Hello, I am a beginner in Qt, and I just installed the ArcGIS SDK for Qt, but I'm facing a problem. All of the header files from the SDK do not work. It says "file not found."
I followed the installation guide for Windows here https://developers.arcgis.com/qt/install-and-set-up/, but even the provided sample projects at https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-maps-sdk-samples-qt/tree/main do not work. It is as if Qt is oblivious to the header files' existence. I have a suspicion that the problem may be related to the integration with Qt creator. When I first installed the ArcGIS SDK, it did not create files in the templates folder in Qt because there was no templates folder as I read at a previous entry here. To fix this, I created a folder named "templates" inside the Qt directory and created another folder inside it called "wizards". I then ran the post-install script to do the IDE Integration. When I did this, the ArcGIS project templates have appeared, but when I create any project using them, all of the SDK's header files cannot be found. I hope anyone could help. Thanks!

Ok based on those messages, there could be two different issues.
First, our Maps SDK for Qt requires the positioning, sensors, and websockets Qt modules. Double check that those are present when you installed Qt. Those are typically listed as additional liraries
As for the strange "no such file" problem, that could be a Windows-specific problem we run into on the team ourselves. That (any related problems) happen with very long paths. One way that we deal with that is to drastically shorten the shadow build folder path. Here's an example on my machine. In the projects tab, I changed the "Build directory" to a shorter length than the default.
I got the correct message now:
But all of the project files give a message that they are not included in the project, and now the QObject header cannot be found:
I changed to MSVC 2019. Thanks for pointing that out, but the same problem happens:
Also It says that the files are not included in the project even though they are written in the .pro file
I did it but it did not fix the issue. Here is a screenshot for the build issue
And here is a message that came:
