The way of building the Qt +modules is fairly complex, since they need to both be built and installed in the proper order, if +configured prefix happens to be in a different location than the build directory of QtBase. + +It's not enough to do first a top-level 'make', then a 'make install', since modules would then no +be available to the consecutive modules. The build script also handles a situation where Jom +exposes a dependency bug with parallel builds, by doing a 'qmake -r' on each individual module as +part of each modules build process. + +If no modules to build are passed on the command-line, all the default modules will be built. + +=head1 OPTIONS + +=over + +=item B<-v> [n], B<--verbose> [n] + +Makes output more verbose. Level of verboseness optional (default: 1). + +=item B<-c> [n], B<--continue> [n] + +Ignore failed submodules, and continue building. Continue has levels (default: 1). The default +level will make the build script ignore any errors in a submodule, and continue to build the next +dependency. Level 2 means that the --keep-going option is also passed to make for each submodule. + +=item B<-j> [n], B<--jobs> [n] + +Sets the number of parallel builds. Number is optional, but providing no number indicates +Unlimited, which you most likely do not want. + +=item B<--force-qmake> + +Forces a 'qmake -r' on a module, even if the build script detects an already existing Makefile in +the module. + +=item B<-n> [n], B<--dry-run> [n] + +Does a dry-run, show which actions will be taken without actually performing them. Dry-run has +levels (default: 1). The default level only shows which commands this script will execute. Level 2 +will also do a dry-run on make, showing all the actions the build-script will result in. Level 2 +requires C<qmake -r> to run, so it is not completely "dry" in its purest sense, although nothing is +built. + +=back + +=head1 COPYRIGHT + +Copyright (C) 2012 Nokia Corporation and/or its subsidiary(-ies). +Contact: http://www.qt-project.org/ + +=head1 LICENSE + +This file is part of the utilities of the Qt Toolkit, and may be used under the terms of the GNU +Lesser General Public (LGPL 2.1), or the GNU General Public License (GPL 3.0) + +=cut + use Carp qw( confess ); use English qw( -no_match_vars ); use Getopt::Long qw( GetOptionsFromArray ); |
