Or a simple stub that launches the other executable with the same arguments.

Besides, doesn't Windows now have symlinks?

Noticed the same just now. I don’t see any install targets for the host tools 
and the code doesn’t seem to add any for the individual tools (there’s no 
install_moc, for instance), so:

[Development] download.qt.io still missing some files?

2021-02-19 Thread Martin Storsjö

Hi,

I see that most of what used to be on download.qt.io has been reinstated. 
Is there still some progress ongoing in restoring files, or is the 
restoration considered complete?


E.g. under https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/4.8/, there's only 4.8.0 up 
to 4.8.4, but missing 4.8.5, 4.8.6 and 4.8.7. If these are missing, what 
other bits are randomly missing elsewhere?

[Development] How to build and install only host_tools ?

2021-02-19 Thread Bogdan Vatra via Development
Hi,

  I'm trying to build and install *only* host_tools and reuse them for all my 
cross platform compilation builds. I can build it with `ninja host_tools` but 
I could not found any `host_tools_install` or `install_host_tools` targets, 
and if I'm trying to install it with `ninja install` it will build and install 
everything not only host_tools. 

Am I missing something? Or there is no way to build and install only 
host_tools?

Cheers,
BogDan.

Yea that would work, but what about Windows that doesn't really have
symlinks? Would you install copies of the executables under both names?

With everywhere I meant including the SDK from TQtC.
