tdesktop 🚀 - Fail build sources from Git (Telegram.pro)

Go to Build menu -> Run qmake

same error

sl1pkn07 on 16 Aug 2014

follow building instructions, you have to apply patch and build Qt yourself
run qmake for all subprojects then build Telegram

ba0f3 on 16 Aug 2014

i follow the instructions, but in console. without qtcreator. using qmake. qtcreator is not mandatory. because qtcreator is a GUI for qmake and other tools from Qt project, include debugger and code editor.

the patch is reported to Qt dev team? you can post the liks of patch/bugreports?

greetings

ba0f3 on 16 Aug 2014

You should first build MetaStyle and MetaLang projects, in the specified locations (because Telegram.pro has relative paths to MetaStyle and MetaLang prebuid steps), these two projects will produce art/sprite_*.png and not found sources from Generated Files. I know, that doing everything from the https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop/blob/master/QTCREATOR.md step by step should do the job, don't know about the other approaches.

telegramdesktop on 16 Aug 2014

@rgv151 i mean patch in upstream Qt repository/bugtracker.

@telegramdesktop , yes, i know the steps

qmake MetaStyle.pro CONFIG+=debug
make
qmake MetaEmoji.pro CONFIG+=debug
make
qmake MetaLang.pro CONFIG+=debug
make
qmake Telegram.pro CONFIG+=debug
make

but this last steps fail with

make: *** No rule to make target '../../Telegram/Resources/style.txt', needed by 'GeneratedFiles/style_auto.cpp'. Alto.

i make changes in all .pro files:

I want use a Qt provides by distribution (shared method). then

to change bundled Qt to system Qt

sed 's|\./\.\./\.\./Libraries/QtStatic/qtbase/include|/usr/include/qt|g' -i *.pro

change hardcoded static libs to shared lib in Telegram.pro (https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop/blob/master/Telegram/Telegram.pro#L259)

sed 's|\./\.\./\.\./\.\./Libraries/QtStatic/qtbase/plugins/platforminputcontexts/libcomposeplatforminputcontextplugin.a|/usr/lib/qt/plugins/platforminputcontexts/libcomposeplatforminputcontextplugin.so|g' -i Telegram.pro

to fix "make: *** No rule to make target '../../Telegram/Resources/style.txt', needed by 'GeneratedFiles/style_auto.cpp'. Alto."

sed 's|\.\./\.\./Telegram/||g' -i Telegram.pro

fix hardcoded #include in SourceFiles/gui/text.h (https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop/blob/master/Telegram/SourceFiles/gui/text.h#L22)

sed 's|"\.\./\.\./\.\./QtStatic/qtbase/src/gui/text/qfontengine_p.h"|<private/qfontengine_p.h>|g' -i SourceFiles/gui/text.h

(optional) remove FixMake{32}.sh because my distro don't want build with static mode
(https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop/blob/master/Telegram/Telegram.pro#L71
https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop/blob/master/Telegram/Telegram.pro#L74)

sed -e 71d -e 74d -i Telegram.pro

MetaStyle, MetaEmoji, MetaLang build ok. but Telegram fail in this point:

http://sl1pkn07.wtf/paste/view/3f078104

I supposed is because need Qt patched from us. but that paches is not tracked by Qt devs (or yes?)

greetings

sl1pkn07 on 16 Aug 2014

No, it is my custom Qt patch, it is not needed to Qt anyway. There are some build rules for creating style_auto.cpp from style.txt by MetaStyle, I don't know, why it is not executed the way you build it.

telegramdesktop on 16 Aug 2014

the missing files posted in the first post is created by Telegram.pro

EDIT: I test remove all

INCLUDEPATH += ./../../Libraries/QtStatic/qtbase/include/QtGui/5.3.1/QtGui\
           ./../../Libraries/QtStatic/qtbase/include/QtCore/5.3.1/QtCore\
           ./../../Libraries/QtStatic/qtbase/include\

in .pro files and in Telegram.pro, add in https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop/blob/master/Telegram/Telegram.pro#L1

QT += core gui network multimedia widgets core-private gui-private

same error like my last pastebin

greetings

sl1pkn07 on 16 Aug 2014

any notice of fix?

