Hello,

Does the mac binary installer contain both Qt4intf and also Qt4?

Do you think I would be able to use the 4.4 installer with software compiled using the 4.3 bindings?

thanks,

no only Qt4Intf, therefore much smaller. I should not package binary libs of someone else. The trolls have a nice Qt4 package. I made sure that Qt4Intf knows where QtCore/QtGui are.

No. But it so easy now to create the framework, why don't you use the script. You do not have to compile Qt anymore.

To create a package, just drop the Qt4Intf framework dir on a new package of the package maker, check the include root option, apply recommendations and click build.

Yes, but it seams to look for QtCore/QtGui in /usr/lib, but the Trolltech installer puts them in /Library/Frameworks

Here is the result of trying to compile a Qt app:

Hello,

Building the Qt 4.3 framework fails. I have a intel mac with Mac OS X 10.4 and standard compiled from the DVDs:

computador-de-felipe-monteiro-de-carvalho:~/Programas/qt4pas-V1.68_Qt4.3.4 felipe$ sudo ./compile_lib_mac.sh

otool: can't open file: Qt4Intf (No such file or directory)

Qt 4.4 builds correctly.

Ok, I updated to Qt 4.4.3 , added -framework QtCore -framework QtGui to build my software but I still can't get it to link!

I do not know why it fails on your computer. I installed Qt 4.3 (w/o removing Qt 4.4, the installer removed it) and followed the instructions from V1.68: with this result: Qt 4.3 freepasca:-)

with my splint finger, I accidentally pushed the Send Button. So, can you please remove and cleanly install
* latest xcode
* latest fpc : make sure you have a clean /etc/fpc.cfg
* remove from /Library/Receipts all Qt4Intf*
* Qt 4.4 or 4.3 from dmg (not from source/make install)
* Note: you did not have to sudo the "compile lib script", only sudo the "create framework script".

If this solves it, it was a PC configuration, else ... ?!

I tried Qt 4.4 and Qt 4.3 and both just work with their respective (!) V1.68

Den Jean

Ok, I found the problem!!! wow, this one took a lot of time =)

I didn't define USE_QT_44 when building the LCL! Now it links correctly ...

thanks,

Yes, as soon as we go with qt-44 as default :)

If you want to upgrade to qt-44 as default (or even drop 4.3) it's ok for me.

The latest Mandriva comes with Qt 4.4.

But I think we should draw a line somewhere and don't just upgrade when Qt 4.5 comes, otherwise we will never support anything except the very latest linux distributions.

4.5 is the top of 4.X series and we have to go in that direction (devel) when it comes out.
Most important reason to go to 4.5 is pen modes which are implemented in 4.5 , but not in earlier versions, many bugs (especially boundsRect() on all platforms) are fixed etc... 0.9.28 should be 4.4 by default. So, it's cost of development.There will be define USE_QT_45 when it comes out (post 0.9.28), but I'm sure that it will not make troubles like transition 4.3->4.4, since bindings will not be changed so much, except for painter composition enums, and QPainter addon funcions like fillRect().
