There has been recent discussions about deploying Qt applications,
especially about Qt plugins. To address that issue, some new support
has been added for plugins to FindQt4.cmake and I would enjoy feedback
from any testers.
Specifically:
- support for static plugins
If you are using a static build of Qt, and your code has
Q_IMPORT_PLUGIN() calls. You now have find_library() calls done for you
to link with those static Qt plugins. For example, you can use
QT_QGIF_LIBRARY to link with the qgif static plugin.
- support for dynamic plugins
Some find_library() calls are done for these plugins, but people may
generally not use these new variables. Instead some new functions are
added: qt4_deploy_plugin(), qt4_deploy_plugin_group(),
qt4_deploy_default_plugins().
You may use it like so:
include(CPack)
install(TARGETS testqt DESTINATION bin)
qt4_deploy_default_plugins(bin/plugins)
.... other install stuff for bundle utilities.
Now, if the BundleUtilities stuff could be simpler somehow...
Thanks,
Clint
