Deploy application in macOS.

moVir

@SGaist, Ok in this folder I have my qt project release.

Here what I try to do with terminal

What I need to do?

SGaist

Did you create a command line application ?

moVir

@SGaist Can you please clarify what you are talking about?
If you're talking about my app, no, it's a full GUI using QT.
If you're talking about macdeployqt, I didn't create it, it was already there.

@moVir provide the full path to the macdeployqt tool in the terminal
pathToQt/5.15.2/clang_64/bin/macdeployqt

in case of a QML based application, do not forget to provide the path to your qml files via --qmldir

SGaist

You seem to have only the executable created where you should have an application bundle.

Do you have CONFIG -= app_bundle in your .pro file ?
If so remove it. If not, then that is strange and you shall add CONFIG += app_bundle.

moVir

@SGaist Yea, here the main problem. I don't have .pro. Because I work with Cmake, not with Qmake, this what I mean here:

So I want to know, is it possible to create application bundle with CMake.

SGaist

Sorry, I misread that.

Can you share your cmake file ?

Here u can find it.

SGaist

You need to set the MACOSX_BUNDLE property on your application.

moVir

@SGaist Thank u! It's work!
For everybody who not understand:
U need add this to your CmakeList.txt:

set(CMAKE_MACOSX_BUNDLE ON)

After u need build your project in release with QT Creator (I hope u understand this step)

Next u can find folder (in folder of your project) with name like: "build_projName_Desktop_Qt_5_15_2_clang_64bit-Release"

And there u can find file with extension: " .app"

After open terminal and go to folder ONE STEP BEFORE ur Release folder.

Next u need to open Terminal and ATTENTION, as @J-Hilk said:
"provide the full path to the macdeployqt tool in the terminal

pathToQt/5.15.2/clang_64/bin/macdeployqt

"
DO NOT PRESS ENTER

After u provide path to macdeployqt, press "Space" and write :" build_projName_Desktop_Qt_5_15_2_clang_64bit-Release/projname.app"
If u still not understand, here my example(only terminal part).

Good luck and thanks to @J-Hilk and @SGaist .
