How to Use OpenVPN3 Libraryi With CMAKE ?

Hello, I am trying to use Qt6 and OpenVPN3 as libraries for some of my experiments, but I have not been able to make any progress for 2-3 days. Can you tell me where I made a mistake?

First of all, I managed to download the project and build it successfully.

Here's my compile output. Compile all good

    engine.load(url);

    return app.exec();
}

This is the error I get when I try to build my project.

I couldn't find an example on exactly how to use this library. There are a few open source projects, but CMakeList files are very complex. Can you help me?
