'Using VCPKG with cmake and Qt 6 for Windows ARM64
Qt 6.2 introduced Windows on Arm support (https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-85820). I tried to create a new cmake project set up using Qt Creator and everything works fine. Then I wanted to add some external packages to my project using vcpkg. The standard way to use vcpkg with cmake is using the CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE variable (as mentioned here. However, when I clicked on project settings in Qt Creator (Projects > Build) it seems that Qt Creator has already set up the CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE variable to another file
Presumably, this is done so that it is possible to cross-compile an ARM64 binary from a x64 machine. However, this prevents me from setting up vcpkg within my Qt project. Is there a way to get around this issue? Does CMake support multiple toolchain files or is there an alternative setup for my scenario?
