Of course, projects that use Carbon functions would need to link the framework, but it would appear that the other apps don't have that requirement. No great surprises there: If you project does not use Carbon, then you don't need to link to it. If the project does use Carbon, it must be included in linking. That said, if you're linking a project with QtGui, which in turn links with Carbon, then it won't hurt to also link the project with Carbon too. None of the library description files (.la, .prl, .pc) include Carbon in their dependency for linking with QtGui ... so, I'm not sure where the dependency is coming from. Anyway, hope this helps. - MLD ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
qt4-mac : still dependent on Carbon.framework?
I see that Qt4-mac links against Carbon.framework (in QtGui.dylib) and even exports the dependency via qmake. But the times I tried to link without -framework Carbon everything worked just fine. Is this dependency still valid, and is it really one that needs to be promoted from the Qt frameworks to clients using said frameworks (rather than just being a Qt internal dependency satisfied as long as the Qt frameworks are linked against Carbon)?

Re: qt4-mac : still dependent on Carbon.framework?
Hi René - Are you saying that you removed the linking with -framework Carbon from when QtGui is linked and that worked? Or, are you talking about for some project that's using QtGui via QMake, for which removing the linking with Carbon worked? I've never tried the former, and the latter could easily work depending on the project. - MLD On Sun, Mar 16, 2014, at 09:02 AM, René J.V.
