From f28401554af8fe48994b0c08668f0c1408708fe1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Maynard Date: Thu, 9 Jun 2016 08:23:47 -0400 Subject: cmake-gui: Teach Qt5 where plugins are when launched through a symlink When we are on OSX and we are launching cmake-gui from a symlink, the application will fail to launch as it can't find the qt.conf file which tells it what the name of the plugin folder is. We need to add this path BEFORE the application is constructed as that is what triggers the searching for the platform plugins --- Source/QtDialog/CMakeSetup.cxx | 34 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 34 insertions(+) diff --git a/Source/QtDialog/CMakeSetup.cxx b/Source/QtDialog/CMakeSetup.cxx index c3c1468..c849d52 100644 --- a/Source/QtDialog/CMakeSetup.cxx +++ b/Source/QtDialog/CMakeSetup.cxx @@ -19,6 +19,7 @@ #include #include #include +#include #include #include #include @@ -40,6 +41,7 @@ static const char* cmDocumentationOptions[][2] = { { 0, 0 } }; #if defined(Q_OS_MAC) static int cmOSXInstall(std::string dir); +static void cmAddPluginPath(); #endif int main(int argc, char** argv) @@ -81,6 +83,15 @@ int main(int argc, char** argv) } #endif +// When we are on OSX and we are launching cmake-gui from a symlink, the +// application will fail to launch as it can't find the qt.conf file which +// tells it what the name of the plugin folder is.
