[Solved] Building QT 5.2 from GIT/stable branch
-
Hi All,
(This problem was solved, but has reappeared the last week or so. Currently, I can only use IOS builds by building in the source folder and create kit in QT Creator from there.)
I have fetched the latest QT source, and initialized repository without webkit. I would like to compile for Desktop, iPhone simulator and iPhone device. I do off course build in clean build folders.
I configure the iPhone device build as:
qtrepotools/bin/qt5_tool -c
./configure -xplatform macx-ios-clang -developer-build -confirm-license -opensource -nomake tests -prefix /Users/sverre/Tools/Qt/5.2.0/ios
make -j 6When I attempt to build , I get following error:
"The directory /Users/sverre/cpp/Qt/Qt-5.2/qt5/qtdeclarative/tools/qmljs does not contain an Xcode project."If I go to that folder and create the xcode project with qmake, I can complete the compile, but when I execute "make install", I get:
PhaseScriptExecution Project\ Copy .obj/qml.build/Debug-iphoneos/qml.build/Script-9C316F444A62BF296E3E1F25.sh
cd /Users/sverre/cpp/Qt/Qt-5.2/qt5/qtdeclarative/tools/qml
/bin/sh -c /Users/sverre/cpp/Qt/Qt-5.2/qt5/qtdeclarative/tools/qml/.obj/qml.build/Debug-iphoneos/qml.build/Script-9C316F444A62BF296E3E1F25.sh
cp: /Users/sverre/cpp/Qt/Qt-5.2/qt5/qtdeclarative/tools/qml/Debug-iphoneos/qml.app/qml.app/qml.app: directory causes a cycle
Command /bin/sh failed with exit code 1Has anyone seen this, and is there a quickfix so I can compile and install QT for the iPhone device ?
I have the same problem when compiling for iPhone simulator SDK
Builds for desktop compiles without problems.
I build on a Mac, OS X 10.9
Xcode 5.0.2
Build version 5A3005
OS X SDKs:
OS X 10.8 -sdk macosx10.8
OS X 10.9 -sdk macosx10.9iOS SDKs:
iOS 7.0 -sdk iphoneos7.0iOS Simulator SDKs:
Simulator - iOS 7.0 -sdk iphonesimulator7.0br,

Hi,
Does is also fails if you use this
@../qt5/configure -xplatform macx-ios-clang -developer-build -confirm-license -opensource -nomake tests@
from an out of source folder ?

Hi,
It fails the same way with missing qmljs xcode project, but by manually creating the qmljs.xcodeproj in the out of source folder, I can get it to compile. I will give it a go tomorrow and see, if I can deploy to my iPhone using the latest 5.2 stable branch.
thanks for the tip ;)

Hi,
updated qt5/stable branch to SHA fc6f18a589d54f4dc7a4f75131e61e29b8e8cb31 today, the problem has been fixed there.
So back to normal compiles, and things are really beginning to look good developing IOS apps with QT5 ;)
br,

Great !
Indeed, it's getting in a pretty good shape :)
Since you have it working, please update the thread title prepending [solved] so other forum users may know a solution has been found :)

It is a good idea to clean out /tmp folder when building on OS X - an old build was interfering when doing "make install"
