QMAKE_BUNDLE_DATA doesn't remove old folders

kambala

Hi. There's such piece in my .pro which copies 'translations' and 'data' folders:
@macx {
appresources.files += resources/translations
appresources.files += resources/data
appresources.path = Contents/Resources
QMAKE_BUNDLE_DATA += appresources
}@

If these folders don't exist in .app/Contents/Resources, then they're copied just fine. But if they do, then old folders aren't removed, although makefile says that they must be removed (the @$(DEL_FILE) lines):
@COPY_DIR = cp -f -R
DEL_FILE = rm -f

MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources/translations: /Users/svp/mxl_offline_tools/resources/translations
@$(CHK_DIR_EXISTS) MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources || $(MKDIR) MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources
@$(DEL_FILE) -r MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources/translations
@$(COPY_DIR) /Users/svp/mxl_offline_tools/resources/translations MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources/translations

MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources/data: /Users/svp/mxl_offline_tools/resources/data
@$(CHK_DIR_EXISTS) MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources || $(MKDIR) MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources
@$(DEL_FILE) -r MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources/data
@$(COPY_DIR) /Users/svp/mxl_offline_tools/resources/data MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources/data@

Is it possible to make the folders be removed somehow? QMAKE_PRE_LINK and QMAKE_EXTRA_TARGETS with rm -rf command doesn't work the way I want because QMAKE_BUNDLE_DATA copying is done before building the target:
@all: Makefile MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/PkgInfo MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources/empty.lproj MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Info.plist MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources/icon.icns MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources/translations MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources/data MedianXLOfflineTools.app/Contents/Resources/locversion.plist $(TARGET)@

Hi and welcome to devnet,

You might want to try asking on the interest mailing list, you'll find Qt's developers/maintainers there (this forum is more user oriented).

Maybe also check the "bug report system":http://bugreports.qt-project.org/issues to see if it's a known issue
