Download Mac version

[floZx]

Hello, is it possible to have a mac version for download?

[foldynl]

Hi,

unfortunately, there is no official DMG package. It is a long story about the support of Mac. A short story is that I have no Apple's HW to test it.

What I currently know:

1. Qlog can be compiled on Mac
2. Internally, I have DMG package prepared by GitHub but I know that the package is not working now. Unfortunately, I don't know why.

If you have any experience you could help me to debug it.

Hi,
I can try to provide a dmg but when compiling I get an error: Failure to find: res/flags/flags.qrc
I don't have any experience with QT but I can try to understand.

[foldynl]

You have to clone the QLog repo by command below because QLog repo contains a git-submodule (flags)

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/foldynl/QLog.git

It would be great if you could help me with this. I've added a DMG file that GITHub creates as a result of Git Action.

You can find

• the zip file with DMG - https://github.com/foldynl/QLog/releases/download/v0.15.0/qlog.zip (it is reported that it immediately crashes)
• GitHub Action for DMG - https://github.com/foldynl/QLog/blob/master/.github/workflows/macOSBuild.yml.

The app error in GITHub DMG is:

• Library missing","details":["(terminated at launch; ignore backtrace)"],"reasons":["Library not loaded: @rpath/QtDBus.framework/Versions/A/QtDBus"

I don't know git action but apparently QTDBus is missing.

Compile on my iMac now work. I will do some tests and I can try to provide DMG (Intel and M1) to make them available.

It will be great. The problem is that I make a release approximately once a month. It will be necessary to figure out how to release packages without your assistance. It is a need to automate the release process therefore I use GitHub Actions. Please, are you able to review why the Action generate invalid packages?

Maybe this is the solution - source QT homepage

D-Bus and macOS

The QtDBus module defaults to dynamically loading the libdbus-1 library on macOS. That means applications linking against the QtDBus module will load even on macOS systems that do not have the libraries, but they will fail to connect to any D-Bus server and they will fail to open a server using QDBusServer.

To use D-Bus functionality, you need to install the libdbus-1 library, for example through Homebrew, Fink or MacPorts. You may want to include those libraries in your application's bundle if you're deploying to other systems. Additionally, note that there is no system bus on macOS and that the session bus will only be started after launchd is configured to manage it.

You may need to add this to the script:
brew install dbus-glib and cp /usr/local/lib/libdbus-1.dylib qlog.app/Contents/Frameworks/libdbus-1.dylib

[foldynl]

please, could you test a new package?

Unfortunately there is still a problem with QtDBus

[foldynl]

that's bad news. I'll try to think of something, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to do anything with it without proper HW (or help).

[foldynl]

QtDBus has been added - to be honest, really don't know why it should be added because QLog does not use it. Maybe it is dependency of some other library under Qt6

please, could you try a new build ?

https://github.com/foldynl/QLog/releases/download/v0.15.0/qlog_new2.zip

[floZx]

Ok, now it's ok for QtDBus. New missing library:

Termination Reason:    Namespace DYLD, Code 1 Library missing
Library not loaded: @rpath/QtQuickWidgets.framework/Versions/A/QtQuickWidgets

[foldynl]

it really doesn't make sense to me why I should use this module. QLog doesn't call anything like that. I think that some QT libraries are prepared differently than under Windows or Linux.

A new DMG is being prepared. It should be in 20 minutes. I will send you another zip...

Do you know is there some way to find out what all is missing there?

[foldynl]

thanks for your patience...another zip file

https://github.com/foldynl/QLog/releases/download/v0.15.0/qlog_new3.zip

[floZx]

Other missing librarie:

• libicui18n.71
  and it seems to work... 🤞

[foldynl]

another attempt

https://github.com/foldynl/QLog/releases/download/v0.15.0/qlog_new4.zip

to be honest, , I don't understand at all what I'm doing (fixing) now

[floZx]

The app is working now.
Good job.

[foldynl]

thanks for the confirmation and for patience.I was kind of losing hope that it would ever work. Just for my curiosity - are you running M1/M2 or Intel?

[floZx]

I tried the app on Intel and M1 (with Rosetta).

[foldynl]

Perfect...thank you.
