Hey everyone,
I’m having some trouble building the project. I’ve just downloaded the VST 3.6.8 Audio Plug-Ins SDK and have attempted to build it using Cmake (3.10.1) through Qt Creator via “Open File or Project” and selecting CMakeLists.txt from the top of the VST3_SDK folder, as per the instructions in the docs. My OS is 64-bit Windows 10.
The errors are to do with vstgui and EXPAT. I am getting the following output from Cmake:
The CXX compiler identification is GNU 6.3.0
Check for working C compiler: C:/MinGW/bin/gcc.exe
Check for working C compiler: C:/MinGW/bin/gcc.exe -- works

SMTG_AAX_SDK_PATH is not set. If you need it, please download the AAX SDK!
You have called ADD_LIBRARY for library vstgui without any source files. This typically indicates a problem with your CMakeLists.txt file
Could NOT find EXPAT (missing: EXPAT_LIBRARY EXPAT_INCLUDE_DIR)

Any tips are appreciated!
