OS X Deployment - Frameworks

Message 1 in thread

Hey,
I am trying to deploy a dynamically linked app on OS X.  I have read
the docs < http://doc.trolltech.com/4.2/deployment-mac.html > multiple
times and have created the simplest possible case and it doesn't work.
 I am going to be extra explicit b/c I have followed the directions
multiple times and I must be misinterpreting them or not making some
assumption that they are making.

Here goes:

cd ~
mkdir myApp
cd myApp
touch main.cpp

main.cpp looks like this:

#include <QApplication>
#include <QtGui>

int main( int argc, char** argv )
{
        QApplication app( argc, argv );
        QLabel label( "Hello Qt" );
        label.show();
        return app.exec();
}

qmake -project
qmake -spec macx-g++ -config release
make

## my app works fine ##

mkdir myApp.app/Contents/Frameworks
cp -R /Library/Frameworks/QtCore.framework myApp.app/Contents/Frameworks
cp -R /Library/Frameworks/QtGui.framework myApp.app/Contents/Frameworks

#install_name_tool fun

install_name_tool -id
@executable_path/../Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4.0/QtCore
myApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4.0/QtCore

install_name_tool -id
@executable_path/../Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4.0/QtGui
myApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4.0/QtGui

install_name_tool -change
/Library/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4.0/QtCore
@executable_path/../Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4.0/QtCore
myApp.app/Contents/MacOS/myApp

install_name_tool -change
/Library/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4.0/QtGui
@executable_path/../Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4.0/QtGui
myApp.app/Contents/MacOS/myApp

install_name_tool -change
/Library/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4.0/QtCore
@executable_path/../Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4.0/QtCore
myApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4.0/QtGui

cd /Library/Frameworks
mkdir hide
copy all the Qt frameworks into the "hide" directory so myApp.app has

Run myApp.app.

It opens and closes quickly.

I don't know what's going wrong and I don't even know how to tell
what's going wrong.

Help me qt user list.  You're my only hope.

Thanks in advance...

"Use the source, Luke, use the source!"

Hmmmm, but your source actually looks good to me - still I had to write 
the above (useless) statement. Sorry, could not resist ;)

Cheers, Oliver

possibly it's working when you do this instead of the following:

 install_name_tool -change
QtCore.framework/Versions/4.0/QtCore
@executable_path/../Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4.0/QtCore
myApp.app/Contents/MacOS/myApp

install_name_tool -change
QtGui.framework/Versions/4.0/QtGui
@executable_path/../Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4.0/QtGui
myApp.app/Contents/MacOS/myApp

install_name_tool -change
QtCore.framework/Versions/4.0/QtCore
@executable_path/../Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4.0/QtCore
myApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4.0/QtGui

the second line has to look like the Framework path as it is given by

otool -L myApp.app/Contents/MacOS/myApp

in my case it looks like e.g.

QtCore.framework/Versions/4.0/QtCore

and not 

/Library/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4.0/QtCore

Thanks for your responses.

Seb,
It still doesn't work. To test it I am temporarily moving my system
installed QtFrameworks to another folder.  Is this a good way to
quickly simulate a machine w/o qt?

I typed exactly what you said and the same thing happened.  Then I
started from scratch and still nothing.

Any other ideas,

Thanks again...
-Willy

Please run your application from terminal like this:

cd ~/myApp
./myApp.app/Contents/MacOS/myApp

There "should" be some usefull output.

Also here is the result of my otool:  It seems that no matter what I
do with the install_name_tool the results of otool are always the
same.  Not sure if that's good or bad.

otool -L myApp.app/Contents/MacOS/myApp

Well, you didn't change your executable with install_name_tool.  
Everytime you recompile it you need to run:

install_name_tool -change QtGui.framework/Versions/4/QtGui  
@executable_path/../Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4/QtGui  
myApp.app/Contents/MacOS/myApp
install_name_tool -change QtCore.framework/Versions/4/QtCore  
@executable_path/../Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4/QtCore  
myApp.app/Contents/MacOS/myApp

Also you have to prepare your Qt frameworks to work with your bundle:

cp -Rf /path/to/your/Qt/copy/QtGui.framework ./myApp.app/Contents/ 
Frameworks/
cp -Rf /path/to/your/Qt/copy/QtCore.framework ./myApp.app/Contents/ 
Frameworks/
cd ./myApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/
install_name_tool -change QtCore.framework/Versions/4/QtCore  
@executable_path/../Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4/QtCore ./ 
QtGui.framework/QtGui
install_name_tool -id @executable_path/../Frameworks/QtCore.framework/ 
Versions/4/QtCore ./QtCore.framework/QtCore
install_name_tool -id @executable_path/../Frameworks/QtGui.framewrok/ 
Versions/4/QtGui ./QtGui.framework/QtGui

note that you have to copy frameworks with -R switch instead of -r. - 
R copies symbolic links, and with -r you copy file pointed by link.

Message 9 in thread

Kamil,
It worked.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.

There are a number of differences between what I was doing and what
you wrote.  The most significant of which was:

cd ./myApp.app/Contents/Frameworks/

before the last batch of install_name_tooling

I know this sounds stupid but I was running those install_name_tool's
from the build dir.

When you have no idea what's going on it's nice to get line by line
instructions.  Now I see what install_name_tool is trying to do...

Thanks agian...

-Willy

Here is what I use (also create the dmg) to ease the install tool pain
(works for an OpenGL app) :)

Copy frameworks with -R instead of -r. If you use -r then you copy  
framework contents like 3 or 4 times (it will be bigger), instead of  
copying only symlinks...
