v1.12.1

Command line

• qitoolchain: add support for password-protected HTTP and FTP feed URLS.
• Added qitoolchain clean-cache to clean toolchains cache
• Added qidoc executable (work in progress)
• Added qibuild find PACKAGE to display CMake variables relate to the package (work in progress)
• Added qibuild config --wizard to configure both global and local settings
• qibuild package: always build in debug and in release on windows
• qisrc pull: fix return code on error (#6343)
• qibuild config --edit : do not mess with stdin
• qibuild init --interactive now calls qibuild config --wizard
• qibuild install: force calling of ‘make preinstall’
• qitoolchain update: update every toolchain by default
• qibuild test: use a custom CTest implementation instead of using the ctest executable. (Makes continuous integration much easier)
• qibuild package: clean command-line API
• qibuild convert: add --no-cmake argument
• qibuild convert: do not add include(qibuild.cmake) if it is already here
• qisrc pull now call qisrc fetch first (#204)
• qitoolchain create: prevent user to create bad toolchain names

CMake

• Better way of finding qibuild cmake framework, using find_package(qibuild) instead of include(qibuild.cmake)
• qi_create_gtest: prefer using a qibuild port of gtest
• qi_create_gtest: disable the target when gtest is not found
• qi_create_gtest: always add GTEST dependency
• qi_stage_lib, qi_use_lib better handling when first arg is not a target
• qi_create_lib did not honor NO_INSTALL argument
• qi_install_* functions no longer recurse through directories by default, use qi_install_*(... RECURSE)
• Added qi_create_test function, simpler to use than qi_add_test
• Added new qibuild cmake modules:
  • lttng and its dependencies
  • opencv2
  • qtmobility, qtxmlpatterns, qt_qtscript, qtsvg
  • qxt-core, qtxt-network
  • pythonqt

Configuration files

• Use XML configuration everywhere, conversion is done by qibuild on the fly for .qi/qibuild.cfg and <project>/qibuild.manifest
• Path in the configuration files are now preprend to the OS environment variables instead of being appended.
• Added a small tool to convert to new XML config (tools/convert-config)

Python

• Remove deprecated warning message when using python 2.6.1 on Mac
• qibuild.archive: by-pass python2.6 bugs
• qibuild.archive.zip_win: actually compress the archive
• qibuild.sh.to_native_path: follow symlinks
• qibuild.sh.rm: use rmtree from gclient
• qibuild.worktree: do not go through nested qi worktrees
• qibuild.command: use NotInPath in qibuild.call
• qibuild.toc.get_sdk_dirs: fix generation of dependencies.cmake in some corner cases
• qibuild.Project: add a nice __repr__ method
• qibuild does not crashes when an exception is raised which contains ‘%’ (#6205)

Misc:

• Cleanup installation of qibuild itself with cmake
• tests: rewrite python/run_test.py using nose
• Makefile: allow usage of PYTHON environment variable
• python/bin/qibuild script is usable as-is
• Lots of documentation updates
