Building QT 6.3.0 for Windows with OpenSSL and C++20
Now QT doesn’t like backslashes in configure.bat parameters. Also I updated vcvarsall.bat path and added -c++std c++20: and tried static build with -static option:
CALL "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat" amd64
set "CMAKE_ROOT=E:\PFiles\cmake-3.21.3-windows-x86_64\bin"

Dramatically annoying crash at std::thread and std::mutex destructors on Android
It is a long story that started here about 2 years ago. My first understanding was that it is a QT bug that was not fixed within this 2 years, of course (as a rule or usually), but a couple weeks ago I noticed that a similar crash happens on Samsung Galaxy devices:

Waitable QTimer with C++20 coroutines
Found an example of overriding co_await operator and was able to implement my own version:
#include <QTimer>
#include <QMetaObject>
#include <chrono>
#include <coroutine>
//QTimer accepts only milliseconds.
class TimeAwaitable
{
public:
explicit TimeAwaitable(std::chrono::milliseconds d) : m_d(d) {}
~TimeAwaitable()
{
if (m_connection)
{
QObject::disconnect(m_connection);
}
}
bool await_ready() const noexcept
{
return m_d <= std::chrono::milliseconds(0);
}
void await_suspend(std::coroutine_handle<> h) noexcept
{
m_connection = QObject::connect(&m_timer, &QTimer::timeout,
[this, h]()
{
QObject::disconnect(m_connection);
h.resume();
});
m_timer.setSingleShot(true);
m_timer.start(m_d);
}
void await_resume() const noexcept {}
private:
std::chrono::milliseconds m_d;
QTimer m_timer;
QMetaObject::Connection m_connection;
};
inline TimeAwaitable operator co_await(std::chrono::milliseconds d) noexcept
{
return TimeAwaitable{ d };
}
For those who did not work with QT, QTimer::singleShot simply calls the lambda on the current thread after a given interval.
An example of real-time TableView in QML
Looks like CheckBox-es respond to clicks and work correctly even if they are in a TableView that is updated once a second:
Building QT 6.2.2 for iOS
I built QT 6.2.2. for MacOS first and then configured QT 6.2.2 for iOS as follows:
./configure -c++std c++20 -opensource -confirm-license -no-openssl -securetransport -DQT_NO_EXCEPTIONS=1 \
-platform macx-ios-clang -release -qt-host-path /usr/local/Qt-6.2.2 -prefix /usr/local/Qt-6.2.2-ios \
-skip qt3d -skip qt5compat -skip qtactiveqt -skip qtcharts -skip qtcoap -skip qtconnectivity \
-skip qtdatavis3d -skip qtdoc -skip qtlottie -skip qtmqtt -skip qtnetworkauth -skip qtopcua \
-skip qtserialport -skip qtpositioning -skip qtquicktimeline -skip qtquick3d -skip qtremoteobjects \
-skip qtscxml -skip qtsensors -skip qtserialbus -skip qtvirtualkeyboard -skip qtwayland \
-skip qtwebchannel -skip qtwebengine -skip qtwebview
Building QT 6.2.2 for MacOS – Part 2
In my previous post I described my first attempt to built QT 6.2.2 for MacOS. Probably my mistake was that I did not switch to full XCode with the command:
sudo xcode-select -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
and that I used the configuration script with a wrong syntax and missed -- in the command line. Probably the following configuration can be a step to a right direction:
./configure -c++std c++20 -opensource -confirm-license -no-openssl -securetransport -DQT_NO_EXCEPTIONS=1 \
-skip qt3d -skip qt5compat -skip qtactiveqt -skip qtcharts -skip qtcoap -skip qtconnectivity \
-skip qtdatavis3d -skip qtdoc -skip qtlottie -skip qtmqtt -skip qtnetworkauth -skip qtopcua \
-skip qtserialport -skip qtpositioning -skip qtquicktimeline -skip qtquick3d -skip qtremoteobjects \
-skip qtscxml -skip qtsensors -skip qtserialbus -skip qtvirtualkeyboard -skip qtwayland \
-skip qtwebchannel -skip qtwebengine -skip qtwebview \
