Topic: How can i build in Windows QTcreator : KwidgetAddons KcoreAddons

Bonjour, 

je souhaite recompiler le projet chez moi, après avoir téléchargé les sources depuis de le git.
J'ai ouvert le projet avec Qtcreator, mais lorsque je demande à compiler j'ai une erreur qui s'affiche.
Il me dit qu'il me manque les modules :
- KwidgetAddons 
- KcoreAddons

Je ne sais pas comment les installer:-(
Je suis allé sur la page internet du "projet" KwidgetAddons  , pour le premier module, mais ça ne m'aide pas.

Je compte sur vous pour m'aider à me débloquer.
Faut-il configurer le projet depuis QT.
Faut réinstaller certain élément dans QT.
Autre chose ?

Je n'ai même pas commencé à regarder pour KcoreAddons

Merci d'avance

Re: How can i build in Windows QTcreator : KwidgetAddons KcoreAddons

It 's packaging work.
You build in shared mode also you need to learn windeployqt to find DLL's to put in bin folder with .exe binary.

Re: How can i build in Windows QTcreator : KwidgetAddons KcoreAddons

After many false leads I finally managed to complete a static build of Qelectrotech on Windows.
Learning a lot, I guess. I didn't end up using my complete static build of Qt, jasper, kcoreaddons and kwidgetaddons...

Here is a partial description, if I get a chance to do a clean VM build I should be able to fill in any blanks.
This was on a Win7 box, I may try it on Win10 next.

The whole install/build should be scriptable.
It may be an idea to add it to the WiKi, where it can be polished and kept up to date?

--- Several attempts at posting later ---

So, the forum doesn't like URLs, and I couldn't post in-line, see attached text file for what I had written here!



1. Install Msys64
   Instructions at https://www.msys2.org/
   Download installer https://repo.msys2.org/distrib/x86_64/msys2-x86_64-20200720.exe
   
2. Install build environment with pacman ("pacman -Syuu" updates system, "pacman -S package_name" installs package)
   Or install as required when attemt builds!

3. Install Qt5 Static build (Probably want to install default shared build as well)
   pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5-static

4. Install the extras required for Qet, kcoreaddons and kwidgetaddons
   Not currently available as packages, so have to build them yourself!
   Clone the msys2/MINGW-packages repo https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages somewhere local
   Fire up your Msys64 shell and:
   
   git clone https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages.git
   cd MINGW-packages
   cd mingw-w64-kcoreaddons-qt5
   KF5_VARIANT=static MINGW_INSTALLS=mingw64 makepkg-mingw -sLf
   pacman -U mingw-w64-x86_64-kcoreddons-qt5-static-5.68.0-1-any.pkg.tar.zst
   cd ..
   cd cd mingw-w64-kwidgetsaddons-qt5
   KF5_VARIANT=static MINGW_INSTALLS=mingw64 makepkg-mingw -sLf
   pacman -U mingw-w64-x86_64-kwidgetsaddons-qt5-static-5.68.0-1-any.pkg.tar.zst

5. Clone the qelectrotech main or mirror repo if not already done
   
   Details to be added:
   Run up qtcreator from your Msys64 shell
   Create a static build package, based on the static qmake
   Open the qelectrotech.pro project from the repo
   Attempt a build from qtcreator (which fails for me) (static, release only. debug is HUGE!)
   cd to the build directory where the qtcreator build failed
   mingw32-make
   Which (for me) succeeds, despite appearing to run exactly the same commands that failed from qtcreator!

thanks David, I added you on Wiki if you want to add this.
You saw a different speed with my Windows packages based on MXE cross-compiler?

Maybe in the future we need to think about paying a registration key for a Windows developer account in order to sign our Windows QET packages?

Installation of QET on Windows is a pain...
If somebodody have NSIS knowege to upgrade NSIS package to version 2-> 3, thanks and welcome.

What is the problem with Windows installer?
Have you found someone to help you?

No!
NSIS 2 version is now very old but upgrade scripts isn't easy and neccessary for Win 10.
