Tester @Goofybud on Debian reported that the enter button did not work.
There are apparently 4 different enter buttons in X11:
XK_Linefeed
XK_Return
XK_KP_Enter
XK_ISO_Enter
I am attempting XK_Return because it seems like the most obvious next
attempt.
Manually creating an RC file was the Qt 4 way. The Qt 5 way is just
giving it an icon.
When an RC_FILE isn't manually created Qt will attempt to create one. If
there are non-integers in the version number the compilation will crash.
AdvancedSettings_resource.rc is a build artifact on Windows.
This allows Qmake to use the version number as well as not requiring all
other uses of the version string to strip double quotes from it. This
also reduces the fragility of the version string as it was required to
be a valid C++ char*, even in contexts where that wouldn't matter.
Users do not care about commit numbers and it only serves to confuse
them. Release builds should not contain build metadata since there
should only be one definitive version.
SemVer 2.0.0 requires a plus for build metadata.
https://semver.org/
`Build metadata MAY be denoted by appending a plus sign and a series of
dot separated identifiers immediately following the patch or pre-release
version. Identifiers MUST comprise only ASCII alphanumerics and hyphen
[0-9A-Za-z-]. Identifiers MUST NOT be empty. Build metadata SHOULD be
ignored when determining version precedence. Thus two versions that
differ only in the build metadata, have the same precedence. Examples:
1.0.0-alpha+001, 1.0.0+20130313144700, 1.0.0-beta+exp.sha.5114f85.`
It does not work in the init section for some reason, with python giving
python .\\build_scripts\\append_to_version_file.py
%APPVEYOR_REPO_COMMIT%
python: can't open file '.\\build_scripts\\append_to_version_file.py':
[Errno 2] No such file or directory
While the initial idea of having cmd/PS/bash actually write the changes
to file, the integration with the AppVeyor YAML just made it really
frustrating.
It is not strictly necessary in the Python version because it's being
appended to a batch command, but in order to have things make sense if
the mechanism of dispatching commands changes the program will strip
double quotes.
This is definitely not a pretty thing. Double quotes are required around
the string which means they'll need to be removed in the NSIS and Python
scripts.
AppVeyor automatically updated to LLVM 8 while everything else was on 7.
It is not possible to downgrade to LLVM 7 on AppVeyor, so we'll update
everything else to LLVM 8.
On Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 it is not possible to get Qt 5.12 from the
official repo. You will need to get it from
https://launchpad.net/~beineri/+archive/ubuntu/opt-qt-5.12.2-bionic
which places the files in /opt. This leads qmake to including the files
as non system headers, which makes them spam errors. Adding them as
-isystem headers first prevents this.
