If a consumer wants to cross-compile a Qt app, they need to provide
the host Qt path location.
When building Qt in the CI we embed the Qt host path into the
generated CMake toolchain file for convenient building of other Qt
modules.
But once Qt is built, packaged and installed on a user's machine, most
likely the Qt host path will not be the same. In such a case, if the
user wants to use the convenience toolchain, they should explicitly
provide the Qt host path via the QT_HOST_PATH and
QT_HOST_PATH_CMAKE_DIR variables.
Show an error message if the values are not provided or don't exist
on the file system.
It's possible that in the future the Qt installer will patch the
toolchain file, or provide additional info, to point to the host
Qt installation so that the user doesn't have to do it manually.
But until that's done, a friendly error message is a good way to
inform the user what they should do.

Public consumers of the qt toolchain file will most likely not have

Only set the compiler paths if none was set already, and the paths

This seems to become a trend in the generated toolchain file, and is

A proper solution (two different toolchain files) may follow.

mkspecs/features/qt.prf adds a dependency on the system threading

loaded by any public or internal Qt project, it's essentially a public
dependency for any Qt consumer.

and set the Threads::Threads library as a dependency of Qt6::Platform,
which is a public target used by all Qt modules and plugins and Qt

We also need to create a Qt6Dependencies.cmake file so we

While trying to implement the 'host artifact reuse' Coin instructions
change, a bug surfaced where the qemu configurations didn't find
the host tools and instead tried to use the cross-compiled tools
while building qtbase, which failed due to not finding the
runtime linker (another unsolved issue).
Before the host artifact reuse change, the host tools were found
successfully.
The difference that caused the issue is that the target install prefix
was a direct subfolder of the host prefix.
host - /home/qt/work/qt/install
target - /home/qt/work/qt/install/target
Before the host reuse change the install prefixes were as follows
host - /home/qt/work/qt/install/host
target - /home/qt/work/qt/install/target
While looking for the Qt6CoreTools package, we temporarily set
CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH and CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to contain first
'/home/qt/work/qt/install' and then '/home/qt/work/qt/install/target'.
CMake then reroots the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH values onto values in
CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH, making an MxN list of prefixes to search.
Rerooting essentially means concatenating 2 paths, unless the
considered prefix is a subfolder of the root path.
What happened was that the first considered value was
'/home/qt/work/qt/install/home/qt/work/qt/install', a non-existent
location that gets discarded.
The second considered value was '/home/qt/work/qt/install/target.
The second value is the result of seeing that
'/home/qt/work/qt/install/target' is a subfolder of
'/home/qt/work/qt/install' and thus the root path is stripped.
All of this is done in cmFindPackageCommand::FindConfig() ->
cmFindCommon::RerootPaths.
The behavior above caused the target tools be found instead of the
host ones.
Before the host reuse change, both of the initial constructed prefixes
were discared due to them not existing, e.g.
'/home/qt/work/qt/install/target/home/qt/work/qt/install/target'
and '/home/qt/work/qt/install/host/home/qt/work/qt/install/host'
One of the later prefixes combined CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH ==
'/home/qt/work/qt/install/host' + CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH == '/' resulting
in '/home/qt/work/qt/install/host/' and this accidentally found the
host tools package.
We actually stumbled upon this issue a while ago when implementing Qt
5.14 Android CMake support in 52c799ed44
That commit message mentions the fix is to add a "lib/cmake"
suffix to the PATHS option of find_package().
This would cause the subfolder => strip root behavior mentioned
above.
So finally the fix.
First, make sure not to append QT_HOST_PATH in the toolchain file,
there shouldn't be any need to do that, give that we temporarily set
it when looking for Tools packages.
Second, recreate the subdir scenario in the Qt toolchain file by
setting CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH to the current (relocated) install
prefix as usual, but also setting CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to a new value
poining to the CMake directory.
Aka '/home/alex/qt' and '/home/alex/qt/lib/cmake'.
Third, when a QT_HOST_PATH is given, save 2 paths in the generated Qt
toolchain: QT_HOST_PATH and QT_HOST_PATH_CMAKE_DIR. There are the host
equivalents of the target ones above. Use these values when looking
for host tools in Qt6CoreModuleDependencies.cmake, again facilitaing
the subdir behavior.
Note these are currently absolute paths and are not relocatable.
We'll have to figure out if it's even possible to make the host path
relocatable.
Finally as a cleanup, look for the Qt6HostInfo package in QtSetup
strictly in the given QT_HOST_PATH, so CMake doesn't accidentally find
a system Qt package.

