Introduction
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
CMake can find and use Qt 4 and Qt 5 libraries. The Qt 4 libraries are found
|
||||
by the :module:`FindQt4` find-module shipped with CMake, whereas the
|
||||
Qt 5 libraries are found using "Config-file Packages" shipped with Qt 5. See
|
||||
:manual:`cmake-packages(7)` for more information about CMake packages, and
|
||||
see `the Qt cmake manual <http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/cmake-manual.html>`_
|
||||
for your Qt version.
|
||||
|
||||
Qt 4 and Qt 5 may be used together in the same
|
||||
:manual:`CMake buildsystem <cmake-buildsystem(7)>`:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: cmake
|
||||
|
||||
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0.0 FATAL_ERROR)
|
||||
|
||||
project(Qt4And5)
|
||||
|
||||
set(CMAKE_AUTOMOC ON)
|
||||
set(CMAKE_INCLUDE_CURRENT_DIR ON)
|
||||
|
||||
find_package(Qt5Widgets REQUIRED)
|
||||
add_executable(publisher publisher.cpp)
|
||||
target_link_libraries(publisher Qt5::Widgets Qt5::DBus)
|
||||
|
||||
find_package(Qt4 REQUIRED)
|
||||
add_executable(subscriber subscriber.cpp)
|
||||
target_link_libraries(subscriber Qt4::QtGui Qt4::QtDBus)
|
||||
|
||||
A CMake target may not link to both Qt 4 and Qt 5. A diagnostic is issued if
|
||||
this is attempted or results from transitive target dependency evaluation.
|
||||
|
||||
Qt Build Tools
|
||||
==============
|
||||
|
||||
Qt relies on some bundled tools for code generation, such as ``moc`` for
|
||||
meta-object code generation, ``uic`` for widget layout and population,
|
||||
and ``rcc`` for virtual filesystem content generation. These tools may be
|
||||
automatically invoked by :manual:`cmake(1)` if the appropriate conditions
|
||||
are met. The automatic tool invocation may be used with both Qt 4 and Qt 5.
|
||||
|
||||
The tools are executed as part of a synthesized custom target generated by
|
||||
CMake. Target dependencies may be added to that custom target by adding them
|
||||
to the :prop_tgt:`AUTOGEN_TARGET_DEPENDS` target property.
|
||||
|
||||
AUTOMOC
|
||||
'''''''
|
||||
|
||||
The :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` target property controls whether :manual:`cmake(1)`
|
||||
inspects the C++ files in the target to determine if they require ``moc`` to
|
||||
be run, and to create rules to execute ``moc`` at the appropriate time.
|
||||
|
||||
If a ``Q_OBJECT`` or ``Q_GADGET`` macro is found in a header file, ``moc``
|
||||
will be run on the file. The result will be put into a file named according
|
||||
to ``moc_<basename>.cpp``. If the macro is found in a C++ implementation
|
||||
file, the moc output will be put into a file named according to
|
||||
``<basename>.moc``, following the Qt conventions. The ``moc file`` may be
|
||||
included by the user in the C++ implementation file with a preprocessor
|
||||
``#include``. If it is not so included, it will be added to a separate file
|
||||
which is compiled into the target.
|
||||
|
||||
The ``moc`` command line will consume the :prop_tgt:`COMPILE_DEFINITIONS` and
|
||||
:prop_tgt:`INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` target properties from the target it is being
|
||||
invoked for, and for the appropriate build configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
Generated ``moc_*.cpp`` and ``*.moc`` files are placed in the build directory
|
||||
so it is convenient to set the :variable:`CMAKE_INCLUDE_CURRENT_DIR`
|
||||
variable. The :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` target property may be pre-set for all
|
||||
following targets by setting the :variable:`CMAKE_AUTOMOC` variable. The
|
||||
:prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC_MOC_OPTIONS` target property may be populated to set
|
||||
options to pass to ``moc``. The :variable:`CMAKE_AUTOMOC_MOC_OPTIONS`
|
||||
variable may be populated to pre-set the options for all following targets.
|
||||
|
||||
AUTOUIC
|
||||
'''''''
|
||||
|
||||
The :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC` target property controls whether :manual:`cmake(1)`
|
||||
inspects the C++ files in the target to determine if they require ``uic`` to
|
||||
be run, and to create rules to execute ``uic`` at the appropriate time.
