[Development] Wrong resize event for QAbstractScrollArea derives

2013-10-11 Thread raven-worx Software
Hi,

a question out of curiosity:
In QAbstractScrollArea::viewportEvent() a resize event is passed to  
the base class implementation of the event handler. Whats the reason  
for doing this for a non input event?

I'm asking because, this actually causes that you receive a wrong  
resize event for your scroll area widget, which actually didn't resize  
at all.

I hope i haven't overseen something?

You can find this code in Qt4 and still in Qt5.

thanks.

i know that is like this - as i already stated ;)
I was asking if there is a special reason for doing this for a event  
which is not an input event, because you just receive the wrong size  
in the event...
Which of course makes sense for input event derivations but not for  
the resize event.

[Development] QtWebkit to vcxproj

2016-05-25 Thread raven-worx Software

Hi,

i am trying to create a vcxproj-Project of the QtWebKit module.
For that i call "qmake -tp vc -r"
This results in error "Project ERROR: Strict subdir dependencies can  
only be used with subdirs template"

(https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-50099)

I can get rid of this error by commenting all lines which call  
addStrictSubdirOrderBetween() in the affected .pro files.


So far so good. I now have a solution which contains and successfully  
builds most QtWebKit projects.


The only projects i still have issues with are WTF, WebCore and  
JavaScriptCore.


WTF
--
Now when i call "qmake -tp vc WTF.pro" it returns without any output  
and it seems like it finished successfully. But no project is created  
and it silently fails.
Now when i call "qmake -tp vc WTF.pro -o WTF.vcxproj" instead i get  
several messages like:
"qtwebkit/Source/WTF/WTF.pri:16: 'use?' is not a recognized test  
function" messages


WebCore
-
calling "qmake -tp vc WebCore.pro -o WebCore.vcxproj" results in:

Info: creating cache file  
C:\Qt\Qt-5.x-git\qtwebkit\Source\WebCore\WebCore.vcxproj\.qmake.cache


Running configure tests...

Checking for fontconfig... QDir::mkpath: Empty or null file name
C:/Qt/Qt-5.x-git/qtbase/mkspecs/features/configure.prf:68: Cannot  
create directory .

Project ERROR: Aborting.



So my question is how can i create "Qt-ified" webkit core projects?


regards.

Re: [Development] QtWebkit to vcxproj

2016-05-25 Thread raven-worx Software



Which begs the question: Why?

I'm not claiming it's not possible. But building Qt itself within  
Visual Studio

Is not common, let alone Qt WebKit.

Kai


to integrate it into our "development ecosystem" and use the  
advantages of Visual Studio environment (visual debugging, central  
property sheets, central compiler optimizations, etc)

A lot of tiny things which add up.

i know. I had do to some fixing in the generated projects to make them  
compile.  But those generated vcxproj files were essential to get  
started with.


Now i have a Qt5 (almost all major modules) converted and compiling  
adn even running.
QtWebkit conversion also looks good so far. Only WTF, JavaScriptCore  
and WebCore modules are missing.


The webkit sources already come with vcxproj files of these 3 modules.  
Can i take those instead directly? Meaning are those just core modules  
of Webkit? Or do they need some special Qt configuration?

[Development] qmake vcxproj generator issue

2014-12-17 Thread raven-worx Software
Hi,

i am using the command "qmake -tp vc -r" to generate Visual Studio projects.
With Qt 5.3 and MSVC2008 this worked flawlessly.
But since Qt 5.4 can't be compiled with MSVC2008 anymore i switched to  
MSVC2013.
The command runs without errors and creates the .vcxproj files, so far  
so good.

Now the problem occurs in the QtCore project (probably also in others,  
but i am stuck here for now):

There are custom build steps generated for "qstring_compat.obj" and  
"qvector_msvc.obj". (Because they can't be compiled with precompiled  
headers).

