Building QT6.4 for MacOS – separate Debug and Release

I continued my experimentation in same SSH session where I built QT6.4 for MacOS with Ninja generator with the same QT sources location:

scp /mnt/d/dev.distrib/qt-everywhere-src-6.4.0.tar.xz admin@192.168.0.112:/Users/admin/repos
tar xf qt-everywhere-src-6.4.0.tar.xz
cd ~/build/qt
export MY_QT_SRC_DIR=~/repos/qt-everywhere-src-6.4.0

QT did not built with -debug-and-release option so I decided to build debug and release version separately with the following configurations:

Building QT6.4 for MacOS with Ninja generator

In the same SSH session where I built QT6.4 for MacOS with Unix Makefiles generator I installed ninja:

Building QT6.4 for MacOS with Unix Makefiles generator

On the same machine where I Built QT 6.2.2 for MacOS I opened SSH session and set the locale:

export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8  
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8

checked the locale has been set correctly:

locale

it printed the following:

LANG="en_US.UTF-8"  
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"  
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"

Building QT6.4 with qttranslation module for Windows

I was able to successfully build QT6.4 for Windows with skipped qttranslation and qttools modules. But if I do not skip them and configure QT as follows:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Professional\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat" amd64
    
set "CMAKE_ROOT=C:\dev\PFiles\cmake-3.24.0-rc4-windows-x86_64\bin"
set "NINJA_ROOT=C:\dev\PFiles\ninja-win"
set "PERL_ROOT=C:\dev\PFiles\Strawberry\perl\bin"
    
set PATH=%CMAKE_ROOT%;%PATH%
set PATH=%NINJA_ROOT%;%PATH%
set PATH=%PERL_ROOT%;%PATH%
set PATH=C:\dev\PFiles\Python35;%PATH%
    
rem Check if the tools are in PATH

Specialization of parameterless template function in C++

At least this compiles and works:

#include <iostream>
#include <memory>
#include <string>

template <class T>
std::shared_ptr<T> make_instance();

template <class T> requires std::is_default_constructible_v<T>
std::shared_ptr<T> make_instance()
{
    return std::make_shared<T>();
}

How I fixed my contact form

When I switched to PHP 7.4 I forgot to specify sendmail_path parameter in php.ini and my contact form stopped working. Today I found sendmail_path parameter in PHP 7.0:

cd /etc/php
find . -name "php.ini"
./7.0/fpm/php.ini
./7.0/cgi/php.ini
./7.0/cli/php.ini
./7.4/fpm/php.ini
./7.4/cli/php.ini
grep sendmail ./7.0/fpm/php.ini
sendmail_path = "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -f *****@yandex.ru -i"

Building QT6.4 with OpenSSL for Windows – iteration #1

I build it with similar commands as I used before for Building QT 6.3.1 with OpenSSL for Windows. The only difference was that I added -static-runtime option and skipped qtquick3dphysics and qtspeech modules:

set "CMAKE_ROOT=C:\dev\PFiles\cmake-3.24.0-rc4-windows-x86_64\bin"