|
||||
|
||||
If a preprocessor ``#include`` directive is found which matches
|
||||
``ui_<basename>.h``, and a ``<basename>.ui`` file exists, then ``uic`` will
|
||||
be executed to generate the appropriate file.
|
||||
|
||||
Generated ``ui_*.h`` files are placed in the build directory so it is
|
||||
convenient to set the :variable:`CMAKE_INCLUDE_CURRENT_DIR` variable. The
|
||||
:prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC` target property may be pre-set for all following targets
|
||||
by setting the :variable:`CMAKE_AUTOUIC` variable. The
|
||||
:prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC_OPTIONS` target property may be populated to set options
|
||||
to pass to ``uic``. The :variable:`CMAKE_AUTOUIC_OPTIONS` variable may be
|
||||
populated to pre-set the options for all following targets. The
|
||||
:prop_sf:`AUTOUIC_OPTIONS` source file property may be set on the
|
||||
``<basename>.ui`` file to set particular options for the file. This
|
||||
overrides options from the :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC_OPTIONS` target property.
|
||||
|
||||
A target may populate the :prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_AUTOUIC_OPTIONS` target
|
||||
property with options that should be used when invoking ``uic``. This must be
|
||||
consistent with the :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC_OPTIONS` target property content of the
|
||||
depender target. The :variable:`CMAKE_DEBUG_TARGET_PROPERTIES` variable may
|
||||
be used to track the origin target of such
|
||||
:prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_AUTOUIC_OPTIONS`. This means that a library which
|
||||
provides an alternative translation system for Qt may specify options which
|
||||
should be used when running ``uic``:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: cmake
|
||||
|
||||
add_library(KI18n klocalizedstring.cpp)
|
||||
target_link_libraries(KI18n Qt5::Core)
|
||||
|
||||
# KI18n uses the tr2i18n() function instead of tr(). That function is
|
||||
# declared in the klocalizedstring.h header.
|
||||
set(autouic_options
|
||||
-tr tr2i18n
|
||||
-include klocalizedstring.h
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
set_property(TARGET KI18n APPEND PROPERTY
|
||||
INTERFACE_AUTOUIC_OPTIONS ${autouic_options}
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
A consuming project linking to the target exported from upstream automatically
|
||||
uses appropriate options when ``uic`` is run by :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC`, as a
|
||||
result of linking with the :prop_tgt:`IMPORTED` target:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: cmake
|
||||
|
||||
set(CMAKE_AUTOUIC ON)
|
||||
# Uses a libwidget.ui file:
|
||||
add_library(LibWidget libwidget.cpp)
|
||||
target_link_libraries(LibWidget
|
||||
KF5::KI18n
|
||||
Qt5::Widgets
|
||||
)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
AUTORCC
|
||||
'''''''
|
||||
|
||||
The :prop_tgt:`AUTORCC` target property controls whether :manual:`cmake(1)`
|
||||
creates rules to execute ``rcc`` at the appropriate time on source files
|
||||
which have the suffix ``.qrc``.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: cmake
|
||||
|
||||
add_executable(myexe main.cpp resource_file.qrc)
|
||||
|
||||
The :prop_tgt:`AUTORCC` target property may be pre-set for all following targets
|
||||
by setting the :variable:`CMAKE_AUTORCC` variable. The
|
||||
:prop_tgt:`AUTORCC_OPTIONS` target property may be populated to set options
|
||||
to pass to ``rcc``. The :variable:`CMAKE_AUTORCC_OPTIONS` variable may be
|
||||
populated to pre-set the options for all following targets. The
|
||||
:prop_sf:`AUTORCC_OPTIONS` source file property may be set on the
|
||||
``<name>.qrc`` file to set particular options for the file. This
|
||||
overrides options from the :prop_tgt:`AUTORCC_OPTIONS` target property.
|
||||
|
||||
qtmain.lib on Windows
|
||||
=====================
|
||||
|
||||
The Qt 4 and 5 :prop_tgt:`IMPORTED` targets for the QtGui libraries specify
|
||||
that the qtmain.lib static library shipped with Qt will be linked by all
|
||||
dependent executables which have the :prop_tgt:`WIN32_EXECUTABLE` enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
Do disable this behavior, enable the ``Qt5_NO_LINK_QTMAIN`` target property for
|
||||
Qt 5 based targets or ``QT4_NO_LINK_QTMAIN`` target property for Qt 4 based
|
||||
targets.