greetings

sl1pkn07 on 26 Nov 2014

why? still can't build from git with shared (system) Qt5

sl1pkn07 on 22 Aug 2015

lol, after more than a year you are still unable to build it :smile:

Issue is still present in git master (0.9.6).
This is sad that it has not been fixed in years :).

michel-briand on 17 Oct 2015

@michel-briand There is no way to build this project with shared (system) Qt5, you can try for decades. I will try to help you if you have troubles with building the project according to build instructions provided

telegramdesktop on 17 Oct 2015

@telegramdesktop thank you for answering quickly. What does not fit with default Qt5 ? Are you using these differences to slow people wanting to help on telegram :) ?

michel-briand on 17 Oct 2015

@michel-briand Of course!

Well, as you can see in the error message above, at least default Qt headers do not allow me to use some inner Qt stuff, which is needed for quick custom text render. And many other small features and fixes that I use are done in Qt patch only.

telegramdesktop on 17 Oct 2015

Then why un send the parches to Qt upstream?

sl1pkn07 on 17 Oct 2015

@sl1pkn07 Because they don't need them? Most of the changes are specific for tdesktop and not needed in any other project.

telegramdesktop on 17 Oct 2015

I have a similar issue on Ubuntu 14.04, and have followed the patch instructions as per the md file. qmake on Telegraph fails with

The qt build failed with a missing header in qtbase/src/plugins/platforminputcontexts/compose/ called xkbcommon/xkbcommon.h The files exist in
qtbase/src/plugins/platforminputcontexts/fcitx/xkbcommon/ and it builds successfuly when they are copied to /common

I suspect that the patch may have failed somehow ( although there were no errors, apart from some whitespace warnings) Is there a simple check to confirm that the patch was correct?

sugruedes on 26 Oct 2015

@sugruedes This errors in build happens because the custom build steps were not executed or have failed or been misconfigured (MetaStyle should generate "GeneratedFiles/style_classes.h", "GeneratedFiles/style_auto.h", "GeneratedFiles/style_classes.cpp", "GeneratedFiles/style_auto.cpp", "GeneratedFiles/numbers.cpp" and MetaLang should generate "GeneratedFiles/lang_auto.h" and "GeneratedFiles/lang_auto.cpp").

Did you build them and did you build them in the paths, that are specified in md?

telegramdesktop on 26 Oct 2015

Thank you! :-) I corrected the paths and ran qmake for MetaLang and MetaStyle and the files have now been generated. The main build is now working.

Thanks again.

sugruedes on 26 Oct 2015

I think there should be a better solution then statically linking QT5 to solve design needs. In my humble opinion there should be a dynamical alternative. As well as a configure script to configure various options and platforms dependencies. I am used to this principle for some decades and it is used so in the majority of GNU/Linux based software.

Though I am currently using the statically linked binary and Telegram is a nice piece of Software and I like it. Sadly I can not package it for Fedora Linux until the linking is dynamically.

Following the directions at: Build instructions for Qt Creator 3.5.1 under Ubuntu 12.04

I'm running into the same issue.
Have gone through the directions twice even the custom patched static Qt build.

No build errors with MetaLang or MetaStyle, however Telegram errors out:

Telegram.pro should call MetaStyle and MetaLang with some params and they should generate TBuild/tdesktop/Telegram/GeneratedFiles/lang_auto.cpp and the others. Are they there?

john-preston on 26 Mar 2016

I see that, and sadly they are not there:

Going to try something I have done on past projects, ran into simular issues on a clients project.

