Macdeployqt dmg disabled build versions in Qt

[SGaist]

Copy the OpenStreetMap framework/dylib in the corresponding folder in the bundle structure.

@SGaist said in macdeployqt dmg disabled build versions in Qt:

Copy the OpenStreetMap framework/dylib in the corresponding folder in the bundle structure.

Where do I find the OpenStreetMap framework/dylib? isn't that included in QtLocation?

[SGaist]

My bad, I've mixed OpenStreetMap with another one. The osm plugin should be deployed.

[RaZp29]

@SGaist So how come no map is shown only my frame around it and all other tools when I deploy using macdeployqt with -dmg and -qmldir ?

[SGaist]

Did you try to start your application from the command line after running macdeployqt ? There might be information printed on the command line.

[RaZp29]

@SGaist I tried this but it didn't work. This is what the folder to the project in Qt Creator looks like And this is the folder produced by Qt Creator when deploying

Before running macdeployqt running my app from the terminal with: open -a RTKCar works just fine. Then I call macdeployqt from my root folder like this:
pathToMacdeployqt/macdeployqt pathToDeployedFolder/RTKCar.app -dmg -qmldir=PathToProjectFolder
After this I can run it from the terminal but the map won't show, same goes for opening it with the mouse or from the dmg.

When running the macdeployqt command, I get the following output:

I didn't expect it to work but to give more clues about what is going wrong. You don't have any message printing on the console ?

By the way, you should consider updating Qt. 5.9.3 and 5.10 have been released.

[RaZp29]

@SGaist I Downloaded Qt 5.10 and gave it a try, same output as before. I've also tried this for the Qt Map Viewer Example without any success.

[SGaist]

Not any QML error ?

[RaZp29]

@SGaist Nope. Do you want to give it a try with the Qt Map Viewer Example?

[SGaist]

That's what I was suspecting: missing plugins.

The quick and easy way would be to build your own version of macdeployqt with this patch applied.

[RaZp29]

@SGaist Wow thanks a lot! Will try this in a few days. Do you reckon linuxdeployqt will have the same issue?

[SGaist]

If everything goes well, clone the qttools repository and and build macdeployqt from the latest 5.10 branch.

Otherwise, you will have to apply two patches since there was a cleanup done in between.

[RaZp29]

@SGaist How do I build macdeployqt after cloning it? Tried to open the macdeployqt.pro file in Qt Creator and just build through there, but I got the error code:

ld: can't open output file for writing '/bin/macdeployqt.ld_z0wFts', errno=1 for architecture x86_64
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make[1]: *** [/bin/macdeployqt] Error 1
make: *** [sub-macdeployqt-make_first] Error 2
15:19:17: The process "/usr/bin/make" exited with code 2.
Error while building/deploying project macdeployqt (kit: Desktop Qt 5.9.2 clang 64bit)
When executing step "Make"

Or can I do it somehow using the terminal?

[SGaist]

/bin ? That strange.

I do it from the command line in an out of source folder:

mkdir build_macdeployqt
pushd build_macdeployqt
/path/to/qmake /path/to/Qt/qttools/src/macdeployqt/
make
make install

[RaZp29]

@SGaist when I do /path/to/qmake /path/to/Qt/qttools/src/macdeployqt/
I get :
Qt5.10.0/5.10.0/clang_64/mkspecs/features/mac/sdk.prf:26: Cannot write cache file /Users/.qmake.stash: Permission denied,
Tried it together with sudo, it worked: Info: creating stash file /Users/.qmake.stash
But when doing make I get:
ld: can't open output file for writing '/bin/macdeployqt.ld_jnQbB4', errno=1 for architecture x86_64 clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) make[1]: *** [/bin/macdeployqt] Error 1 make: *** [sub-macdeployqt-make_first] Error 2

[SGaist]

Are you using a self-compiled Qt ?

[RaZp29]

@SGaist No I downloaded the whole package from Qt, with Creator and everything and just used the provided installer.

[SGaist]

Ok, I was using my own build of Qt.

Configure the complete qttools module then you can just build macdeployqt.

mkdir build_qttools
pushd build_qttools
/path/to/qmake /path/to/Qt/qttools/ -r
make -C src/macdeployqt
cp bin/macdeploqt /path/to/macdeployqt

[edit: added missing option. SGaist]

[RaZp29]

@SGaist
build_qttools user$ make -C src/macdeployqt gives me:
make: *** src/macdeployqt: No such file or directory. Stop.
and
build_qttools user$ make -C pathTo/qttools/src/macdeployqt make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
