QT5 port

[jeff...@gmail.com]

HI, I'm looking in to doing a QT5 port. I've been trying to get it started for a while now but I keep getting interrupted by other things. :(

Anyway I thought I'd start a thread on hear so at least how I'm working will be available for a base in case I get lost and someone else decides to do it.

For QT:

QT5 source is https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/qtbase

QT4 sources are:

$ git remote -v
origin    https://gitorious.org/qt/wkhtmltopdf.git (fetch)
origin    https://gitorious.org/qt/wkhtmltopdf.git (push)
upstream    https://gitorious.org/qt/qt.git (fetch)
upstream    https://gitorious.org/qt/qt.git (push)

For wkhtltopdf sources are:

QT5 source is https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf-qt5
QT4 source is https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf

NEED TO KNOW: Are these the correct sources?


The process for QT will be:

1: find all the wkhtmltopdf changes in QT4
2: apply them to QT5
3: run qmake
4: run make
5: fix errors
6: if was error goto 4

NEED TO KNOW: which QT4 branches to compare between origin & upstream?

Currently testing with:

$ git diff upstream/4.8 origin/wk_4.8.6

The process for wkhtmltopdf will be:

1: fix anything related to error fixes in QT5 migration
2: run qmake
3: run make
4: fix errors
5: if was error goto 3
6: party
