Bug when use macdeployqt to create executable file for qt application - qt

When I try macdeployqt xxx.appto create a executable file, it will report ERROR: Could not parse otool output line: "\t#rpath/libc++abi.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0, reexport)" and ERROR: Unexpected prefix "#loader_path".This problem happen even if I just create a new project and try to create a executable file for it...
enter image description here my computer is macos10.15.4, Qt Creator 4.11.2 and Qt 5.14.2
I looked for a long time but I couldn't solve it,Is there something wrong with my operation?or is there another way to create executable file for qt application in macos?

I get the answer. For me, just switch the path to such as /Users/yourname/Qt5.12.8/5.12.8/clang_64/bin and use ./macdeployqt xxx.app, then the macdeplotqt can work properly. Note: only use macdeplotqt xxx.app it will make the error I described.

How to use add-on "QtFtp"?

I want to use FTP in my current project, but since Qt5 ftp isn't available (only as add-on).
I downloaded the sources from here: https://github.com/qt/qtftp
In Qt's forum, I found a instruction how to use it:
Open Console in the qtftp-folder
Generate the headers: cd qtftp, <QTDIR>/bin/syncqt.pl -version 5.2.0
Run qmake
Run make (mingw32-make)
Run make install (mingw32-make install)
Add QT += ftp in my .pro-file
Run qmake on my project
compile my project.
(https://forum.qt.io/topic/23904/qtftp-and-qthttp-compatibility-add-ons-for-qhttp-and-qftp-classes-in-qt-5)
So, I wanted to try these steps, but it fails on the first step, because the syncqt.pl cant be found, but I looked in the Qt-directory, and the file is there.
Anybody has an idea, how to fix/solve this? I am using Qt5.9.1
If you have downloaded the portable version of strawberry-perl like me, just extract .zip somewhere on your disk. After that, open the portableshell.bat (it should open a command prompt window)
After that, you can type in the code of step 2, and don't forget to add the -version argument.
Then you can continue with step 3, and everything should work without any problems.

WinPython with PyQt5

I'm trying to get PyQt5 working with WinPython. PyQt5 comes with a readme file for installation, and I have unsuccessfully tried a few combinations of what I thought the first part of the readme tells me to do.
I have:
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
WinPython-64bit-2.7.9.1
Qt 5.4
PyQt-gpl-5.4
PyQt-gpl-5.4 is in the folder (only partially sure that this is where I should have put it)
C:\WinPython-64bit-2.7.9.1\python-2.7.9.amd64\Lib\site-packages\PyQt-gpl-5.4
My current attempt at getting everything working is: I'm trying to run the configure.py file in PyQt-gpl-5.4, but when I do so I consistently get the following error:
Error: PyQt5 requires Qt v5.0 or later. You seem to be using v4.8.6.
Make sure the correct version of qmake is on your PATH.
What I think is the required version of qmake being referred to is in the folder
C:\Qt\5.4\mingw491_32\bin
However, I have no idea how to fix the error by adding the qmake in this folder to PATH. My most recent attempt was to add the folder using Spyder's Tools->PYTHONPATH manager, but this made no difference. I also tried adding it using sys.path.append('C:\Qt\5.4\mingw491_32\bin'), but this didn't work either. I have since removed the folder name from both of these locations.
How do I get PyQt5 working with WinPython-64bit-2.7.9.1, or I think equivalently, how to I get the configure.py file in the PyQt-gpl-5.4 folder to run?
Thanks.
You definitely don't want the source code (i.e. PyQt-gpl-5.4) in the site-packages folder, because that's where the compiled modules will end up. Instead, it should just go in a temporary folder whilst you compile it.
When you run configure.py, you must take care to use the executable for the specific python that you are targeting. I do not know anything about WinPython, but for a normal python installation this means doing something like this:
C:\Python34\python configure.py
As a first step, before attempting to actually compile anything, it would be advisable to take at look at all the configuration options that are available, like this:
C:\Python34\python configure.py --help
(There's also the Installing PyQt5 section in the PyQt Docs).
This will tell you, for instance, that the simplest way to specify the Qt installation you are targeting would be something like this:
C:\Python34\python configure.py --qmake C:\Qt\5.4\mingw491_32\bin\qmake
EDIT:
Sorry, that last part is wrong: the --qmake option isn't available on Windows, so you have to add the directory containing the qmake executable to your PATH. This can be done with the following command:
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Qt\5.4\mingw491_32\bin