Aka handle CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX in a more relocatable way.
The following story inspired this change.
If a user wants to build a Qt repo into a different install prefix
than the usual Qt one, this will fail configuration because we
look for various things like syncqt, qdoc, etc relative to
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX, which will now point to a different location
where none of the above tools are located.
The intent for such a use case is to support building Qt packages with
Conan, which sets a random install prefix when configuring a repo.
The idea is to derive the qt prefix dynamically from the
QtBuildInternals package location. Essentially it's a reverse relative
path from the QtBuildInternalsConfig.cmake file to the install prefix
that was specified when initially configuring qtbase.
Once the dynamic prefix is computed (so we know where the possibly
relocated Qt is), we can find tools like syncqt and qdoc.
This is an initial attempt to support a use case like that.
More design work will probably needed in case if tools / libs need to
be found in a location different than the Qt install prefix (so
support for multiple install prefixes / search paths).
An example of such a case would be when building qtdeclarative and
qtquickcontrols2 as Conan packages in one go. Most likely the
qmltyperegistrar tool will be located in the random install prefix
set by Conan, so building qtquickcontrols2 might fail due to not
finding the tool in the original Qt install prefix.
As to the implementation details, the change does the following:
- Dynamically computes and sets the
QT_BUILD_INTERNALS_RELOCATABLE_INSTALL_PREFIX variable when
find_package()'ing QtBuildInternals. It's an absolute path
pointing to where the relocated Qt is.
- When building qtbase this variable is not yet available (due
to QtBuildInternalsExtra not existing), in that case we set
the variable to the absolute path of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
(but only for the initial qtbase configuration).
- Remove QT_BUILD_INTERNALS_ORIGINAL_INSTALL_PREFIX which was used
for standalone tests purposes. It's not needed now that we compute
the location of the Qt prefix dynamically.
- The Unixy qt-cmake and qt-cmake-private shell scripts now
use a relative path to find the toolchain file we created.
- The toolchain file also dynamically computes the location of the Qt
packages, and adds them to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.
- A lot of existing CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX uses are replaced with
QT_BUILD_INTERNALS_RELOCATABLE_INSTALL_PREFIX. This includes finding
tool locations, mkspecs dir, path environment setup for tools, etc.
- Some places still use CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH in the following cases
- When determining paths while configuring qtbase (valid cases)
- When I wasn't sure what the behavior should be, so I left them
as-is (an example is documentation generation, do we want to
install it into the random Conan prefix, or into the main prefix?
Currently it installs in the random prefix).
Note that relocating a Qt installation does not work for non-prefix /
non-installed builds, due to hardcoded paths to include directories
and libraries in generated FooTargets.cmake files.

It has the same kind of signature as file(GENERATE) but
creates the files at configure time rather than generation time.
CMake provides a few ways to generate files
file(WRITE) -> always overrides content
configure_file() -> only overrides if content changes, creates file
at configure time, can only take a file as input
file(GENERATE) -> only overrides if content changes, creats file
at generation time, can take a string or file
as input
Because dealing with an input file is a hassle (need to create one,
make sure it's installed, make sure it's used correctly in the
various build types like super-build, non-prefix-build, etc)
people tend to use file(GENERATE) instead, which can take a string
argument, and is thus easier to use.
Unfortunately that introduces subtle bugs because the
file is created at generation time, but there are existence
checks which are done at configuration time.
Thus qt_configure_file allows creation of files at configure time,
without having to provide an input file. Underneath it uses
configure_file(). Once CMake 3.18 is released, the implementation
can be switched to use file(CONFIGURE).

Before this patch there were a few ways to build tests
- Configure all tests as part of the repo build
- Configure all tests as part of the repo build, but don't build
tests by default (-DQT_NO_MAKE_TESTS=ON)
- Configure all tests as a standalone project in a separate build
dir using -QT_BUILD_STANDALONE_TESTS=ON
All of the above incur some time overhead due to the necessity
of configuring all tests.
Sometimes you just want to build ONE test (or a few).
To facilitate that use case, a new shell script called
bin/qt-cmake-standalone-test(.bat) can now be used to configure
and build one or more tests.
The script takes one single argument pointing to the desired test
project path and configures a generic template project that sets up
all the necessary Qt CMake private API, afterwards calling
add_subdirectory on the passed in project.
Example
$ path/to/qt/bin/qt-cmake-standalone-test ./tests/auto/gui/image/qicon
or
$ path/to/qt/bin/qt-cmake-standalone-test ./tests/auto/gui/image
After that, simply run 'ninja && ctest' to build and run the test(s).
This is the CMake equivalent of calling qmake on a test .pro file
(or on a tests SUBDIRS .pro file)
There are 3 details worth mentioning.
Due to the add_subdirectory call, the built artifacts will not
be in the top-level build dir, but rather in a nested build_dir.
The script currently can't handle more than one argument
(the path to the project), so you can't pass additional
-DFoo=bar arguments.
If a test uses a 3rd party library (like Threads::Threads)
which was not a public dependency for any of the Qt modules,
configuration will fail saying that the target was not found.
Perhaps we should consider recording these packages when
generating the StandaloneConfig.cmake files.

