Compiling a single C++ source file in QT Creator
My QT Creator builds an Android app with the following command:
"D:\dev\tools\cmake-3.24.2-windows-x86_64\bin\cmake.exe" --build D:/dev/repos/tradeclient/src/build-TradeClient-Android_Qt_6_5_2_arm64_v8a_debug_Clang_arm64_v8a-Debug --target all
I simply started Windows Command Prompt and was able to run the following commands:
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Qt\qtcreator-10.0.2\bin\jom
cd D:\dev\repos\tradeclient\src\build-TradeClient-Android_Qt_6_5_2_arm64_v8a_debug_Clang_arm64_v8a-Debug
"D:\dev\tools\cmake-3.24.2-windows-x86_64\bin\cmake.exe" --build . --target BotFactory.cpp.o
"D:\dev\tools\cmake-3.24.2-windows-x86_64\bin\cmake.exe" --build . --target ExchangeModel.cpp.o > my.txt 2>&1
"D:\dev\tools\cmake-3.24.2-windows-x86_64\bin\cmake.exe" --build . --target Bots/ShortBot.cpp.o > my2.txt 2>&1
What is the type of a string literal in C++?
The code below compiles and the asserts do not fail:
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
auto a = "str";
const auto& ar = "str";
const char* b = "str";
auto const &c = a;
auto* d = &a;
const auto e = 2;
static_assert(std::is_same_v<const char(&)[4], decltype("str")>);
static_assert(std::is_same_v<const char*, decltype(a)>);
static_assert(std::is_same_v<const char(&)[4], decltype(ar)>);
static_assert(std::is_same_v<const char* const&, decltype(c)>);
static_assert(std::is_same_v<const char**, decltype(d)>);
static_assert(std::is_same_v<const int, decltype(e)>);
std::cout << "a: " << typeid(a).name() << std::endl;
std::cout << "ar: " << typeid(ar).name() << std::endl;
std::cout << "b: " << typeid(b).name() << std::endl;
return 0;
}
And a and b have identical typeids.

Building QT6.5.2 for X11 on Ubuntu 22.04
In addition to the packages installed while building QT6.4 I installed the following packages required for X11:
sudo apt install libfontconfig1-dev libfreetype6-dev libx11-dev libx11-xcb-dev \
libxext-dev libxfixes-dev libxi-dev libxrender-dev libxcb1-dev \
libxcb-cursor-dev libxcb-glx0-dev libxcb-keysyms1-dev libxcb-image0-dev \
libxcb-shm0-dev libxcb-icccm4-dev libxcb-sync-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev \
libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-randr0-dev libxcb-render-util0-dev libxcb-util-dev \
libxcb-xinerama0-dev libxcb-xkb-dev libxkbcommon-dev libxkbcommon-x11-dev
And configured QT with dynamic linking:
export MY_INSTALL_PATH=/home/def/libs/QT6.5d
export QT_SRC_PATH=/home/def/repos/qt-everywhere-src-6.5.2
${QT_SRC_PATH}/configure -prefix $MY_INSTALL_PATH -DQT_NO_EXCEPTIONS=1 -debug-and-release -force-debug-info -opensource -confirm-license \

An example of overloading operator << in C++
The code below is compiled successfully with both GCC and MSVC:
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
template <class C>
class basic_format
{
public:
template <typename T>
basic_format & operator << (const T & val)
{
out << val;
return *this;
}
std::basic_string<C> str() const { return out.str(); }
operator std::basic_string<C>() const { return str(); }
private:
std::basic_ostringstream<C> out;
};
“Cannot anchor to a null item” waring in QML
The following QML code
Callout
{
id: call
//margins should bound but not assigned
anchors.topMargin: root.above ? undefined : yMargin
anchors.bottomMargin: root.above ? yMargin : undefined
...
}
produced “Cannot anchor to a null item” warning and worked incorrectly.
I tried to replace it with AnchorChanges and PropertyChanges:
