+\title Qt Android Manifest File Configuration
+\ingroup androidplatform
+\brief Provides details on the AndroidManifest.xml configuration.
+\previouspage android-openssl-support.html
+\nextpage android-services.html
+
+The Android Manifest is an XML file necessary for any Android app. It contains
+app configuration for different settings and features that the app use, as well
+as details on the app itself, such as, package name, app name, version, etc.
+Permissions and hardware features can also be set from the manifest.
+
+Qt for Android maintains a version of \c {AndroidManifest.xml} with default
+configuration that include features, permissions and other configuration
+used by the build system which are needed for building and running Qt apps
+on Android.
+
+\section1 Qt Project to Manifest Configuration
+
+Qt defines some \l {Android: App Manifest <meta-data>}{meta-data} that is passed
+from the build systems and to \l {Deploying an Application on Android}{androiddeployqt}
+which populates the manifest with the correct values without explicitly setting
+these in the manifest file. Such \l {Android: App Manifest <meta-data>}{meta-data}
+is assigned a value in the form \c {"-- %%INSERT_VALUE%% --"}, for example:
+
+\badcode
+<manifest ...
+ android:versionCode="-- %%INSERT_VERSION_CODE%% --"
+ ...
+</manifest>
+\endcode
+
+This would be populated with the version code that is set in, for example,
+\c CMake.
+
+\section1 Qt Default Configuration
+
+Qt sets the following manifest configuration by default:
+
+\table
+\header
+ \li Section
+ \li Option
+ \li Description
+\row
+ \li {1, 5} \l {Android: App Manifest <manifest>}{<manifest>}
+ \li package
+ \li Sets the package name. The default value is \c {org.qtproject.example.app_name}.
+\row
+ \li \c {android:installLocation}
+ \li Sets the app's installation location, whether internal or external storage.
+ The default value is \c auto.
+\row
+ \li android:versionCode
+ \li Sets the internal version code. Populated from \c ANDROID_VERSION_CODE (qmake)
+ and \c QT_ANDROID_VERSION_CODE (CMake). The default value is \c 1.
+\row
+ \li android:versionName
+ \li Sets the public version name. Populated from \c ANDROID_VERSION_NAME (qmake)
+ and \c QT_ANDROID_VERSION_NAME (CMake). The default value is \c {1.0}.
+\row
+ \li \c {<supports-screens>}
+ \li Sets the screen sizes that the app supports,
+ default values are \c anyDensity, \c largeScreens,
+ \c normalScreens, and \c smallScreens.
+\row
+ \li {1, 6} \l {Android: App Manifest <application>}{<application>}
+ \li android:name
+ \li The application class name. Default value is
+ \c {org.qtproject.qt.android.bindings.QtApplication}.
+\row
+ \li android:label
+ \li The application name label. Default value is the Qt project's target name.
+\row
+ \li android:hardwareAccelerated
+ \li Sets hardware acceleration preference. The default value is \c true.
+\row
+ \li android:requestLegacyExternalStorage
+ \li Whether to use Android scoped storage. The default value is \c true.
+\row
+ \li android:allowBackup
+ \li Whether to allow the application to participate in the backup and restore
+ infrastructure. If this is set to \c false, no backup or restore of the
+ application will ever be performed. The default value is \c true.
+\row
+ \li android:fullBackupOnly
+ \li Whether or not to use Auto Backup on devices where it is available.
+ The default value is \c false.
+\row
+ \li {1, 6} \l {Android: App Manifest <activity>}{<activity>}
+ \li android:name
+ \li The activity class name. The default value is \c {org.qtproject.qt.android.bindings.QtActivity}.
+\row
+ \li android:configChanges
+ \li Lists configuration changes that the activity handles. Default value is
+ \c orientation, \c uiMode, \c screenLayout, \c screenSize,
+ \c smallestScreenSize, \c layoutDirection, \c locale, \c fontScale,
+ \c keyboard, \c keyboardHidden, \c navigation, \c mcc, \c mnc, \c density.
+\row
+ \li android:launchMode
+ \li The method used to launch the activity. The default value is \c singleTop.
+\row
+ \li android:screenOrientation
+ \li The orientation of the activity's display on the device. The default value is \c unspecified.
+\row
+ \li <intent-filter>
+ \li Specifies the types of intents that the activity can respond to. Default value is
+ \badcode
+ <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
+ <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
+ \endcode
+\row
+ \li android:exported
+ \li Sets whether the activity can be launched by components of other applications.
+ The default value is \c true.
+\endtable
+
+\section1 Qt Specific Meta-data
+
+In addition to the default manifest configuration that Qt sets, Qt defines
+some meta-data that is valid for Qt apps only. Such meta-data is usually
+under the \c <activity> section in the form:
+
+\badcode
+<meta-data
+ android:name="meta-data-name"
+ android:value="meta-data-value" />
+\endcode
+
+The following is a list of such meta-data defined by Qt:
+
+\table
+\header
+ \li Meta-data Name
+ \li Description
+\row
+ \li android.app.lib_name \target android.app.lib_name
+ \li The filename of the native C++ library that is used by the activity.
+ \note This attribute is mandatory and shouldn't be removed.
+ Default value is the Qt project's target name.
+\row
+ \li android.app.extract_android_style
+ \li The method used to extract the native Android Style information.
