qbs 1.17.0

General

• The lookup order in PathProbe changed to [environmentPaths,
  searchPaths, platformEnvironmentPaths, platformSearchPaths].
• The pathPrefix and platformPaths properties have been removed from the
  PathProbe item. They were deprecated since Qbs 1.13.
• The protocBinary property in the protobuf module has been renamed to
  compilerPath.
• A new module capnp for Cap'n Proto in C++ applications has been added.
  Cap'n Proto is a serialization protocol similar to protobuf.
• The qbs-setup-android tool got a --system flag to install profiles
  system-wide similar to qbs-setup-qt and qbs-setup-toolchains.

Language

• The product and project variables are now available on the
  right-hand-side of moduleProvider expressions and the default scope is
  product (QBS-1587).

C/C++ Support

• Lots of improvements have been made on toolchain support for
  bare-metal devices in general. Bare-metal targets can be selected by
  setting qbs.targetPlatform to 'none'.
• KEIL: The ARMCLANG, C166 and C251 toolchains are now supported.
• IAR: National's CR16, Microchip's AVR32, NXP's M68K, Renesas'
  M8/16C/M32C/R32C/SuperH targets and RISC-V targets are now supported.
• GCC: National's CR16, NXP M68K, Renesas M32C/M32R/SuperH/V850 as well
  as RISC-V and Xtensa targets are now supported.
• MSVC: Module definition files can now be used to provide the linker
  with information about exports and attributes (QBS-571).
• MSVC: "/external:I" is now used to set system include paths (QBS-1573).
• MSVC: cpp.generateCompilerListingFiles is now supported to generate
  assembler listings.
• Xcode: macOS framework paths on the command line are now automatically
  deduplicated (QBS-1552).
• Xcode: Support for Xcode 12.0 has been added (QBS-1582).

Qt Support

• The Qt for Android modules have been cleaned up. Support for ARMv5, MIPS and
  MIPS64 targets has been removed (QBS-1496).
• Initial support for Qt6 has been added.

Android Support

• A packageType property has been added to the Android.sdk module which
  allows to create Android App bundles (aab) instead of apk packages
  only.
• A aaptName property has been added to the Android.sdk module which
  allows to use aapt2 (QBS-1562) since aapt has been deprecated.

Documentation

• New bare-metal examples have been added and existing examples have
  been ported to more toolchains.
• A new how-to about cpp.rPaths has been added (QBS-1204).
• Various minor improvements have been made.

Important Bug Fixes

• Building Qt for Android applications as static libraries has been
  fixed (QBS-1545).
• Trailing slashes are no longer removed from Visual Studio environment
  variables (QBS-1551).
• The MSVC cpp module did not use the cpp.distributionIncludePaths
  property (QBS-1572).
• The visual studio generator has been fixed to work with Visual Studio
  16.6 (QBS-1569).

qbs 1.16.0

General

• A new freedesktop module helps UNIX application developers to follow the
  freedesktop.org guidelines.
• The Android module now allows resourcesDir, sourcesDir and assetsDir to be
  specified as relative paths.
• A new ConanfileProbe allows better and more flexible integration of Qbs and
  the Conan package manager.
• A new hostArchitecture property has been added to the qbs module.

Language

• List properties in modules are now merged according to inter-module
  dependencies. This is important when flags like cpp.staticLibraries are
  contributed by multiple modules with dependencies between each other.
  (QBS-1517).
• Dependency matching of multiplexed products is now less strict and does not
  require all multiplex properties to match. For instance, if product A is
  multiplexed over qbs.architecture and qbs.buildVariant while product B is only
  multiplexed over one of these axes, then Qbs no longer fails (QBS-1515).

