* Introduce module providersChristian Kandeler2019-01-231-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a dependency is not found, we now search for a matching module provider that can generate one for us. We also provide a generic fall-back provider which uses pkg-config to locate the dependency (but could be extended to incorporate other methods in the future). This is the most important part of this change for practical purposes, as it makes hundreds of popular libraries available for use in qbs projects without users having to write any boilerplate code. In a future patch, a module provider could also be used to implement the functionality of the qtprofilesetup library, relieving users of the need to create a profile for building Qt applications. [ChangeLog] The Depends item now falls back to pkg-config to locate dependencies whose names do not correspond to a qbs module.

* Add support for job poolsChristian Kandeler2018-08-081-0/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commands can now be assigned to an arbitrary job pool and a limit for the number of concurrently running jobs in such pools can be provided in a number of ways: - via the build command line: qbs --job-limits linker:1 - via the settings: qbs config preferences.jobLimit.linker 1 - in a project file: JobLimit { jobPool: "linker"; jobCount: 1 } We provide two job pools ourselves with the cpp module: "compiler" and "linker".

* Get rid of the need for "import qbs"Joerg Bornemann2018-06-221-8/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | It is difficult to place why the "import qbs" statement is needed. What it does is providing the default imports like CppApplication. There's no advantage in having a project file without this base import, so we always import "qbs" implicitly now. [ChangeLog] Removed the need to add "import qbs" to project files.
