Blocked on rust-lang/rust#108081

Upstream PR to make this work: rust-lang/rust#113301

The upstream PR has been merged and will be released in stable Rust 1.74, which is scheduled for 16 November 2023. I suggest to leave this as a draft until then.

@Be-ing Awesome news, thanks! :-)

Rust 1.74 has been released so this now builds with stable Rust! 🥳

@Be-ing sweet! Great work on getting that stabilised into Rust 💪 We look at getting this landed and the reshuffle internally in the next cycle I think as 0.6 is imminent with a deadline we need to reach.

Seems to be getting a linking issue with double resources, need to investigate. Wonder if it's the QML module changes.

Fixed in #755

Locally this builds now, but it fails to run as it can't find the sub QML QObjects, needs some further investigation or maybe a clean build.

Be-ing commented Nov 27, 2023

I can reproduce that. nm -C build/examples/meta_project/example_meta_project|grep cxx_qt_demo_sub1 shows that the symbols for registering the QML type do end up in the executable... so why aren't they working? 🤔

I opened a PR for your fork to get this working: ahayzen-kdab#4 The errors were simply from missing #[qml_element] attributes :)

Aha! great spot thanks!

Seems macOS works, Windows has had a wobble with file locking / mapped stuff, Linux explodes using ld.gold.

Is this one of those, only lld works situations ?

Seems we're continuing the CXX-Qt tradition of stumbling over the weirdest edge cases of toolchains 😅

Somehow Cargo does specify linking the same qt-static-initializers library twice with --whole-archive, so it makes sense why gold fails... but why does Cargo do that? And only does that for cargo test?? Perhaps a Cargo bug?

As for the Windows Qt5 build error:

 error: failed to write file '\\?\C:\cxx-qt\build\cargo\build\x86_64-pc-windows-msvc\release\deps\libsub1-ef2617c41816f8ec.rlib': The requested operation cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open. (os error 1224)

I don't know. Another cargo/rustc bug? A Windows bug? I don't see this error code anywhere in any rust-lang GitHub repositories.

A quick hack around both of these problems would be replacing the --all-targets CLI option to cargo test in the root CMakeLists.txt with --workspace --exclude qml-meta-project. The qml-meta-project crate doesn't even have Cargo tests, so there's not much point building it in that context.

😅

Yeah, a switch around to ensure it builds (and maybe runs) would be useful, I'll probably look into this next month as I'm tight on time.

I don't think it's worth deep diving into the root causes of these errors right now considering that qml-meta-project doesn't even have Cargo tests. So I think switching to --workspace --exclude qml-meta-project would be sufficient for finally merging this PR.

Hopefully this will be enough to merge finally: ahayzen-kdab#5

Split only running cachegen when there are QML files in #811

Wonder if it's the Rust side that needs to not be parallel rather than the C++/CMake side, but still shouldn't happen.

The `increment` methods of the subobjects are invoked
from QML, so don't also invoke them from Rust.

This also makes the behavior of the application clearer:
Main counts by 1, Sub1 counts by 2, Sub2 counts by 3.
This isn't required for the libraries published to crates.io,
so this isn't specified in the workspace Cargo.toml.
No need to change the privacy of these; just need to have the
symbols referenced within the staticlib crate.

This will need further work and changes for the way QML modules are now passed around and as part of the 0.8 cycle improvements where a single crate could become a QML module.