Building the generated project results in an linker error for these 2  
files. That is because the command line for this custom build step is  
missing the compiler flags. This causes that the msvc linker tries  
then to link incompatible obj files. In detail it is trying to link  
'StaticRelease' binaries with 'DynamicDebug'/'DynamicRelease' binaries.

E.g. the command written to the project file looks like this:
cl -c $(CXXFLAGS)  tools\qstring_compat.cpp  
-Fo.obj\debug\qstring_compat.obj

Notice the $(CXXFLAGS). Which is actually a left-over from the qmake  
project generation process and wasn't substituted?! The $(CXXFLAGS) is  
interpreted by MSVC and expanded as "" since it is an unknown macro.

So the problem is that qmake doesn't expand the $(CXXFLAGS) with the  
same compiler flags used by the project to match all other object files.

Or is the fault on my side? Please let me know.

According to the issues i encountered during compilation with MSVC2008  
this isn't fully true:

In Qt 5.3.x:

.) MSVC 2008 is missing the C9x headers (stdint.h) which are mandatory  
to compile Webkit module. So i needed to provide them myself.

.) when configuring with "-developer-build" option some tests can't be  
compiled. This is because some intrinsics are only available from MSVC  
2010 onwards. I had to patch "qtbase\src\corelib\arch\qatomic_msvc.h"  
with:

# if _MSC_VER > 1500
#  define Q_ATOMIC_INT16_IS_SUPPORTED
# endif

In Qt 5.4.x:

.) WebEngine module can only be compiled with MSVC 2013. I understand  
that this dependency comes from Chromium itself, so no problem.

.) With Qt 5.4.0 the project libGLESv2 was upgraded with ANGLE 2.1  
sources. Which uses heavily the 'auto' keyword on the one hand and  
'std::unordered_map' on the other hand. From MSVC2010 onwards the  
'auto' keyword has a different meaning than in MSVC2008 (see  
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6k3ybftz%28v=vs.100%29.aspx).  
And the unordered_map is only contained in the std::tr1:: namespace in  
MSVC2008 and was moved to the std:: namespace only in later MSVC  
versions.
So you would need heavy source modifications to make this compile with  
MSVC2008.

This has just economic build and mostly convenience reasons to have Qt  
integrated into Visual Studio.

Guess i was lucky, but since the compilation worked like a charm until  
Qt 5.3 i assumed it was intended to work ;)
But i also noticed yesterday that MSVC2008 has no problem with the  
missing flags and successfully links the 'incompatible' obj files. But  
i have to admit i haven't tried to build an application with it  
afterwards. I can only say that the makefile generated Qt binaries  
work with MSVC2008 but not the ones created from the VCPROJ files  
though.

[Development] Errors in release mode only

2015-03-30 Thread raven-worx Software
Hi,

i get the following print outs to the console and absolutley have no clue why:

SHIMVIEW: ShimInfo(Complete)
QEventLoop: Cannot be used without QApplication
QObject::connect: Cannot connect (null)::aboutToQuit() to  
QNativeWifiEngine::closeHandle()

But this only happens in RELEASE MODE! DEBUG mode works fine and these  
print outs are not showing up.

I even get these print outs when my main() only returns 0, so no  
QApplication is instantiated meaning as soon as i link against Qt  
binaries.

Once the application starts up i also noticed that (queued) signals  
from other threads are not delivered anymore, which most probably  
involves the QEventLoop error message somehow. But on the other hand  
events from the OS are delivered.

I am using:
QtCreator 3.3.1, MSVC2012, Qt 5.4.1

Re: [Development] Errors in release mode only

2015-03-30 Thread raven-worx Software
As i said, i get it even when i just compile this piece of code and  
link to Qt binaries (core, gui, widgets, network) and only in release:

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
 QApplication app(argc, argv);
 return app.exec();
}

I guess this is only an issue on Windows.

Re: [Development] Errors in release mode only

2015-04-02 Thread raven-worx Software

i found what caused the issue:

I accidentally also linked some other code to the application in which  
a static initialization of a QNetworkAccessManger happened.
This also explains the different behavior between release and debug mode.
