Compile Pascal Qt Interface from source: ======================================== * Download and unpack the sources * cd into the resulting unpacked directory * This directory contains amongs other things a Qt Project File Qt5Pas.pro * run qmake -query to inspect your Qt installation * qmake (creates Makefile based upon Qt5Pas.pro) * make (compiles) * make install (obtain super user rights with sudo or su) * make clean (cleans directory, do this when switching Qt versions) Linux Note: ----------- To use a different Qt then the system wide Qt, use /PathToOtherQt/bin/qmake and learn about LD_LIBRARY_PATH (export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/PathToOtherQt/lib) Mac OsX Note: ------------- qmake may create a xcode project instead of a g++ Makefile use xcodebuild to compile to create a g++ Makefile: QMAKESPEC=macx-g++ qmake The qmake project is configured to create a framework instead of a plain library Windows Note: ------------- Verify the QTDIR,QMAKESPEC environment variables. e.g. QMAKESPEC=win32-g++ and that make -v and gcc -v produce the expected result. Be sure that mingw32 shipped with Qt5 is in PATH, so bindings are built with correct mingw32 version. eg. for Qt-5.6.1 you can set all paths in cmd and build bindings. set PATH=C:\Qt5Directory\Tools\mingw492_32\bin;C:\Qt5Directory\5.6\mingw49_32\bin;%PATH% qmake -query qmake mingw32-make Installation ============ When compiling from source, you can use make install. When using the binary packages, see below. If preferred, first strip the libraries before installation. Linux Binary Installation ------------------------- The libraries should be copied to the distribution specific system library directory e.g. /usr/lib. Ensure the symlinks are correct. The .so.OneDigit link is used when running a program.(google soname) The .so link is used when linking during development Windows Binary Installation --------------------------- The dll can be copied to e.g. the Qt bin directory, as this directory is already in the PATH environment variable. Mac OsX Binary Installation --------------------------- The provided package installs to /Library/Frameworks
