lupdate Qt 4.7.1 not working anymore??

Printable View

Hello,

I use Linguist & lupdate/lrelease cycle ever since to update tr() strings in my code for translating.

But with recent Qt 4.7.1 version this does not seem to work anymore? I have a big project with several subdirs, structured like this:
Code:

- MainDir main.pro - Module1 module1.pro - Module2 module2.pro [...] - Main main.pro - resource Program_de.ts [...] Program_de.qm [...]
the Module subdirs being dynamic libraries (DLLs) and Main being the application
Code:

TEMPLATE=app
and the resource dir containing all program resources like translations (ts/qm files), icons etc. Up until now, executing lupdate in main directory or application subdirectory was sufficient to update translation file:
Code:

lupdate Program.pro or lupdate Main.pro
but this does not work anymore with Qt 4.7.1, I get a lot of weird errors like this:
Code:

C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/debug_and_release.prf(66):Function 'eval' is not im plemented C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/debug_and_release.prf(69):Function 'eval' is not im plemented C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/debug_and_release.prf(72):Function 'eval' is not im plemented C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/debug_and_release.prf(75):Function 'eval' is not im plemented C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/debug_and_release.prf(78):Function 'eval' is not im plemented C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/debug_and_release.prf(80):Function 'eval' is not im plemented C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/debug_and_release.prf(82):Function 'eval' is not im plemented C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/debug_and_release.prf(84):Function 'eval' is not im plemented C:/Qt/4.7.1/src/gui/kernel/qactiongroup.h:45: circular inclusion of c:/Qt/4.7.1/ include/QtGui/qaction.h c:/Qt/4.7.1/include/QtGui/qboxlayout.h:1: circular inclusion of C:/Qt/4.7.1/src/ gui/kernel/qboxlayout.h C:/Qt/4.7.1/src/gui/kernel/qgridlayout.h:45: circular inclusion of c:/Qt/4.7.1/i nclude/QtGui/qlayout.h C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/default_post.prf(5):Function 'system' is not implem ented C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/debug_and_release.prf(66):Function 'eval' is not im plemented C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/debug_and_release.prf(69):Function 'eval' is not im plemented C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/debug_and_release.prf(72):Function 'eval' is not im plemented C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/debug_and_release.prf(75):Function 'eval' is not im plemented C:/Qt/4.7.1/mkspecs/features/debug_and_release.prf(78):Function 'eval' is not im
and at the end, not any tr() string in my code was found:
Code:

Updating 'resource/Tracker_de.ts'... Found 0 source text(s) (0 new and 0 already existing) Kept 175 obsolete entries
making any old strings obsolete.

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks

Edit: Systen: Win7 64bit, Qt 4.7.1 32-bit, MS VC 2010

There seems to be a bug open related to this issue:
http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-6587#

Wondering that nobody has probs in this issue though it may affect all multilanguage apps?

What do your .pro files look like?

Re: lupdate Qt 4.7.1 not working anymore??

Hello wysota,

they're fairly standard I think, with TRANSLATIONS variables in .pro file for exe:

Code:

TEMPLATE = app
 
CONFIG(debug, debug|release) {
	TARGET = q1Trackerd
	# OBJECTS_DIR = obj_$$(QMAKESPEC)_$$[QT_VERSION]_debug
	# MOC_DIR = moc_$$(QMAKESPEC)_$$[QT_VERSION]_debug
	DEFINES += QT_DEBUG RLOG_COMPONENT="q1tracker"
	win32 {
		CONFIG += console
		LIBS += ../../bin/TrackerAppd1.lib \
		            ../../3rdparty/rlog-1.4/win32/Debug/rlogd.lib
	}
	unix {
		LIBS += # Path to TrackerApp debug build \
			    # Path to rlog debug build \
	}
	# SOURCES += ../common/debuq/log.cpp 
	# HEADERS += ../common/debuq/log.h 
} else {
	TARGET = q1Tracker
	# OBJECTS_DIR = obj_$$(QMAKESPEC)_$$[QT_VERSION]_release
	# MOC_DIR = moc_$$(QMAKESPEC)_$$[QT_VERSION]_release
	DEFINES += QT_NO_DEBUG_OUTPUT RLOG_COMPONENT="q1tracker"
	win32 {
		LIBS += ../../bin/TrackerApp1.lib
		       # ../3rdparty/rlog-1.4/win32/Release/rlog.lib	
	}
	unix {
		LIBS += # Path to TrackerApp release build \
	}
}
 
DESTDIR = ../../bin
 
RESOURCES = ../resource/common.qrc ../resource/translations.qrc
TRANSLATIONS = ../resource/Tracker_de.ts \
	       ../resource/Tracker_it.ts 
 
INCLUDEPATH = \
	../common/debuq \
	../common/rlog \
	../common/types \
	../common/geoalg \
	../TrackerApp \
 
 
 
QT += core gui
CONFIG += qt warn_on debug_and_release
SOURCES += \
	main.cpp \
	../common/rlog/rlog_def.cpp \
 
win32 {
	RC_FILE = ../resource/appico.rc
	DEFINES += _USE_MATH_DEFINES
}

and so on, this being the pro file for the application that relies on all modules (DLLs).

Thanks for any hint,
AlGaN

Line #52 of your project file is surely invalid. Does your project consist of only two source files?

Hello wysota,

what's wrong with line #52? This is a souce file I include in every sub project (it's source for a logging lib I include in every sub project, residing in a common directory).

No, this is project file only for application (exe) of project, of course there are a lot of other source files in other sub directories (cf the directory structure I mentioned in my first post).

At top level source dir I have sth like this:
Code:

TEMPLATE = subdirs VERSION = 1.2.3.4 CONFIG += ordered qt warn_on debug_and_release SUBDIRS = \ # no dependencies Module1 \ Module2 \ [...] # Dependency: Module1 Module6 \ [...] # application q1Tracker \
Thanks for any hints :)

It ends with a backslash with no continuation in the next line.

They will not be taken into account when generating translations for this project. It might work if you pass -r option to lupdate.
