* CMake: Fix handling of CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH and CMAKE_PREFIX_PATHAlexandru Croitor2020-07-241-5/+12

Before the host artifact reuse change, the host tools were found successfully. The difference that caused the issue is that the target install prefix was a direct subfolder of the host prefix. host - /home/qt/work/qt/install target - /home/qt/work/qt/install/target Before the host reuse change the install prefixes were as follows host - /home/qt/work/qt/install/host target - /home/qt/work/qt/install/target While looking for the Qt6CoreTools package, we temporarily set CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH and CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to contain first '/home/qt/work/qt/install' and then '/home/qt/work/qt/install/target'. CMake then reroots the CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH values onto values in CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH, making an MxN list of prefixes to search. Rerooting essentially means concatenating 2 paths, unless the considered prefix is a subfolder of the root path. What happened was that the first considered value was '/home/qt/work/qt/install/home/qt/work/qt/install', a non-existent location that gets discarded. The second considered value was '/home/qt/work/qt/install/target. The second value is the result of seeing that '/home/qt/work/qt/install/target' is a subfolder of '/home/qt/work/qt/install' and thus the root path is stripped. All of this is done in cmFindPackageCommand::FindConfig() -> cmFindCommon::RerootPaths. The behavior above caused the target tools be found instead of the host ones. Before the host reuse change, both of the initial constructed prefixes were discared due to them not existing, e.g. '/home/qt/work/qt/install/target/home/qt/work/qt/install/target' and '/home/qt/work/qt/install/host/home/qt/work/qt/install/host' One of the later prefixes combined CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH == '/home/qt/work/qt/install/host' + CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH == '/' resulting in '/home/qt/work/qt/install/host/' and this accidentally found the host tools package. We actually stumbled upon this issue a while ago when implementing Qt 5.14 Android CMake support in 52c799ed4425076df4353c02950ea1444fe5f102 That commit message mentions the fix is to add a "lib/cmake" suffix to the PATHS option of find_package(). This would cause the subfolder => strip root behavior mentioned above. So finally the fix. First, make sure not to append QT_HOST_PATH in the toolchain file, there shouldn't be any need to do that, give that we temporarily set it when looking for Tools packages. Second, recreate the subdir scenario in the Qt toolchain file by setting CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH to the current (relocated) install prefix as usual, but also setting CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to a new value poining to the CMake directory. Aka '/home/alex/qt' and '/home/alex/qt/lib/cmake'. Third, when a QT_HOST_PATH is given, save 2 paths in the generated Qt toolchain: QT_HOST_PATH and QT_HOST_PATH_CMAKE_DIR. There are the host equivalents of the target ones above. Use these values when looking for host tools in Qt6CoreModuleDependencies.cmake, again facilitaing the subdir behavior. Note these are currently absolute paths and are not relocatable. We'll have to figure out if it's even possible to make the host path relocatable. Finally as a cleanup, look for the Qt6HostInfo package in QtSetup strictly in the given QT_HOST_PATH, so CMake doesn't accidentally find a system Qt package.

* CMake: Protect against Qt toolchain file recursive inclusionAlexandru Croitor2020-06-041-3/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Three different people have encountered the issue that calling calling qt-cmake on a project prints 1000 inclusion lines of the same qt toolchain file, and then CMake bails out saying can't find the CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM Ninja. This happened because people accidentally called qt-cmake to configure qtbase (instead of just cmake), which created a toolchain file that chainloads itself recursively. Error out when configuring qtbase, and when using the generated toolchain file in the case when it would try to include itself. The solution is to remove the qtbase CMakeCache.txt file, and configure qtbase again, so it generates a proper qt.toolchain.cmake file. If somebody feels enthusiastic, they can move the check into the qt-cmake and qt-cmake-private shell scripts, and error out before the qtbase/CMakeCache.txt is polluted with the wrong toolchain file. That is left for people that feel more comfortable with bash and batch scripting. Change-Id: If518c94791fe7c30731e6e462e347f26a5213c64 Reviewed-by: Joerg Bornemann <joerg.bornemann@qt.io>
* CMake: Make build system of installed Qt more relocatableAlexandru Croitor2020-05-071-2/+8

The following story inspired this change. If a user wants to build a Qt repo into a different install prefix than the usual Qt one, this will fail configuration because we look for various things like syncqt, qdoc, etc relative to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX, which will now point to a different location where none of the above tools are located. The intent for such a use case is to support building Qt packages with Conan, which sets a random install prefix when configuring a repo. The idea is to derive the qt prefix dynamically from the QtBuildInternals package location. Essentially it's a reverse relative path from the QtBuildInternalsConfig.cmake file to the install prefix that was specified when initially configuring qtbase. Once the dynamic prefix is computed (so we know where the possibly relocated Qt is), we can find tools like syncqt and qdoc. This is an initial attempt to support a use case like that. More design work will probably needed in case if tools / libs need to be found in a location different than the Qt install prefix (so support for multiple install prefixes / search paths). An example of such a case would be when building qtdeclarative and qtquickcontrols2 as Conan packages in one go. Most likely the qmltyperegistrar tool will be located in the random install prefix set by Conan, so building qtquickcontrols2 might fail due to not finding the tool in the original Qt install prefix. As to the implementation details, the change does the following: - Dynamically computes and sets the QT_BUILD_INTERNALS_RELOCATABLE_INSTALL_PREFIX variable when find_package()'ing QtBuildInternals. It's an absolute path pointing to where the relocated Qt is. - When building qtbase this variable is not yet available (due to QtBuildInternalsExtra not existing), in that case we set the variable to the absolute path of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX (but only for the initial qtbase configuration). - Remove QT_BUILD_INTERNALS_ORIGINAL_INSTALL_PREFIX which was used for standalone tests purposes. It's not needed now that we compute the location of the Qt prefix dynamically. - The Unixy qt-cmake and qt-cmake-private shell scripts now use a relative path to find the toolchain file we created. - The toolchain file also dynamically computes the location of the Qt packages, and adds them to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH. - A lot of existing CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX uses are replaced with QT_BUILD_INTERNALS_RELOCATABLE_INSTALL_PREFIX. This includes finding tool locations, mkspecs dir, path environment setup for tools, etc. - Some places still use CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH in the following cases - When determining paths while configuring qtbase (valid cases) - When I wasn't sure what the behavior should be, so I left them as-is (an example is documentation generation, do we want to install it into the random Conan prefix, or into the main prefix? Currently it installs in the random prefix). Note that relocating a Qt installation does not work for non-prefix / non-installed builds, due to hardcoded paths to include directories and libraries in generated FooTargets.cmake files.

* Generate a toolchain and convenience cmake wrapperSimon Hausmann2019-06-241-0/+18
This gets us a step into the direction of convenience that qmake offered: * QtBase is configured with a long command line (especially when cross-compiling) * Afterwards application developers (or other module builds) can just use qmake && make By generating a toolchain file we can capture vcpkg and toolchain chain-loading and a shell script can take care of providing the prefix path.
