\qmltype qbs
\inqmlmodule QbsModules
\since Qbs 1.0
\brief Comprises general properties.
The \c qbs module is implicitly loaded in every product. It contains properties of the current
build environment, independent of the used programming languages and toolchains.
\section2 Installation Properties
Typically, you use \l{Group} items to specify the target directories for
installing files. To install a group of files, set the \l{qbs::install}
{qbs.install} property of the Group to \c true. The value of
\l{qbs::installDir}{qbs.installDir} specifies the path to the directory
where the files will be installed. You can specify a base directory for all
installation directories as the value of \l{qbs::installPrefix}
{qbs.installPrefix}.
For example, the following properties specify where a set of QML files and
an application executable are installed on Windows and Linux:
\badcode
Application {
name: "myapp"
Group {
name: "Runtime resources"
files: "*.qml"
qbs.install: true
qbs.installDir: condition: qbs.targetOS.contains("unix")
? "share/myapp" : "resources"
}
Group {
name: "The App itself"
fileTagsFilter: "application"
qbs.install: true
qbs.installDir: "bin"
}
qbs.installPrefix: condition: qbs.targetOS.contains("unix")
? "usr/local" : "MyApp"
}
\endcode
On Windows, the QML files will ultimately get installed in
\c{MyApp\resources} and the application executable in \c MyApp\bin,
for instance under \c{C:\Program Files}. On Linux, the QML files will be
installed in \c /usr/local/share/myapp and the executable in
\c /usr/local/bin.
By default, \l{qbs::installRoot}{qbs.installRoot} creates the
\c install-root directory in the build directory for packaging the binaries
before installation. It is a temporary directory that is usually not
available when the application is run, and it should therefore not be set in
the project files. You can override the default value from the command line,
as described in \l{Installing Files}.
\section2 Multiplexing Properties
The following properties are specific to \l{Multiplexing}
{product multiplexing}:
\list
\li \l{qbs::}{architectures}
\li \l{qbs::}{buildVariants}
\li \l{qbs::}{profiles}
\endlist
*/
/*!
\qmlproperty string qbs::configurationName
\since Qbs 1.6
\readonly
The name of the current build configuration.
The build configuration is set via the command line parameter \c
config. For more information, see \l{build}{build}.
\defaultvalue \c{"default"}
*/
/*!
\qmlproperty string qbs::buildVariant
The name of the build variant for the current build.
Possible values are \c{"debug"}, \c{"release"} and \c{"profiling"}.
A debug build usually contains additional debug symbols that are needed for
debugging the application and has optimizations turned off. A profiling
build usually contains debug symbols and has optimizations turned on. This
is useful for profiling tools or when you need to retain debug symbols
in a release build. A release build is a build without debug information and
with optimizations enabled.
\defaultvalue \c{"release"} if
\l{qbs::configurationName}{qbs.configurationName} is \c{"release"}. Otherwise
\c{"debug"}
*/
/*!
\qmlproperty bool qbs::debugInformation
Whether to generate debug information.
\defaultvalue \c{true} if \l{qbs::buildVariant}{qbs.buildVariant} is \c{"debug"} or
\c{"profiling"}. Otherwise \c{false}.
*/
/*!
\qmlproperty bool qbs::enableDebugCode
Whether to enable debug functionality in the product. Not to be confused
with generation of debug symbols or the code optimization level.
The property changes the following things when enabled:
\list
\li Passes a flag to the Windows linker to link against a debug
Windows CRT (common runtime) library
(for example /MTd instead of /MT)
\endlist
The property changes the following things when disabled:
\list
\li Passes the \c{NDEBUG} define to the compiler
\endlist
Typically, this property is enabled for debug builds and disabled for
release or profiling builds.
\defaultvalue \c{true} for debug builds, \c{false} otherwise.
*/
/*!
\qmlproperty string qbs::optimization
The general type of optimization that should be performed by all toolchains.
Allowed values are:
\list
\li \c{"fast"}
\li \c{"none"}
\li \c{"small"}
\endlist
\defaultvalue \c{"none"} if \l{qbs::buildVariant}{qbs.buildVariant} is \c{"debug"}.
Otherwise \c{"fast"}.
*/
/*!
\qmlproperty string qbs::targetPlatform
\since 1.11
The OS you want to build the project for.
This property is typically set in a profile or for a particular product
where the target OS is always known (such as an Apple Watch app written in
native code).
For example, a profile used for building for the iOS Simulator platform will have this
property set to the \c ios-simulator value:
\code
profiles.xcode-iphonesimulator.qbs.targetPlatform: "ios-simulator"
\endcode
You should generally treat this property as \e{write-only} and avoid using
it to test for the current target OS. Instead, use the \l{qbs::}{targetOS}
property for conditionals.
\section2 Relation between targetPlatform and targetOS
This table describes the possible values and matching between the \c targetPlatform
and the \l{qbs::}{targetOS} properties:

