Setup dependencies

Note: if not stated otherwise the commands should be run from the root of the source tree

1. conancenter

Execute conan remote list. It should return this line among the results:

conancenter: https://center.conan.io [Verify SSL: True]

If it doesn't, consider upgrading conan with pip install conan --upgrade and then executing. conan remote add -i 0 conancenter https://center.conan.io. See conan's documentation for more info.

2. conan libstdc++11

This applies to linux: the default conan profile does not work, since GCC uses the new C++ ABI since version 5.1 and conan, for compatibility purposes uses the old C++ ABI. Execute this to update the profile:

conan profile update settings.compiler.libcxx=libstdc++11 default

2. Install dependencies

Install latest Qt release 6.3.X

Platform specific conan profile

• Macos:
  • Apple silicon: conan install . --profile=vendor/conan-configs/apple-arm64.ini -s build_type=Release --build=missing -if=build/conan -of=build
  • Intel: conan install . --profile=vendor/conan-configs/apple-x86_64.ini -s build_type=Release --build=missing -if=build/conan -of=build
• Windows: TODO
• Linux: conan install . --profile=./vendor/conan-configs/linux.ini -s build_type=Release --build=missing -if=build/conan -of=build

Build, test & run

Update CMake to the Latest Release or use the Qt's "$QTBASE/Tools/CMake/..."

Build with cmake

# linux
cmake -B build -S . -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$HOME/Qt/6.3.2/gcc_64" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=build/conan/conan_toolchain.cmake

# MacOS: cmake -B build -S . -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$HOME/Qt/6.3.2/macos" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=build/conan/conan_toolchain.cmake

# Windows: cmake -B build -S . -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="$HOME/Qt/6.3.2/mingw_64" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=build/conan/conan_toolchain.cmake

cmake --build build

Run tests

ctest --test-dir ./build

Build with QtCreator

Go to QtCreator's preferences navigate to Environment -> System -> Environment -> Change add GOBIN to the PATH

MacOS instructions

If go is installed with brew use the following configuration otherwise adapt it to your environment. Also this will allow access to conan if installed by brew

Use this in the Environment section of the QtCreator's preferences:

GOBIN=${GOPATH}/bin
GOPATH=${HOME}/go
PATH=${PATH}:${GOBIN}:/opt/homebrew/bin:/opt/homebrew/sbin
