Expanding on my previous benchmarks regarding embedding libraries in app
bundles, see the following script... on my old, slow machine I've observed it
completing in < 10 seconds to copy both debug and release versions of the
libraries listed below. Only two processes need to be forked, too. One instance
of rsync for libraries/frameworks and another instance for plugins.
Incremental builds (the more important part) are virtually instantaneous (< 100
ms).
Might be worth it to consider using rsync to implement this in qmake/qbs. Ossi
mentioned QMAKE_BUNDLE_DATA but I'm not sure if there's a good way to exclude
headers and such using that. Might be worth it to have a dedicated variable for
bundled libraries (and plugins?), plus we get rsync's performance
optimizations. Then we don't need macdeployqt, or at least most of it. :)
#!/bin/sh
if [ "$1" != "debug" ] ; then
DEBUG=--exclude\ '*_debug'
fi
if [ -z "$QT_INSTALL_LIBS" ] ; then
QT_INSTALL_LIBS=/Library/Frameworks
fi
# rsync is sensitive to trailing slashes
# the source directories MUST have them
rsync -a \
--exclude '.DS_Store' \
--exclude 'Headers' \
--exclude '*.prl' \
--exclude '*.dSYM' \
