You can use static linking for command-line applications, or use AppImage
where artifact is just a single executable file which could be put anywhere in 
$PATH

All those run-time extracted application container formats might be nice
solutions for GUI applications which is apparently the main target of Qt.
But my observation is that they perform rather poorly when being used for
command line applications or a combination of both.

Well, that's easily solved. The "tool" doesn't need to do everything on a
single invocation which leaves enough room for custom steps.

However, I do see the point of using different tools for that purpose. Yet
it would be convenient and time-saving to have everything under the same
roof within a common framework and good reference documentation :)

Funnily enough that would be a goal when I were to develop an

The only possible way to add package to the official Debian repositories is

there is no possible software tool which will make your package compliant to

Note that you need to actually test these packages, otherwise they may be
broken because of dependencies. While RPM has a way to provide meaningful
cross-distibution packages, .deb is inherently tied to particular version of
Debian or Ubuntu.

In practise you won't provide (and surely won't check) .whatever, so these 
people
will need to unpack .deb or .rpm as archives to proceed

Also, installing packages in "native" format usually requires root privileges, 
while
QtIFW or AppImage don't. You also can't have a portable application running from
flash drive with native packages.

You may need to do custom steps on artifacts produced by windeployqt before
packing them, so it's better to have separate tools for "bundling" and creation
of actual packages.

Thanks for replying anyway. Interesting.

I was looking for a (semi-)open and maintainable CI solution that I could
propose for Qbs. Not using gerrit is not an option. But the Qt Company seems
to lack of an easy-to-use CI solution for this kind of project and the
current amount of contributors.

Blessed be those who have a "package maintainer". I don'ẗ think it's that
easy. If I would want to bring my software product into the official
distribution repositories, maybe and of course every open source project
should aim for it. But that's quite some effort and sometimes even
impossible. I would be interested to know how easy it is to release a
Qt-based application with a bleeding edge Qt version (or with a patched one)
to the official Debian repositories.

And if I had a proprietary product and want to make updating as convenient
as possible for my customers?

Nothing stops me from publishing a self-containing .deb, .rpm, .whatever on
my website. If there was a one stop shop tool that produces a collection
like this with very little effort: https://speedcrunch.org/download.html I
would be sold. Maybe even in combination with setting up my own package

I, as a person, think that a "deployment tool for Linux" is 
something that spits out packages in half a dozen "native"
distribution package formats.

Collecting "resources that the application uses (like [...]

In what sense can't "milliseconds since epoch" values be shared ?
Note that they're always time since 1970-01-01 00:00 UTC, regardless of
which time-spec your QDateTime is using.

(If you dig the milliseconds from epoch value out of the guts of a
QDateTime, that's related to an origin with the same offset from UTC as
the QDateTime's spec currently uses; but you shouldn't be doing that.
Use QDateTime's methods; {to,from}MSecsSinceEpoch(), which both refer to
the UTC epoch.)

> The defaults (local time w. timezone conversion) are perhaps more

The "plain C time since epoch" is also referred to UTC, so (aside from a
factor of 1000) is no better or worse than our "milliseconds since
epoch" (aside from the range of date-times expressible being narrower,
for a given integral type; but we use a 64-bit type, which leaves an
acceptably wide range).

We're stuck with the defaults we have (thanks to binary and source
compatibility promises), but you can over-ride them easily enough.  Just
pass Qt::UTC as third argument to the QDateTime constructor and you've
got what you want.  Or map the QDateTime you've got through
.toTimeSpec(Qt::UTC) to put it in the standard form.  Or just ask for its
.toMSecsSinceEpoch() to reduce it to a simple number, regardless of its
spec; and you can compare these, from different-spec QDateTime values.
Then again, you can just compare the QDateTime values; they'll sort out
their difference in offset if they need to.

As for the documentation, if you can see ways to improve it, please give
us patches or file bug reports that explain clearly what's confusing
you,

Eddy.

[Development] Requesting a repository for Alexa integration

2019-04-10 Thread Minenko, Vladimir
Hi,

I would like to request for a new repository:

Name of the repository: qt-labs/qtalexa.git
Description: A environment enabling a use of Alexa an Qt based UI systems.
Responsible person: Vladimir Minenko
Gerrit user/email: vladimir.mine...@pelagicore.com

We developed an initial version of integration of Amazon Alexa in Qt-based UI. 
It can currently visualize selected cards (known as "Display Cards") as well as 
use Custom Skills to post control command to a system using Qt as UI framework.

The current implementation is fully functional and was already used in a 
joint-development prototype with a customer. The mid- to long-term intention is 
to create a new extension for Qt which would enable using of a voice assistance 
in Qt based applications and systems. The code will be licensed under (L)GLPv3 
and commercial licenses.

We fell into the same QDateTime trap recently.  The documentation on QDateTime 
is perhaps a bit too obscure and/or does not sufficiently highlight possible 
pitfalls?   

It might be good to highlight, for instance, that MSecsSinceEpoch is not 
share-able between users in different timezones unless QDateTime is 
instantiated with a timespec of Qt::UTC (which is not the default).

The defaults (local time w. timezone conversion) are perhaps more likely to 
lead to error than the plain C time since epoch with no hours being 
added/subtracted.

Great! I created a suggestion there:

https://github.com/linuxdeploy/linuxdeploy/issues/73

Though I'm honestly not sure what the practical differences between these two 
are, especially for the average user who just wants to simply deploy their 
application. I've only used linuxdeployqt myself.

Re: [Development] A deployment tool for Linux

2019-04-10 Thread Khuram Ali via Development
Hi, 
I think, it is a good idea to have an official deployment tool as we have for 
windows. linuxdeployqt works but as mentioned earlier slower and older. The 
things can get a bit better. 
Regards,Khuram Ali

Yeah I noticed that too.. thought it was a bit odd considering that file 
operations are usually very quick compared to Windows, whereas windeployqt is 
actually faster.

Hi,

  Personally I think it's a great idea. I used linuxdeployqt myself and it 
worked. The only problem I saw it was the speed, it takes quite a lot to 
complete (e.g. it took a few minutes, while androiddelopqt takes less than 10 
seconds). But witl some love I'm pretty sure it can be improved a lot.

Cheers,
BogDan.

[Development] A deployment tool for Linux

2019-04-10 Thread Mitch Curtis
What do people think about having a deployment tool for Linux? There is an 
existing community tool based on macdeployqt:

https://github.com/probonopd/linuxdeployqt/

The author has considered the idea in the past:

https://github.com/probonopd/linuxdeployqt/issues/84

A Jira suggestion to track it:

It's an internal Gitlab instance for The Qt Company. It's mostly a place for
people to put small things that don't belong anywhere in Gerrit and are not
worth creating a repo there. (Or not yet in the case of personal prototypes.)

It's not available to external people.

No. Big enough projects (even internal ones) get Gerrit repositories.

> - Does it offer gitlab CI?

Since its company-internal, the answer likely doesn't matter to you. But it
doesn't have CI. If a repository is worth having CI for, it should go to Gerrit.
