There's currently no bug report attached to this one

Ok, thanks ! I just posted a comment on the bug report I talked about.

The problem is fixed with Qt 5.3 RC !!

Qt/5.3/Src/qtbase/qmake/generators/unix/unixmake2.cpp :

@
QString bundlePrefix = project->first("QMAKE_TARGET_BUNDLE_PREFIX").toQString();
if (bundlePrefix.isEmpty())
bundlePrefix = "com.yourcompany.";
QString bundleIdentifier = bundlePrefix + var("QMAKE_BUNDLE");

(...)

t << "-e "s,@ICON@," << icon.section(Option::dir_sep, -1) << ",g" "
<< "-e "s,@BUNDLEIDENTIFIER@," << bundleIdentifier << ",g" "
@

The only thing is that you must put a "." at the end of QMAKE_TARGET_BUNDLE_PREFIX, which is not the case with pbuilder...

Good catch, a fix for that is under review

Fixed in Qt 5.3.1 !

"https://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qtbase/source/b1d99dad098320777a4391052eac531c834748fa:dist/changes-5.3.1":https://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qtbase/source/b1d99dad098320777a4391052eac531c834748fa:dist/changes-5.3.1

Thanks for everything !! :)

Hi,
i've got custom .plist file in my app...

with 5.3.1 i got following error while compiling app for iOS

CFBundleIdentifier '@BUNDLEIDENTIFIER@' contains illegal character '@'

The same app was compiled with 5.3.0 without any errors. For now i've set CFBundleIdentifier with my company string and it works ok.

Cheers

How does your plist look like ?

bercik

It was the default one from /ios/mkspecs/macx-ios-clang/, plus i've added two additional keys at the end

@<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

At what stage do you get that error ?

bercik

I've created now new project just for test purposes.
The only thing that i've done now was copying default plist file and adding

QMAKE_INFO_PLIST = my.plist in .pro file.

The error appears at following stage :

ProcessProductPackaging /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS7.1.sdk/Entitlements.plist Err.build/Debug-iphoneos/Err.build/Err.xcent

I would say that you where lucky before. AFAIK these are placeholder values meant to be replaced with something sensible or if nothing is given, removed.
