your Windows PATH
If you want to access everything from your Windows Command Prompt, then add the bin directory to your Windows PATH environment variable. Keep in mind this adds a lot of executables to your path which might conflict with other applications. The usr\bin\ directory contains the whole slew of executables listed above. There is a lot of unnecessary stuff in that directory. mingw64\bin\ directory :
;C:\msys64;C:\msys64\mingw64\bin;C:\msys64\usr\bin
- Header files and libraries
Libraries and include files can be found in two places.
# The dynamic lib runtime .dll files will be in bin dirs # Add the bin directory to PATH environment variable so it can find the .dll files C:\msys64\mingw64\bin C:\msys64\usr\bin # Static libraries C:\msys64\usr\lib C:\msys64\mingw64\lib # Header files C:\msys64\usr\include C:\msys64\mingw64\include
- A note about msys vs mingw64 repos
Some things are only available in the msys/ repo like vim and git, and will only be available in \usr\bin\. Some things like gcc are available in msys\, mingw32\, and mingw64\ repos and can potentially end up being installed in both \usr\bin\ and \mingw64\bin\. This is where you have to be careful about how you set up your PATH environment variable. If you add \usr\bin\ in order to make vim or git available, you will also add everything in that directory, which may conflict with something if you also add the \mingw64\bin\ directory to your path. If you only want the toolchain without as much extra stuff, use the mingw64 packages. Then you can add only the \mingw64\bin directory to your PATH if desired. The mingw64 repository generally has more libraries available for install that are unavailable in the general msys repo (e.g. SDL, exif, freeglut). The msys packages are intended to be used inside the msys shell, and the mingw packages are intended to be used outside of msys2.
