* revert to building qmake with qconfig.cppOswald Buddenhagen2017-01-061-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | turns out that just appending builtin-qt.conf isn't a good idea: executable-editing tools (objcopy, prelink, etc.) will happily drop the "attachment". a safe method would be adding a proper section to the executable, but there doesn't appear to be an objcopy equivalent in msvc, and using entirely different methods of embedding the file with different toolchains seems like a rather bad idea. so instead go back to the old method of building qmake with a generated qconfig.cpp. of course, as said file is now created by qmake itself, we have to compile qlibraryinfo.cpp a second time, and link a second qmake executable.

* move generation of qconfig.cpp (and qt.conf) to qmake-based configureOswald Buddenhagen2016-12-131-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | this moves us another step towards the "outer" configure doing just minimal bootstrapping of qmake. a challenge here was that so far, qmake itself needed qconfig.cpp. this was replaced by usage of a qt.conf file instead of compiled-in values. however, to make the executable still self-contained, that qt.conf is embedded into it (by simple appending of a fixed signature and the text file). the qmake with the embedded qt.conf is not used for the qt build itself, which instead relies on the qt.conf in bin/ as before. however, due to the missing built-in values, this file now needs to contain more information than before. but except for a minimal version that is needed to start up qmake/configure at all, that file is now also generated with qmake. as some of the newly set up properties are subsequently used by configure itself, qmake gains a (deliberately undocumented) function to reload the qt.conf after it's fully populated. unlike the old implementations, this one doesn't emit redundant qt.conf entries which match the hard-coded fallbacks. omitting them leads to leaner files which are more comprehensible.

* Modularize the new configure system (infrastructure part)Lars Knoll2016-09-101-7/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change implements the required infrastructure to modularize the new configuration system. This requires a hierarchy of configuration files, both for handling multiple repositories and for individual modules inside the same repository. When configuring, they all need to get loaded first, as command line processing needs to know about all possible command line options. When the command line has been processed, the individual configuration files need to get processed one after the other and independently from each other. Configure is now automatically invoked when building the a project tree's "root" project; this works with both modular and top-level builds of Qt (the latter with an according change in the super repo). As an immediate consequence, the -skip option moves to the super repo with a different implementation, as configuration is now done after the repo list is determined. The option belongs there anyway. This commit also adds an optional testDir entry to the json file. Like this, we can still have all configure tests in qtbase/config.tests and the configuration file in, e.g., corelib can reference those. The files section can now be left out as long as a 'module' entry is present, specifying the module name. The names of the files to generate can then be deduced from that name. We still need to be able to specify names directly for the global configuration files. qtConfig() now also queries features which are module-specific. As it is sometimes necessary to query the configuration of modules which should not be actually linked (and cannot in the case of subdirs projects), the new variable QT_FOR_CONFIG which allows specifying configuration-only dependencies is introduced.

* Enable precompiled headers on iOS, tvOS, watchOSJake Petroules2016-09-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The actual blocker for precompiled headers is not the iOS/tvOS/watchOS platforms, but the way qmake handled multiple-architecture builds on Apple platforms. This patch allows multi-arch builds to be performed while using precompiled headers. Since df91ef3d6c55692a0236f67b6c6b134a3bf84098 (April 2009), Clang has had support for PCH files in the driver, which allows to use the -include flag to automatically translate to -include-pch. We can then take advantage of the fact that the -include option is allowed to not be separate from its argument, which lets us take advantage of -Xarch to specify a per-architecture precompiled header file. This is done through some magic in the qmake Makefile generator which "multiplexes" the PCH creation rule across multiple architectures and replaces a series of tokens with the proper precompiled header paths and architecture flags at usage point.

* replace mechanism to override variables from the mkspecsOswald Buddenhagen2016-08-181-1/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | it is sometimes desirable to override values from the mkspec without modifying (or wrapping) the spec itself. linux distributors do this on a regular basis. so far, we'd pick up CFLAGS, etc. from the environment, in a somewhat autoconf-like fashion. however, over time, this approach proved problematic: the concept doesn't mix particularly well with mkspecs to start with, is unexpected (and therefore causes frustration), and doesn't mix well with cross-building (at least the way it was realized). ironically, it was implemented this way (quite a while ago) upon my explicit request ... the new mechanism uses explicit variable manipulations on the configure command line, just like qmake itself understands. as it happens, this is again quite similar to autoconf-generated configure scripts. however, this time around we don't pretend to be actually autoconf-like, so we also don't try to map any variable names (some of which have different semantics anyway). this commit also eliminates the last use of the QMakeVar() function, so delete it and the underlying infrastructure.
