Building on Mac OS X

[durswd]

I try to execute in Mac.
I maybe find a bug.

public static string GetModuleNameFromLibFile(string libFile)
{
var qtModule = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(libFile);
if (Platform.IsWindows)
{
return "Qt" + qtModule.Substring("Qt".Length + 1);
}
return libFile.Substring("lib".Length);
}

In Mac, libFile is Qt3DQuickInput, QtCore, etc.
So this function return DQuickInput, ore, etc because 3 characters is removed from a head.

I think that it should return libFile in Mac.

In addition, I fix it. But it print "CppSharp has encountered an error while parsing code." because of missing files.

Thank you. Did you install Qt from its installers for macOS?

[durswd]

Yes, I used Qt Online Installer for macOS. Version is 5.8

[durswd]

I removed this line driver.Project.AddFile("guiddef.h"); because I think that this file is not required in Mac.

So errors are changed.

much 'error: source file is not valid UTF-8' and
'error: embedding a #include directive within macro arguments is not supported'

Users/xxx/Qt/5.8/clang_64/lib/QtDesigner.framework/QtDesigner(24414,2): error: unterminated function-like macro invocation
(88,25): error: expected '}'
Users/xxx/Qt/5.8/clang_64/lib/QtDesigner.framework/QtDesigner(24413,53): error: expected ';' after top level declarator

[ddobrev]

@durswd I am not sure if I can fix the error on your machine but I might have time by the end of the week to generate a binary release for you, would this work?

[durswd]

Thank you. I'm trying to generate a binary too.

[durswd]

I changed Qt 5.8 into Qt5.9. But same errors are caused.

I seem that a file reader is something wrong.

Parsing libraries...
Error parsing 'QtCore'
Parsing code...
Error parsing 'QtCore'
/Users/x/Qt/5.9/clang_64/lib/QtCore.framework/QtCore(1,1): error: source file is not valid UTF-8
/Users/x/Qt/5.9/clang_64/lib/QtCore.framework/QtCore(1,2): error: source file is not valid UTF-8
/Users/x/Qt/5.9/clang_64/lib/QtCore.framework/QtCore(1,3): error: source file is not valid UTF-8
...

[durswd]

I found that a binary file is included through an alias instead of a header file. For example, Versions/5/QtCore is included.

So I comment out module.IncludeDirs.Add(cb);

As a result of this, source file is not valid UTF-8 are not shown.
But CppSharp has encountered an error while parsing code. is still shown and parser errors are not shown.

[ddobrev]

@durswd I am really sorry to say I am still extremely busy. However, if you contact me in private, we could work something out. Look for my e-mail in my commit messages.

[durswd]

I sent a mail to you.

[durswd]

I sent and merged PR.
But this errors are still caused.
I try to fix it.

These bugs are solved on latest CppSharp.
But other bugs are caused.
