Build

This project supports both Qt 5 and Qt 6 builds.

For more project list: https://product.xmuli.tech

• Environment: This project compiles successfully with both Qt 5.15.2 and 6.8.3 LTS versions. Tested minimum build version is Qt 5.12; lower versions are unverified.
• IDE: We recommend using Qt Creator directly to open CMakeLists.txt for building.
• Other: You may also convert CMake to .sln manually and build using Visual Studio 2022.

Windows Build

1. Install Qt (recommended: Qt 5.15 or Qt 6.8 LTS)
2. Open CMakeLists.txt directly in the Qt Creator IDE
3. Click Build > Compile in the bottom-left corner
4. You should see it run successfully. Enjoy~

Linux / Mac Build

1. Using Debian and Ubuntu as examples, install Qt (recommended: Qt 5.15 or Qt 6.8 LTS) Execute:

   $ sudo apt install cmake qtbase5-dev qt5-default libqt5svg5-dev qtmultimedia5-dev qttools5-dev libqt5x11extras5-dev

2. Run commands:

   $ git clone https://github.com/XMuli/ChineseChess.git
   $ cd ChineseChess
   $ mkdir build && cd build
   $ cmake ..
   $ make

3. Alternatively, you can skip Step 2 and directly use Qt Creator for compilation and execution, which is more convenient.