I added:
message("Current Path is:")
message($$PWD)

Project MESSAGE: Current Path is:
Project MESSAGE: /home/bob/TBuild/tdesktop/Telegram

The commands in the pro file I am focused on are:

style_auto_cpp.target = ./GeneratedFiles/style_auto.cpp
style_auto_cpp.depends = FORCE
style_auto_cpp.commands = mkdir -p ./../../Telegram/GeneratedFiles && ./../DebugStyle/MetaStyle -classes_in ./../../Telegram/Resources/style_classes.txt -classes_out ./../../Telegram/GeneratedFiles/style_classes.h -styles_in ./../../Telegram/Resources/style.txt -styles_out ./../../Telegram/GeneratedFiles/style_auto.h -path_to_sprites ./../../Telegram/SourceFiles/art/
style_auto_cpp.depends = ./../../Telegram/Resources/style.txt

going to move the command to the a bash file, and hard code the paths

style_auto_cpp.commands = $$PWD/build_linux.sh

Not sure it will fix the issue, but I have had luck with this in the past as the ".commands" has had path issues in the past.

tk421gmx on 26 Mar 2016

Note, I was able to get past this issue making a SH file (below), but now getting 69 linker errors while trying to link to: qsslsocket_openssl_symbols.o

Seems its not liking the object file, I will try recompiling qt and see if that resolves (any thoughts while I wait for it to compile and try again?)

When I ran QMake, it complained about the auto generated files missing.
So I made a bash file to call the binaries - NOTE no matter what i did to the pro file I could not get it to auto generate.

#! /bin/bash
echo "Generating files"

BASEDIR=$(dirname $0)
RDIR=$BASEDIR/Resources
GDIR=$BASEDIR/GeneratedFiles

mkdir -p $BASEDIR/GeneratedFiles

#styles
$BASEDIR/../DebugStyle/MetaStyle -classes_in $RDIR/style_classes.txt -classes_out $GDIR/style_classes.h -styles_in $RDIR/style.txt -styles_out $GDIR/style_auto.h -path_to_sprites $BASEDIR/SourceFiles/art/

#lang
$BASEDIR/../DebugLang/MetaLang -lang_in $RDIR/lang.strings -lang_out $GDIR/lang_auto

Then when I tried to compile I got a ton of undefined reference to for the SSL libs.

I modified the Qt static build from

OPENSSL_LIBS='/usr/local/ssl/lib/libssl.a /usr/local/ssl/lib/libcrypto.a' ./configure -release -force-debug-info -opensource -confirm-license -qt-zlib -qt-libpng -qt-libjpeg -qt-freetype -qt-harfbuzz -qt-pcre -qt-xcb -qt-xkbcommon-x11 -no-opengl -static -openssl-linked -nomake examples -nomake tests
make -j4
sudo make -j4 install

to

OPENSSL_LIBS='/usr/local/ssl/lib/libssl.a /usr/local/ssl/lib/libcrypto.a' 
./configure -debug -force-debug-info -opensource -confirm-license -qt-zlib -qt-libpng -qt-libjpeg -qt-freetype -qt-harfbuzz -qt-pcre -qt-xcb -qt-xkbcommon-x11 -no-opengl -static -openssl-linked -nomake examples -nomake tests
make -j4
sudo make -j4 install

I had a successful build in debug :)

@trazomtg why are you asking about qupzilla here? %)

john-preston on 14 Oct 2016

👍1

Why¿???????

This issue is still not fixed¡!!!

sl1pkn07 on 7 Nov 2016

Create a new one and try to build it again (from the beginning, step by step)

auchri on 7 Nov 2016

@sl1pkn07 How this issue can be fixed? There is even no Telegram.pro anymore, this one is completely outdated.

john-preston on 7 Nov 2016

👍1

still use a patched (without send patches to upstream) Qt?

sl1pkn07 on 7 Nov 2016

😄2

@sl1pkn07 Yes, Qt won't accept the patches that are specific for Telegram Desktop.

john-preston on 8 Nov 2016

@john-preston Why won't they? And why does Telegram have to rely on these patches?

rmoog on 14 Nov 2016

@rmoog because they're not needed for any other project I guess, at least not in the way I've developed them. It doesn't have to, it just is written that way, using Qt private APIs, because it works faster that way. Perhaps someone else can write some other client without patched Qt (someone even did, it is called Cutegram), you can test it and decide if you like it better.

john-preston on 14 Nov 2016

@john-preston For what are those APIs used? Text rendering?

stek29 on 14 Nov 2016

@stek29 Yes, the main thing is text dimensions counting and rendering. There are plenty of others, you can look through the diff after applying the patch.
