QtService with QT6

[lazaj]

I used QtService with Qt5 on Mac Intel. Qt official support for Mac ARM start with version 6.x. Do you support Qt6 ?

Salute, I have already port it to Qt6 so let me know about... Skycoder42, many thanks to you )

[Skycoder42]

@scaramancha would you mind creating a PR for Qt 6 support?

[scaramancha]

Salute, I will do this on the next week, sorry for delay ...

@scaramancha Could you share the upgrade ? I'm changing too, but currently the upgrade is just completed for MacOS and Windows, other backends is still under investing because Qt Android has a lot of changes.

@Skycoder42 I am building QtService with Qt6, but I get a problem, when integrating the new libs to my project(Cmake Qt project) and it said that cannot find Service through find_package, because it is missing .cmake files in Qt's cmake folder, But I don't understand how to generate these .cmake files.

@Skycoder42 I am building QtService with Qt6, but I get a problem, when integrating the new libs to my project(Cmake Qt project) and it said that cannot find Service through find_package, I was explained that it is missing .cmake files in Qt's cmake folder, But I don't understand how to generate these .cmake files ?

Finally I can generate .cmake file, I had to use https://github.com/qt/qtbase/blob/6.3.0/util/cmake/run_pro2cmake.py) tool to convert QtService from qmake to cmake then use /Qt/6.3.0/bin/qt-configure-module tool to generate the .cmake, the result is quite good, but still need to edit manually a bit. I'm not sure this is official solution to do that or not, but now I can find Qt6Service by find_package()

And QtService still work very stable with Qt6. Thanks @Skycoder42

@scaramancha Have you had a chance to look at the Qt6 code?

[stephenlang84]

@DeceitfulSloth @lazaj I forked/updated a version that works with Qt6. I didn’t create a pull request to the root repository of @Skycoder42 because it would take more effort to support both versions of Qt5 and Qt6. https://github.com/stephenlang84/QtService

@stephenlang84 thanks for sharing that will be very useful.