+ For more information, see \l {Style Extraction}.
+ The default value is \c minimal.
+\row
+ \li android.app.background_running \target android.app.background_running
+ \li Sets whether the app keeps running tasks in the background.
+ Setting this to \c true is the equivalent of setting the environment
+ variable \c QT_BLOCK_EVENT_LOOPS_WHEN_SUSPENDED to \c 0.
+ The default value is \c false.
+
+ \warning Setting this to \c true may cause unexpected crash if the
+ application tries to draw after \l {QGuiApplication::applicationStateChanged()}
+ signal is sent with a \l {Qt::ApplicationSuspended} state.
+\row
+ \li android.app.arguments \target android.app.arguments
+ \li Sets a list of arguments to pass to the app \c {"arg1 arg2"}.
+ Populated from \c ANDROID_APPLICATION_ARGUMENTS (qmake) and
+ \c QT_ANDROID_APPLICATION_ARGUMENTS (CMake).
+ Default value is not set.
+\row
+ \li android.app.splash_screen_drawable_portrait
+ \li Sets a drawable for a splash screen specific to portrait mode.
+ For example: \c {android:resource="@drawable/splash_portrait"}.
+ Default value is not set.
+\row
+ \li android.app.splash_screen_drawable_landscape
+ \li Sets a drawable for a splash screen specific to landscape mode.
+ For example: \c {android:resource="@drawable/splash_landscape"}.
+ Default value is not set.
+\row
+ \li android.app.splash_screen_drawable
+ \li Sets a drawable for a splash screen at the start of the app.
+ \note Orientation specific splash screens are checked first,
+ if not set, this is used instead.
+ For example: \c {android:resource="@drawable/splash"}.
+ Default value is not set.
+\row
+ \li android.app.splash_screen_sticky
+ \li Sets whether the splash screen stays visible until explicitly hidden
+ by the app.
+ For more information, see
+ \l {QNativeInterface::}{QAndroidApplication::hideSplashScreen()}.
+\row
+ \li android.app.trace_location
+ \li Specifies a location on device where the application can save tracing files.
+ For example: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/<app_package_name>/files/.
+ This is needed when using Common Trace Format (CTF) tracing backend.
+ \note The application needs storage permission for the location.
+ Default: not set.
+\endtable
+
+\section2 Application Specific Meta-data
+
+Some meta-data attributes are application-wide, and should be placed under
+the \c <application> section:
+
+\table
+\header
+ \li Meta-data Name
+ \li Description
+\row
+ \li android.app.system_libs_prefix \target android.app.system_libs_prefix
+ \li Specifies a custom system library path to use for library loading lookup.
+ This is necessary when using Qt libraries installed outside an app's
+ default native (JNI) library directory.
+ The default value is \c {/system/lib/}.
+\endtable
+
+\section2 Meta-data in Services
+
+Some meta-data attributes can also be used in \l {Android Services}{Services}.
+The main ones are:
+
+\list
+ \li \l {android.app.lib_name}
+ \li \l {android.app.background_running}
+ \li \l {android.app.arguments}
+\endlist
+
+\section2 Qt Permissions and Features
+
+Different Qt modules might require some Android permissions or features to
+function properly, for example, Camera permission in \l {QtMultimedia}.
+l{The androiddeployqt Tool} takes care of including such requirements into the
+Android manifest during the build. Qt defines the following lines into the
+manifest, which they get replaced by
+the actual values:
+
+\badcode
+<manifest ...
+ <!-- %%INSERT_PERMISSIONS -->
+ <!-- %%INSERT_FEATURES -->
+ ...
+</manifest>
+\endcode
+
+\note If those lines are removed from the project manifest, Qt won't be
+able to include the correct permissions. So some functionalities
+might not work properly.
+
+\section2 Style Extraction
+
+Qt uses different methods to determine how Qt Widgets and Qt Quick Controls
+should be styled:
+
+\list
+ \li \c default or \c full: when using Qt Widgets or Qt Quick Controls 1.
+ \note This method uses some Android non-SDK interfaces, that are being
+ restricted and removed by Google starting from Android 9.0 (API 28).
+ For that reason, this is not recommended for Android 9.0 or greater.
+ \li \c minimal: when using Qt Quick Controls 2 and no Qt Widgets or Qt Quick
+ Controls 1. This is faster than using the default or full options.
+ \li \c none: no style extraction.
+\endlist
+
+\section1 Qt Manifest before 6.2 Release
+
+Versions of Qt earlier than 6.2 used to have an additional set of meta-data
+defined by Qt. These attributes used to manage dependencies and some were
+used by the discontinued \c Ministro service. With Qt 6.2, they should be removed.
+Here is a list of these attributes:
+
+\list
+ \li android.app.qt_sources_resource_id
+ \li android.app.repository
+ \li android.app.bundled_libs_resource_id
+ \li android.app.bundle_local_qt_libs
+ \li android.app.use_local_qt_libs
+ \li android.app.libs_prefix
+ \li android.app.load_local_libs_resource_id
+ \li android.app.load_local_jars
+ \li android.app.static_init_classes
+ \li android.app.qt_libs_resource_id
+ \li android.app.ministro_not_found_msg
+ \li android.app.ministro_needed_msg
+ \li android.app.fatal_error_msg
+\endlist
+

+\l{Android: App Manifest}{Android App Manifest}.
