When calling qt-cmake on the command line, we don't usually force
usage of a particular CMake generator and defer to the user's choice
or CMake's default for the host OS.
In the case of iOS, the generator that makes the most sense to use is
Xcode. One could also use Ninja / Unix Makefiles if the project
is only building static libraries, but for shared libraries and
executables the project likely needs the code signing
provided by xcodebuild.
When targeting iOS, use a different qt-cmake file template.
The iOS-specific shell script will set the CMAKE_GENERATOR environment
variable to 'Xcode'.
If no -G or -D CMAKE_GENERATOR is provided on the command line then
the project will use the Xcode generator. Otherwise the generator
given on the command line takes precedence.
The CMAKE_GENERATOR environment variable from the parent process is
completely ignored.
The logic is only done for iOS, to reduce the likeliness
of breaking the qt-cmake script for other platforms.
Note that Qt Creator does not use qt-cmake, but rather calls cmake
directly with additional options like the toolchain file,
architecture, sysroot, etc.
[ChangeLog][iOS][CMake] qt-cmake now defaults to using the Xcode
generator when targeting iOS projects.

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.

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.

Possible values: "Release, Debug, RelWithDebInfo, MinRelSize".

The first configuration is the 'default' configuration which is

To build all targets of a certain configuration use "ninja all:Release"

To build all targets in all configurations use "ninja all:all".
Note that the first configuration influences which configuration of

In simple terms, when configured with
-DCMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES="Release;Debug" the release version of moc
is used by AUTOMOC.
When configured with -DCMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES="Debug;Release"
the debug version of moc is used by AUTOMOC.
Framework builds and Ninja Multi-Config don't currently work together
due to multiple bugs in CMake, which ends up generating an invalid ninja
