Hi, I have been investigating some weird build failures on build.kde.org yesterday:
http://build.kde.org/job/kde-workspace_master_qt5/1432/console (error is at 12:04:37) I found out this is a dependency issue: the new json system should run commands in this order (commands are simplified): desktoptojson \ plasma-containmentactions-contextmenu.desktop \ plasma-containmentactions-contextmenu.json moc menu.cpp -o menu.moc g++ menu.cpp -o menu.o The kservice framework provides a macro to call desktoptojson: kservice_desktop_to_json. The problem right now is that the macro does not define a dependency to express that the json file should be generated before moc is run. I put together a new test for kservice to reproduce this problem, see attached patch. It builds successfully with `make -j1` in the test dir, but I am able to reproduce the build failure with `make -j4`. (Note that you must manually rm the .json file from the build dir to reproduce it over and over: `make clean` does not remove it) I tried to express the missing dependency using various mixes of OBJECT_DEPENDS, but I can't find a way to say: "this target must be built before moc". Do you have any advice?
