[Qt-creator] it's a pain: QML Import Path not found and auto-completion broken working w multi projects / multi kits

[ekke]

QtCreator gets so many cool new features, but daily work is a real pain, if

* working with some projects using different Kits (Android, iOS,
Desktop) and have different selected
* having same ClassNames and context properties in multi projects


have created two videos to demonstrate this:

QML Import Path not found:

* https://vimeo.com/299921441/949b6c6680
* https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-20195

The First One Wins: auto-completion broken:

* https://vimeo.com/299922361/77febdfceb
* https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-20211


Both bugs break code-completion: the first one for all imports not
found, second one for all but the first project accessing context
properties with sdame name in different projects

this slows down productivity

Hi QtCreator Team,

is there any chance to get this better done ?

see my other mail: it's not only broken code completion in QML but also
in C++ if Android is current selected Kit (see my other mail)

at the moment I avoid to demonstrate QtCreator as cool IDE for mobile
x-platform development to other devs at conferences,
because I always fear to have a wrong combination of selected Kits and
code-assist is broken in QML and/or C++

as a "workaround" sometimes I'm opening multi QtC instances with only
one project open in each one ;-)

thx

I agree. It's also _very_ confusing to newbies, that you can't always
trust this mechanism. You've got to know better than the IDE. And
you've got to know when you know better than the IDE.
