The basic idea is we create a version header template at
"src/base/version.h.in" and the build systems are expected to replace
strings that are enclosed with @ symbols and generate
"src/base/version.h" for other source files to consume/include.
This is unexpected for users that take single job compilation as the
default (which is always the case since forever). Users can change the
default if they wish to use multicore for compilation.
- Bump minimum required version and
make use of more modern language features
- Rely more on target_...() commands to establish dependency
relationships between targets rather than directory property commands
- Improve libtorrent package discovery
- Enable and handle application features more explicitly
- Improve user-facing output
- Fix various compilation issues on Windows (MSVC and MinGW) and macOS
- Improve handling of translations
- Add explanatory comments where relevant
- Make CMake scripts fully independent of qmake files/details
- Remove old functions/macros
If we were conditionally enabling _BSD_SOURCE or _SVID_SOURCE, I can
understand trying to play nice with the compiler and only pass as
needed, however this is not the case and glibc <= 2.19 will not care
that we are passing _DEFAULT_SOURCE. This removes an unnecessary
build step and gives us less to maintain from a build system
perspective.
Small cosmetic changes to MacroQbtCompilerSettings are included.
Our previous setup lead to two unintended consequences:
* Debug flags were included in both release and debug builds instead
of just debug builds
* Clang doesn't support -gX (where X is the level of debugging
optimization), but we checked for -Og support instead
This commit avoids both of these scenarios by removing the additional
flags altogether. Partial resolution to #11856.
Qt translations have to be compiled in a shared library or executable,
and since we use static libraries for the components, webui translation
files have to be compiled into the main executable.
Look for qtsinglecoreapplication.h when Qt5Widgets module was not found,
and qtsingleapplication.h otherwise. Fixes#9196.
This also removes Qt4 support from the QtSingleApplication find module.
1. Use FeatureSummary module to show configuration results.
2. Invert option()/find_package() relationship: instead of
calling find_package(... REQUIRED) when option is set, rely on optional
find package call and PackageName_FOUND variable.
3. Refactor handling options that result in simple preprocessor defines
(actually copy the snippet from libtorrent) so that everything is done
in a single function call.
4. Populate target properties in order to get rid of
include_directories() calls.
