"qt_add_lupdate" dublicate lines

posktomten

Hey!

Now it's a bit strange again!
In Qt Creator:
I have checked "programmname_lupdate" in "Project settings" , "Build steps", "Details",

lupdate is running every time the program is compiled.

Updating '../code/i18n/_streamcapture2_it_IT.ts'...
    Found 432 source text(s) (0 new and 432 already existing)
Updating '../code/i18n/_streamcapture2_sv_SE.ts'...
    Found 432 source text(s) (0 new and 432 already existing)
Updating '../code/i18n/_streamcapture2_template_xx_XX.ts'...
    Found 432 source text(s) (0 new and 432 already existing)

The problem is (in the ts file)

<message>
        <location filename="../downloadlistdialog.cpp" line="108"/>
        <location filename="../downloadlistdialog.cpp" line="108"/>
        <location filename="../downloadlistdialog.cpp" line="108"/>
        <location filename="../downloadlistdialog.cpp" line="108"/>
        <location filename="../downloadlistdialog.cpp" line="108"/>

        <location filename="../downloadlistdialog.cpp" line="108"/>
        <location filename="../downloadlistdialog.cpp" line="108"/>
        <location filename="../downloadlistdialog.cpp" line="108"/>
        <source>Save as text file</source>
        <translation>Spara som textfil</translation>
    </message>

A new edentical row is created every time!

I CMakeLists.tex

In CMakeLists.txt
set(TS_FILES
     ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/i18n/_streamcapture2_it_IT.ts
     ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/i18n/_streamcapture2_sv_SE.ts
     ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/i18n/_streamcapture2_template_xx_XX.ts
)

qt_add_lupdate(streamcapture2 TS_FILES ${TS_FILES})

This is no cmake problem but lupdate - sometimes it's not as intelligent as it should be.

This indeed looks like a bug in lupdate. Which Qt version are you testing with, on which platform?

Would be great if you could file a bug wiht the details at https://bugreports.qt.io/projects/QTBUG , component 'Tools: Linguist'.

I will file a bug report.

Tested with
lupdate 6.4.1 on Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04 (Qt Creator 9.0.0)
lupdate 6.4.1 on Windows 10 (Qt Creator 9.0.0)

I'll check how it works with Qt5.15.7, I haven't done that yet.

@posktomten
If I configure the same program with qmake and run

lupdate progname.pro

Then everything works as it should.