The default Info.plist shipped with CMake lacks an NSPrincipalClass
entry, which is crucial for making macOS apps run in full resolution
on retina screens.
We make sure the file is only picked up on macOS, not iOS and friends,
since those platforms require another principal class. If needed we can
extract the value out as a CMake variable and use the same file for all
Apple platforms. Doing so would assume all keys are single-platform
only, so if that's not the case we need platform-specific files.
We should probably extract the package type out as a variable too,
so that the file can be used for both apps, plugins, and frameworks,
but doing so requires setting up that variable somewhere based on
the target type, which CMake doesn't allow in an easy way.
The file itself is based on the file CMake ships, combined with
keys inherited from Qt's existing plist templates for qmake, and
adjusted to match what Xcode generates by default these days.

For this, we have to uninline the separate_debug_info configure test,
because supporting the conversion of this in configurejson2cmake is not
worth the hassle.
Separate debug information can be turned on for a target by calling the
function qt_enable_separate_debug_info. For Qt's shared libraries and
tools separate debug information is generated if the
'separate_debug_info' feature is manually turned on.

Previously the FindWrap modules checked for hardcoded features
when deciding whether to use a bundled library or not. This proved
not to work correctly because features were not available when
the find modules were processed.
Introduce a new CMake API call that needs to be manually called
after an add_subdirectory call which declares a bundled library.
The call will check for the existence of the bundled target, and will
then set a cache variable QT_USE_BUNDLED_Bundled<TargetName>.
The same variable is written into a FindWrapFooConfigExtra.cmake file
which will be loaded by the appropriate FindWrap module. The module
can that use that variable to decided whether to link against the
bundled library or the system library.

A few things are needed to accomplish that:
- the python scripts do not ignore certain system_foo features anymore
(it is a hardcoded list for now just to be safe)
- configurejson2cmake now outputs
qt_find_package(WrapSystemFoo) calls for bundled libraries
(see below)
- the harfbuzz .pro file is modified to accommodate pro2cmake
not being able to correctly parse some conditional scopes
- the freetype .pro file is modified to make sure linking of the
library succeeds without duplicate symbol errors, which qmake
doesn't encounter due to magical exclusion of cpp files that are
included in other cpp files (presumably for include moc_foo.cpp
support)
- feature evaluation for Core, Gui, Network now happens in the
qtbase/src directory, so that bundled libraries can be conditionally
built
- for each bundled library there are now two FindWrap scripts:
- FindWrapSystemFoo which finds an installed library in the system
- FindWrapFoo which either uses the system installed library or
the built bundled one depending on a condition
- projects that intend to use bundled libraries need to link against
WrapFoo::WrapFoo instead of WrapSystemFoo::WrapSystemFoo targets
(this is handled by pro2cmake).
Unfortunately manually added qt_find_package(WrapFoo) calls might
still be needed as is the case for WrapFreetype and others.
- a new cmake/QtFindWrapHelper.cmake file is added that provides
a macro to simplify creation of WrapFoo targets that link against
a bundled or system library. The implementation is fairly ugly
due to CMake macro constraints, but it was deemed better than
copy-pasting a bunch of almost identical code across all
FindWrapFoo.cmake files.
- a qtzlib header-only module is now created when using bundled
zlib, to provide public syncqt created headers for consumers
that need them. These are projects that have
'QT_PRIVATE += zlib-private' in their .pro files
(e.g. qtimageformats, qtlocation, qt3d, etc.)
This is unfortunately needed due to QtNetwork using zlib
types in its private C++ API.
The change includes support for building the following bundled
libraries:
- zlib
- libpng
- libjpeg
- Freetype
- Harfbuzz-ng
- PCRE2
The following 3rd party libraries are still using an old
implementation within the CMake build system, and should be migrated
to the new one in the near future:
- double-conversion
- Old harfbuzz
The are a few libraries that are not yet ported:
- system-sqlite
- systemxcb
- maybe others
Among other things, this change allows building qtbase on Windows
without requiring vcpkg.
