I've updated Qt 6.2.x to 6.2.11, the latest opensource LTS release; noting that this is released 12 months after the commercial LTS code is released. webengine is still based on Qt 6.2.6 due to issues getting the newer webengine to work.

Hey Dave,

  Gave Scribus a try and it is quite impressive! It mostly works from what I can tell so far... a few issues:

1. get an error window on start: There is a problem loading 1 of 47 plugins, 'importpd.dll'. The console also says: Error loading plugin: dlopen rc=2 extra=POPPL133
Using PMDLL to look at importpd.dll shows a dependency on poppl133.dll which I don't have. Do you have it?

2 Console show message at start 'UnicodeSearchModule: error reading unicode!'

3. Console shows message at start: No valid renderframes found - using defaults! It turns out that on the 'External Tools' settings page in 'Preferences', the render frames settings are blank. I added them (by looking at Scribus 1.4.6 settings and going to the same directory in Scribus 1.7.0).

4. When shutting down I would see a message: Cannot write file C:/Home/.local/share/scribus/charpallette.ucp. Turned out the directory did not exist, so I created it manually.

 Thanks for building it!

Regards,

poppl133.dll is at https://smedley.id.au/tmp/poppl133.zip

I'll have to investigate the other issues in my spare(lol) time... I mainly built this as one of the main dev's is an ex-OS/2 guy from WAY back, and he pinged me So thanks Craig

I'll probably bump the bits of Qt 6.2 that can be, to 6.2.11 - maybe tomorrow and release that with the patches.

Plugins working now - need to work on packaging and making it portable, so it can be moved out of /scribus

https://smedley.id.au/tmp/scribus-1.7.0svn-os2-qt6-6.8.x-20250118.zip - needs Qt 6.8.x

I'll try sort out the packaging either this evening or tomorrow.

Edit: Package above is update has been updated and should be portable now Packaging should also be a bit less *nixy

No POPUPLOG for any of the examples with the 'Maximum call stack size exceeded' error. Tried the 'emxstack' size increase trick, but it made no difference on any example I tried...

I need to review the code that triggers the 'stack size exceeded' error - I think it may be a furphy...

Hi Paul,

F.e Tea comiled fine, but doodle or some other progs i get this error..

Looks the same as the TRP I was getting with qmlcachegen.ex, which stemmed in qhash.h - will have to see what changed compared to earlier Qt builds...

Is there anything in popuplog.os2? I wonder if a larger stack would help for the quick controls and maybe other stuff. IIRC, the default is 1MB, which you'd think would be fine but any recursion like what was likely happening to git will blow through a MB.

Easy enough to check with something like:

Code: [Select]

emxstack -s8096 executablename.exe

Hi Paul,

I tried to compile some progs but i only get this when running qmake

I copied in the v6.2.10 dir
Will try later in a clean dir...

Looks like the same trap I was getting with qmlcachegen.exe when building qtdeclarative.... Can you upload the exceptq txt?

Thanks Paul. This one is a mixed bag, I did a quick test of some apps (with 6.2.10 Webengine) and Dooble doesn't work (silent exit) nor does focuswriter or LibreCAD or Tea or Tetzle. Media-Downloader, Soduku, ppineapplepicture, and QTPasswordgenerator do work. I'll try some examples later today...

Thanks Dave, I won't be hugely surprised if apps built against Qt 6.2 don't work with Qt 6.8 libraries - I always expected apps might need to be rebuilt, just wanted to see how far I could push things!

OK... took a little longer than expected, and still a bit hacky (I reverted https://github.com/psmedley/qt6-base-os2/blob/6.8.x/src/gui/text/unix/qfontconfigdatabase.cpp to the Qt 6.6.x version to avoid a crash) and building qtdeclarative is a PITA with the previously reported SIGABRT.. but....

https://smedley.id.au/tmp/qt6-6.8.1-os2-20250115.zip is now available. I've only tried a couple of the examples, and I haven't tried dooble with this (by copying over the Qt 6.2.x components).

YMMV

OK, that got me further, but then cmake install doesn't complete due to missing targets.

Attached is a trap from a debug qmlcachegen

This helped.... it showed the free() call which is troubling libc came from:

Code: [Select]

0013F468  1CD8CF17   QT6QMLCO  0001:000ACF17  qhash.h#1524 __ZN6QQmlJS15ContextualTypesD1Ev$w$lTwuLaOHst85hU6b4 + 87 0001:000ACE90 (U:\dev\qt6-declarative-os2-6.8.x\src\qmlcompiler\qqmljsimporter.cpp)

Looking at qhash.h#1524: ie https://github.com/psmedley/qt6-base-os2/blob/6.8.x/src/corelib/tools/qhash.h#L1524
it has:

Code: [Select]

1523:        if (d && !d->ref.deref())
1524:            delete d;
For the purposes of getting qtdeclarative built - I've just commented these two lines - will see if it completes!

Of course, I have no idea why this is problematic or how to 'correctly' fix it.

OK, https://github.com/psmedley/qt6-base-os2/commit/ee029c7866a242ef8d8cbb1e6c7d393b9ef7d6ab fixes the issue with filepaths. Not really sure why this was required in 6.8.x but not earlier...

Edit: qtdeclarative from 6.8.x has got a LOT further now, and hasn't deleted any files in the root directory of my c:
