* Use qmlRegisterModuleImport() to register stylesMitch Curtis2020-08-261-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch completes the cumulative work done in previous patches. - Uses qmlRegisterModuleImport() to register styles. This has some added requirements: - Each style must now be a QML module -- that is, it must have a qmldir file. - As a result of the above, the module must be available within the QML import path in order to be found. - The various forms of accepted style names have been reduced down to one ("Material", "MyStyle", etc). See below for an explanation of why. - The following API in QQuickStyle is removed: addStylePath(), availableStyles(), path(), stylePathList(). These no longer make sense now that we reuse the existing QML import system. - Adds the tst_qquickstyleselector auto test back as "styleimports". qmlRegisterModuleImport() vs resolvedUrl() Previously we would use QQuickStyleSelector to select individual QML files based on which style was set. We'd do this once when QtQuick.Controls was first imported. With Qt 6, and the requirement that each style be a proper QML module, qmlRegisterModuleImport() was introduced. This allows us to "link" one import with another. For an example of what this looks like in practice, suppose the style was set to "MyStyle", and the fallback to "Material". The "QtQuick.Controls" import will be linked to "MyStyle", "MyStyle" to "QtQuick.Controls.Material", and as a final fallback (for controls like Action which only the Default style implements), "QtQuick.Controls.Material" to "QtQuick.Controls.Default". This is the same behavior as in Qt 5 (see qquickstyleselector.cpp): // 1) requested style (e.g. "MyStyle", included in d->selectors) // 2) fallback style (e.g. "Material", included in d->selectors) // 3) default style (empty selector, not in d->selectors) This is a necessary step to enable compilation of QML to C++. Reducing the set of accepted style names The problem In QtQuickControls2Plugin() we need to call QQuickStylePrivate::init(baseUrl()) in order to detect if the style is a custom style in QQuickStyleSpec::resolve() (by checking if the style path starts with the base URL). In Qt 5, init() is called in QtQuickControls2Plugin::registerTypes(), but in Qt 6 that's too late, because we need to call qmlRegisterModuleImport() in the constructor. qmlRegisterModuleImport() itself requires the style to have already been set in order to create the correct import URI ("QtQuick.Controls.X" for built-in styles, "MyCustomStyle" for custom styles). The solution By reducing the valid forms for style names down to one: ./myapp -style MyStyle we solve the problem of needing baseUrl() to determine if the style is a custom style or not, but needing to call it too early (since we now call qmlRegisterModuleImport() in QtQuickControls2Plugin(), which itself requires the style to have already been set). baseUrl() can't have been set before the constructor is finished. All of the various forms for _setting_ a style are still valid; environment variables, qtquickcontrols2.conf, etc. [ChangeLog][Important Behavior Changes] Custom styles must now have a qmldir that lists the files that the style implements. For example, for a style that only implements Button: --- module MyStyle Button 1.0 Button.qml --- In addition, there is now only one valid, case-sensitive form for style names: "Material", "MyStyle", etc. These changes are done to help enable the compilation of QML code to C++, as well as improve tooling capabilities. [ChangeLog][Important Behavior Changes] The following API was removed: - QQuickStyle::addStylePath() - QQuickStyle::availableStyles() - QQuickStyle::path() - QQuickStyle::stylePathList() - QT_QUICK_CONTROLS_STYLE_PATH This API is no longer necessary and/or able to be provided now that styles are treated as regular QML modules.

* QQuickStyle: add API for managing style pathsJ-P Nurmi2018-03-161-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to be able to use/refer to/select styles by name: - ./myapp -style Glossy - :/qtquickcontrols2.conf: [Controls] Style=Glossy - QT_QUICK_CONTROLS_STYLE=Glossy ./myapp the style needs to be available in a place where QQC2 can find it by the given name. Normally, QQC2 scans for available styles in the QT_INSTALL_QML/QtQuick/Controls.2/ directory, where all the built-in styles reside. However, 3rd party styles may want to install styles into their own namespace, especially if they offer style-specific API. If a style is installed elsewhere, QQC2 needs to be made aware of the style path to make it possible to locate the style. Previously, the QT_QUICK_CONTROLS_STYLE_PATH environment variable was the only way. This adds proper C++ API, inspired by QQmlEngine's importPathList and pluginPathList, to manage QQC2 style paths. [ChangeLog][Controls][QQuickStyle] Added stylePathList() and addStylePath() methods for managing the list of directories where Qt Quick Controls 2 searches for available styles.

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | This allows us to introduce platform-specific styles, such as the iOS style, and make them appear correctly in the Gallery example so that we don't have to hard-code the lists separately for different platforms. [ChangeLog][Controls][QQuickStyle] Added availableStyles() method that returns the list of available built-in styles.

* Let specifying the fallback style for custom stylesJ-P Nurmi2016-10-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For example, you can call QQuickStyle::setStyle(":/mycontrols") and QQuickStyle::setFallbackStyle("Material") to select a custom style so that the missing files will fallback to the Material style. Notice that the Material and Universal styles do not contain all files. For example, the non-visual Control.qml, Container.qml are not duplicated. For these, we must fallback to the Default style that is guaranteed to contain them all. [ChangeLog][Controls] Added support for specifying the fallback style for custom styles via :/qtquickcontrols2.conf, QT_QUICK_CONTROLS_FALLBACK_STYLE or QQuickStyle::setFallbackStyle().
