ICQ for windows is compiled by Visual Studio.
The solution file is icq.sln
To build it, you need to provide three environment variables.
QT_PATH
- path to dir containing the built Qt version (dir with foldersbin
,include
,lib
)BOOST_INCLUDE
- path for boost inclusions (dir containing folderboost
)BOOST_LIB
- path to boost libraries
ICQ for Mac is compiled by Xcode and does not require any dependencies resolving.
Xcode project file is mac/ICQ/ICQ.xcodeproj
ICQ for Linux is compiled by Qt creator, so you need to prepare Qt environment first.
Qt may be installed from the official installer (see Qt official website) or compiled from source code and linked statically/dynamically.
To configure Qt, we use the following command line:
./configure -static -release -c++11 -no-opengl -no-harfbuzz \
-no-audio-backend -system-xkbcommon-x11 -dbus-linked -no-openssl -qt-xcb \
-confirm-license -opensource -qt-zlib -qt-libjpeg -qt-libpng
You will also require the following packages, which can be obtained via your package manager:
libfontconfig1-dev
libfreetype6-dev
libx11-dev
libxext-dev
libxfixes-dev
libxi-dev
libxrender-dev
libxcb1-dev
libx11-xcb-dev
libxcb-glx0-dev
Additionally, we patched Qt source code:
qtbase/src/gui/text/qtextlayout.cpp
if (lbh.currentPosition > 0 && lbh.currentPosition < end
&& attributes[lbh.currentPosition].lineBreak
&& eng->layoutData->string.at(lbh.currentPosition - 1).unicode() == QChar::SoftHyphen) {
- comment or remove code block in
if
construction
qtbase/src/gui/text/qtextengine.cpp
if (si->position + itemLength >= lineEnd
&& eng->layoutData->string.at(lineEnd - 1).unicode() == QChar::SoftHyphen)
glyphs.attributes[glyphsEnd - 1].dontPrint = false;
- change
false
totrue
In order to install the prepared version of Qt in Qt Creator, use official Qt manuals.
We provides two .pro
files containing build configuration for the project:
corelib/corelib/corelib.pro
- core librarygui/gui.pro
- gui (executable file)
In gui.pro
, you may switch between x32
and x64
architecture, as well as external and internal resources linking (CONFIG
variable).
You also have to provide a path to the directory, containing corelib.a
file, which is obtained by building corelib.pro
project (CORELIB_PATH
variable).
Before building gui.pro
file, you need to install libqt4-dev
package and execute config_linux.sh
in trunk root.
Additional library dependencies can be found in gui.pro
or by following errors during the linkage process = )
The missing dependencies can be installed via your package manager.