/*!
\qmlproperty string qbs::architecture

\qmlproperty stringList qbs::toolchain
Contains the list of string values describing the toolchain and toolchain
family that is used to build a project.
This property is deduced from the \l{qbs::}{toolchainType} property and is typically
used to test for a particular toolchain or toolchain family in conditionals:
\code
Properties {
// flags for GCC
condition: qbs.toolchain.contains("gcc")
cpp.commonCompilerFlags: ...
}
Properties {
// flags for MSVC
condition: qbs.toolchain.contains("msvc")
cpp.commonCompilerFlags: ...
}
\endcode
Unlike \l{qbs::}{toolchainType}, which contains a single value, \c qbs.toolchain
is a string list which also contains the toolchain family. This allows to make
conditions and checks simpler. For example, instead of:
\code
(qbs.toolchainType === "xcode" || qbs.toolchainType === "clang" || qbs.toolchainType === "gcc")
\endcode
use:
\code
qbs.toolchain.contains("gcc")
\endcode
since XCode, GCC and Clang belong to the \c "gcc" family.
\section2 Relation between toolchainType and toolchain

and the \c toolchain properties:

/*!
\qmlproperty string qbs::toolchainType
\since Qbs 1.11
The toolchain that is going to be used for this build.
For example, to build a project using the \c "clang" toolchain, simply do
\code
qbs build qbs.toolchainType:clang
\endcode
You should generally treat this property as \e{write-only} and avoid using
it to test for the current toolchain. Instead, use the \l{qbs::}{toolchain}
property for conditionals.
Typical values include: \c{"gcc"}, \c{"clang"}, \c{"clang-cl"}, \c{"mingw"},
\c{"msvc"}, and \c{"xcode"}. Also see \l{Relation between toolchainType and toolchain}.
By default, \c qbs.toolchainType is automatically detected based on the
\l{qbs::}{targetOS} property:

\qmlproperty stringList qbs::targetOS
\readonly
Contains the list of string values describing the OS and OS family that is
used to build a project.
This property is calculated based on the \l{qbs::}{targetPlatform} property and is typically
used to test for a particular OS or OS family in conditionals:
\code
Group {
// Includes all Unix-like platforms, such as: Linux, BSD, Apple platforms and others.
condition: qbs.targetOS.contains("unix")
files: ...
}
Group {
// Includes all Apple platforms, such as macOS, iOS, and iOS Simulator.
condition: qbs.targetOS.contains("darwin")
files: ...
}
Group {
// Includes only macOS
condition: qbs.targetOS.contains("macos")
files: ...
}
\endcode
Avoid using \l{qbs::}{targetPlatform} for this purpose. For example, instead of:
\code
qbs.targetPlatform === "macos" || qbs.targetPlatform === "ios" || qbs.targetPlatform === "tvos" || qbs.targetPlatform === "watchos"
\endcode
use
\code

However, in some cases using \l{qbs::}{targetPlatform} would be acceptable, such as
when the resulting condition would be simpler while still being correct:
\code
qbs.targetPlatform === "linux"
\endcode
versus
\code
qbs.targetOS.contains("linux") && !qbs.targetOS.contains("android")

is usually not set from within project files.