C/C++ Support

• The Renesas RL78 architecture is now supported in GCC and IAR and the
  toolchains are auto-detected by qbs-setup-toolchains.
• The Renesas RX as well as the RH850, V850, 78K are now supported in IAR and
  the toolchains are auto-detected by qbs-setup-toolchains.
• The MPLAB X32 GCC-based toolchain is now auto-detected on Windows.
• Multiple occurrences of static libraries on the linker command line are now
  pruned and the last instance always wins when using GCC or LLVM-based
  toolchains. This avoids problems with excessively long linker command lines
  (QBS-1273).
• Clang-cl and MSVC toolchains use the compiler frontend instead of the linker
  when linking. The old behavior can be restored by setting cpp.linkerMode to
  "manual". This allows to use sanitizers with clang-cl by passing
  "-fsanitise=xxx" via cpp.driverFlags (QBS-1522).
• The clang-cl toolchain now uses "link.exe" as the default linker.
  "lld-link.exe" can be explicitly selected by setting cpp.linkerVariant to
  "lld" (QBS-1522).
• The MSVC, clang-cl and MinGW toolchains are now automatically detected if the
  profile does not set an explicit installation location, for instance because
  no profile was given.
• Installation of separate debug information can now be enabled and configured
  by simply setting the installDebugInformation and debugInformationInstallDir
  properties in the Application and Library convenience items. This works for
  toolchains based upon GCC, MSVC or clang-cl.
• Xcode version 11.4 is now supported on macOS.

Qt Support

• Qbs now supports Qt 5.14 for Android which comes as a multi-architecture
  package. The qbs-setup-android tool has been updated accordingly (QBS-1497).
• JSON metatype files generated by moc (Qt >= 5.15) are supported by setting
  Qt.core.generateMetaTypesFile and Qt.core.metaTypesInstallDir (QBS-1531).
• Pure debug builds of Qt (>= 5.14) with MinGW are now properly supported. They
  don't have the 'd' suffix (QTBUG-80792).
• The QML type declaration mechanism introduced in Qt 5.15 is now supported by
  the Qt.qml module (QBS-1531).
• Generated qmltypes files are now named according to the product's targetName
  property (QTBUG-82710).

Documentation

• The how-to chapter has been extended with sections about debugging Qbs files
  and about building separate debug information in C++ projects.
• The item and module reference documentation has been improved for the
  cpp.libraryPaths, cpp.dynamicLibraries (QBS-1516), qbs.toolchainType and
  qbs.toolchain properties as well as the Export item and the Library
  convenience item.
• Documentation for various path probes has been added (QBS-1187).
• The README was extended and a CONTRIBUTING file has been added which provides
  useful information for potential contributors. This is important for people
  looking at our github mirror.

Infrastructure

• The Debian Docker image has been removed.
• We are now using ccache and clcache in our CI pipelines to shrink the build
  time.
• Clang-tidy is now used to identify potential problems in the code base and a
  lot of action was taken upon a lot of findings.
• A Docker image for testing Qbs with Android and Qt has been added.

Important Bug Fixes

• Fix nullpointer access and heap-use-after-free error (QBS-1485).
• Select the right instance when Depends.profiles is used on a dependency with
  an aggregator product (QBS-1513).
• Fix crash when specifying a non-existing profile in Depends.profiles
  (QBS-1514).
• Try harder to detect GCC toolchains in qbs-setup-toolchains (QBS-1524).
• Code signing for Core Foundation Bundles on macOS has been fixed.
• Automatic artifact scanning now prefers artifacts from product dependencies if
  multiple candidates are found. This improves dependency tracking in complex
  projects (QBS-1532).
• The grpcIncludePath property in the probufcpp module has been fixed
  (QBS-1542).
• Qbs does no longer crash when accessing a property of a non-existent module in
  "IDE mode".

qbs 1.11.0

General

• Added qbs.targetPlatform and qbs.hostPlatform properties which are scalar versions of
  qbs.targetOS and qbs.hostOS. qbs.targetPlatform is a "write-only" property that can be used
  to set the OS/platform that is being targeted, while qbs.targetOS and qbs.hostOS should
  continue to be used to read the OS/platform that is being targeted.
  qbs.targetOS is also now read-only.
• The "run" functionality as used by the command-line command of the same name now considers
  an executable's library dependencies, that is, it adds the paths they are located in to the
  respective environment variable (e.g. PATH on Windows).

Language

• Modules can now declare target artifacts using the new filesAreTargets property of the
  Group item.
• The Module.setupRunEnvironment script now has a new parameter config. Users can set it via the
  --setup-run-env-config option of the run command. The only value currently supported
  is ignore-lib-dependencies, which turns off the abovementioned injection of library
  dependencies' paths into the run environment.
• Module.setupBuildEnvironment and Module.setupRunEnvironment now have access to the product
  and project variables. With regards to accessing module properties, these script now behave
  like rules, rather than normal properties.
• Added the BinaryFile service for reading and writing binary data files.
• The SubProject item now has a condition property.

