index error replacement index 1 out of range for positional args tuple

[ShivamMahajan10]

I am running the command as cmake-converter - "path.sln"

[pavelliavonau]

Very informative.
Thank you.

Same error here. It's a Qt project

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

@marc6h , have you checked all the issues before posting this??

[antisergey]

In fact it's the same as in #128 , which was closed about a year ago.
Still the question is - is there any workaround?
I had the same problem and the reason was the setup project: in *.sln-file all the projects in the postProject section had configs like:
{guid}.Debug|x64.ActiveCfg = Debug|x64
{guid}.Release|x64.ActiveCfg = Release|x64
the setup project was:
{guid}.Debug|x64.ActiveCfg = Debug
{guid}.Release|x64.ActiveCfg = Release
So no '|', and IndexError.
Removing such kinds of projects from *.sln solved the IndexError issue in my case.

It seem that the text below in the *.vcproj file will cause this error:
<QtMsBuild Condition="'$(QtMsBuild)'=='' OR !Exists('$(QtMsBuild)\qt.targets')">$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)\QtMsBuild</QtMsBuild>

#128 (comment)

Cmake converter does not and won't support handmade msbuild files. It's not parser of msbuild language.

how hard can it be to parse these expressions? these are
boolean expressions, strings, string interpolations, variables, function calls

i looked at 10 different vcxproj converters
and none of them handle the Condition="..." attributes