Cant use shared libraries in Qt project

I created a C++ library project in Qt creator. After building the project I have the libMylib.so, .so.1, .so.1.0, .so.1.0.0, Makefile and mylib.o files. I added the library headers to my other project and added the path to my .pro file like this:
LIBS += "/home/peter/Workspace/build-Libtester-Desktop-Release/libMyLib.so"
When building the application I don't get no such file error, but when running it I get this:
/home/peter/Workspace/build-Libtester-Desktop-Debug/Libtester: error while loading shared libraries: libMyLib.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
which I can't understand, because it's right there next to the .so which it seem to find, because when the path is wrong I get a no such file or directory error when trying to build the project.
Could someone explain what I'm missing here?
Thanks for your time.
Fortunately, your problem has nothing to do with both Qt and Qt Creator. The error simply boils down to how shared libraries are searched by LD for dynamic linking on Unix OS family.
Today, I've answered similar question, have a look, please. This question was asked in regard to Mac OS X. However, Linux and Mac OS X are the same in the context of your problem. I've provided additional explanation for Linux at the bottom, so pay attention to it. "it's right there next to the .so" - you seem to have Windows background if you make this assumption, but it is wrong for Unix OS family altogether (as stated in the answer too). If you have further questions, just ask.
You are adding the library incorrectly. You are doing:
LIBS += "/home/peter/Workspace/build-Libtester-Desktop-Release/libMyLib.so"
instead of:
LIBS += -L"/home/peter/Workspace/build-Libtester-Desktop-Release" -lMyLib
The first version works on windows, but not linux.
Basically, you create a library, which will be named "libMyLib.so", and then you specify the path to its folder, prepended by "-L" and then do "-lMyLib" at the end, note that it's not "-llibMyLib", but just "-lMyLib", despite the fact that the .so name is "libMyLib".

netbeans, Qt, & Qmake "command not found"

All,
I am (trying to) using Netbeans to build a simple Qt app (from a tutorial) and I cannot build it because I get this error:
/C/Qt/2010.02.1/qt/qmake/qmake.exe VPATH=. -spec win32-g++ -o qttmp-Debug.mk nbproject/qt-Debug.pro
make[1]:/C/Qt/2010.02.1/qt/qmake/qmake.exe: Command not found
when the file is exactly there, and I can open a terminal and execute it.
Note in the error message: "/C/Qt..." The actual path is C:/Qt...
I have used the tools/options/c++ dialog to browse to the file and select it, and it is specified as C:\Qt... just like all the other tools. What is corrupting the C: and making it /C/ ?
Now, if I remove the path to qmake, and have it use the PATH environment variable, it finds it, but then it fails due to 'multiple targets'...
Obviously, pilot error, but where? I have seen several posts on this, and they all say to make sure it is in the path, and it is, so now what? (I can open a terminal and type 'qmake' and I get the 'Usage: qmake..." so I know it is visible.
Windows 7, Netbeans 7.0, MinGW (I also have cygwin installed...).
Any and all help greatly appreciated.
:bp:
Addenda: I changed the path to my 'make' to use the MinGW one rather than the cygqin one, and now it can find qmake, but I get other errors: 'Could not find mkspecs for your QMAKESPEC(win32-g++) after trying:...
Any additional thoughts?
QMake requires more than just a path to work correctly. On my Windows box, there is a menu option for 'Qt Command Prompt' under the 'Qt SDK 2010.05' group in the Start Menu. Running it produces the following:
Setting up a MinGW/Qt only environment...
-- QTDIR set to C:\Qt\2010.05\qt
-- PATH set to C:\Qt\2010.05\qt\bin
-- Adding C:\Qt\2010.05\bin to PATH
-- Adding C:\WINDOWS\System32 to PATH
-- QMAKESPEC set to win32-g++
You will want to make sure the environment you launch qmake in has all of those set.
The most probable reason you are see '/C/...' is because you are causing a mingw shell to run when you execute your build.

Qmake does not specify a valid qt

After installing Qt SDK for Open Source C++ development on Mac OS by following the respective steps
Note for the binary package: If you have the binary package, simply
double-click on the Qt.mpkg and follow the instructions to install Qt.
Yes, that is all I have done to install Qt on MacOsX. Everything was going fine, until I run a sample application, of which compile output resulted in:
No valid Qt version set.
Set one in Preferences
Error while building project qtilk
When executing build step 'QMake'
Canceled build.
Then I tried to change the respective Qt version in Preferences and I hovered over the Path, I realized my mkspec isn't set:
Then I tried querying qmake by qmake -query:
QT_INSTALL_PREFIX:/
QT_INSTALL_DATA:/usr/local/Qt4.6
QT_INSTALL_DOCS:/Developer/Documentation/Qt
QT_INSTALL_HEADERS:/usr/include
QT_INSTALL_LIBS:/Library/Frameworks
QT_INSTALL_BINS:/Developer/Tools/Qt
QT_INSTALL_PLUGINS:/Developer/Applications/Qt/plugins
QT_INSTALL_TRANSLATIONS:/Developer/Applications/Qt/translations
QT_INSTALL_CONFIGURATION:/Library/Preferences/Qt
QT_INSTALL_EXAMPLES:/Developer/Examples/Qt/
QT_INSTALL_DEMOS:/Developer/Examples/Qt/Demos
**QMAKE_MKSPECS:/usr/local/Qt4.6/mkspecs**
QMAKE_VERSION:2.01a
QT_VERSION:4.6.2
QMAKE_MKSPECS seems to be set here??
Will setting my mkspec solve my building problem? I tried setting by typing export mkspec=macx-g++. Still, mkspec seems not to be set to anything. I am all ears waiting for your answers. Thanks in advance.
To set the correct spec, use:
qmake -spec max-g++