C/C++ Support

• Added property cpp.rpathOrigin which evaluates to @loader_path on Darwin and $ORIGIN
  on other Unix-like platforms.

  override conflicting instances.
• It is now possible to add file tags to generated artifacts by setting the new fileTags property
  in a group that has a fileTagsFilter.
• Added new open mode TextFile.Append.
• Added the filePath function to the TextFile class.

• Fix explicitly specified build variant being ignored for Darwin targets (QBS-1202).
• Fix building for the AVR architecture (QBS-1203).

qbs 1.9.0

General

• Setting module property values from the command line can now
  be done per product.
• Introduced new properties qbs.architectures and qbs.buildVariants
  to allow product multiplexing by qbs.architecture and qbs.buildVariant,
  respectively.
• When rebuilding a project, the environment, project file and property
  values are taken from the existing build graph.

Language

• Depends items can now be parameterized to set special module parameters
  for one particular product dependency. The new item type Parameter
  is used to declare such parameters in a module. The new item type
  Parameters is used to allow products to set default values for
  such parameters in their Export item.
• The functions loadExtension and loadFile have been deprecated and
  will be removed in a future version. Use the require function instead.

Custom Rules and Commands

• Artifacts corresponding to the explicitlyDependsOn property
  are now available under this name in rules and commands.
• A rule's auxiliaryInputs and explicitlyDependsOn tags
  are now also matched against rules of dependencies, if these rules are
  creating target artifacts.

  be run even if no artifacts are present that match its input tags.
• Added a new property relevantEnvironmentVariables to the Command class.
  Use it if the command runs an external tool whose behavior can be
  influenced by special environment variables.

C/C++ Support

• Added the cpp.link parameter to enable library dependencies to be
  excluded from linking.
• When pulling in static library products, the new Depends parameter
  cpp.linkWholeArchive can now be specified to force all the library's
  objects into the target binary.
• When pulling in library products, the new Depends parameter
  cpp.symbolLinkMode can now be specified to control how the library
  is linked into the target binary on Apple platforms: specifically,
  whether the library is linked as weak, lazy, reexported, and/or
  upward (see the ld64 man page for more information).
• The property cpp.useCxxPrecompiledHeader, as well as the variants for the
  other languages, now defaults to true.
• The property cpp.cxxLanguageVersion now gets mapped to MSVC's /std option,
  if applicable.

Apple

• Added support for building macOS disk images.

Android

• Product multiplexing is no longer done via profiles, but via architecture,
  employing the new qbs.architectures property (see above). As a result,
  the setup-android command now sets up only one profile, rather than
  one for each architecture.
• Added support for NDK Unified Headers.

Documentation

• Added a "How-to" section.

* Support for the deprecated Transformer item was removed.
Important bug fixes:
* Long paths on Windows are handled (QBS-1068).
* Cyclic module dependencies are detected (QBS-1044).
* The libqbscore soname now includes the minor version,
so that it will not stay the same across ABI changes
(QBS-1002).

qbs 1.6.1

Features:
* Added cpp.linkerWrapper property.
Important bug fixes:
* Fixed a number of bugs evaluating module properties (QBS-845, QBS-1005).
* Fixed x86_64 > x86 cross compiling (QBS-1028).
* Fixed dynamic rules with generated inputs (QBS-1029).

qbs 1.6.0

• Added lex_yacc module.
• Introduced property cpp.systemRunPaths.
• Introduced the ability to check a module's version in a Depends item.
• Introduced cpp.driverFlags, which allows specifying flags to be
  passed to the compiler driver (in any mode), but never the system linker.
• Introduced cpp.linkerMode property to allow selection of the
  correct linker (C driver, C++ driver, or system linker) based on the
  objects being linked.
• Added automatic escaping of arguments passed to the
  cpp.linkerFlags and cpp.platformLinkerFlags properties using the -Wl
  or -Xlinker syntaxes. To revert to the old behavior,
  Project.minimumQbsVersion can be set to a version lower than 1.6.
• Each build configuration now requires a unique name, which
  is specified on the command line in the same place that qbs.buildVariant
  used to be specified. This allows building for multiple configurations
  with the same variant.

This package has no dependencies.
