替换函数

qmake provides functions for processing the contents of variables during the configuration process. These functions are called replace functions . Typically, they return values that you can assign to other variables. You can obtain these values by prefixing a function with the $$ operator. Replace functions can be divided into built-in functions and function libraries.

内置替换函数

基本替换函数被实现成内置函数。

absolute_path(path[, base])

返回绝对路径的 path .

base is not specified, uses the current directory as the base directory. If it is a relative path, it is resolved relative to the current directory before use.

例如,以下调用返回字符串 "/home/johndoe/myproject/readme.txt" :

message($$absolute_path("readme.txt", "/home/johndoe/myproject"))
					

另请参阅 clean_path() , relative_path() .

basename(variablename)

Returns the basename of the file specified in variablename .

例如:

FILE = /etc/passwd
FILENAME = $$basename(FILE) #passwd
					

cat(filename[, mode])

Returns the contents of filename . You can specify the following options for mode :

  • blob returns the entire contents of the file as one value
  • lines returns each line as a separate value (without line endings)
  • true (default value) and false return file contents as separate values, split according to qmake value list splitting rules (as in variable assignments). If mode is false , values that contain only a newline character are inserted into the list to indicate where line breaks were in the file.

clean_path(path)

返回 path with directory separators normalized (converted to "/") and redundant ones removed, and "."s and ".."s resolved (as far as possible). This function is a wrapper around QDir::cleanPath .

dirname(file)

Returns the directory name part of the specified file. For example:

FILE = /etc/X11R6/XF86Config
DIRNAME = $$dirname(FILE) #/etc/X11R6
					

enumerate_vars

Returns a list of all defined variable names.

escape_expand(arg1 [, arg2 ..., argn])

Accepts an arbitrary number of arguments. It expands the escape sequences \n , \r , \t for each argument and returns the arguments as a list.

注意: If you specify the string to expand literally, you need to escape the backslashes, as illustrated by the following code snippet:

message("First line$$escape_expand(\\n)Second line")
					

find(variablename, substr)

Returns all the values in variablename that match the regular expression substr .

MY_VAR = one two three four
MY_VAR2 = $$join(MY_VAR, " -L", -L) -Lfive
MY_VAR3 = $$member(MY_VAR, 2) $$find(MY_VAR, t.*)
					

MY_VAR2 will contain '-Lone -Ltwo -Lthree -Lfour -Lfive', and MY_VAR3 will contain 'three two three'.

files(pattern[, recursive=false])

Expands the specified wildcard pattern and returns a list of filenames. If recursive is true, this function descends into subdirectories.

first(variablename)

Returns the first value of variablename .

例如,以下调用返回 firstname :

CONTACT = firstname middlename surname phone
message($$first(CONTACT))
					

另请参阅 take_first (), last() .

format_number(number[, options...])

返回 number in the format specified by options . You can specify the following options:

  • ibase=n sets the base of the input to n
  • obase=n sets the base of the output to n
  • width=n sets the minimum width of the output to n . If the output is shorter than width , it is padded with spaces
  • zeropad pads the output with zeroes instead of spaces
  • padsign prepends a space to positive values in the output
  • alwayssign prepends a plus sign to positive values in the output
  • leftalign places the padding to the right of the value in the output

Floating-point numbers are currently not supported.

For example, the following call converts the hexadecimal number BAD to 002989 :

message($$format_number(BAD, ibase=16 width=6 zeropad))
					

fromfile(filename, variablename)

Evaluates filename as a qmake project file and returns the value assigned to variablename .

另请参阅 infile() .

getenv(variablename)

Returns the value of the environment variable variablename . This is mostly equivalent to the $$(variablename) syntax. The getenv function, however, supports environment variables with parentheses in their name.

join(variablename, glue, before, after)

Joins the value of variablename with glue . If this value is not empty, this function prefixes the value with before and suffixes it with after . variablename is the only required field, the others default to empty strings. If you need to encode spaces in glue , before ,或 after , you must quote them.

last(variablename)

Returns the last value of variablename .

例如,以下调用返回 phone :

CONTACT = firstname middlename surname phone
message($$last(CONTACT))
					

另请参阅 take_last (), first() .

list(arg1 [, arg2 ..., argn])

Takes an arbitrary number of arguments. It creates a uniquely named variable that contains a list of the arguments, and returns the name of that variable. You can use the variable to write a loop as illustrated by the following code snippet

for(var, $$list(foo bar baz)) {
    ...
}
					

instead of:

values = foo bar baz
for(var, values) {
    ...
}
					

lower(arg1 [, arg2 ..., argn])

Takes an arbitrary number of arguments and converts them to lower case.

另请参阅 upper() .

member(variablename [, start [, end]])

Returns the slice of the list value of variablename with the zero-based element indices between start and end (inclusive).

start is not given, it defaults to zero. This usage is equivalent to $$first(variablename) .

end 不给定,默认为 start . This usage represents simple array indexing, as exactly one element will be returned.

It is also possible to specify start and end in a single argument, with the numbers separated by two periods.

Negative numbers represent indices starting from the end of the list, with -1 being the last element.

If either index is out of range, an empty list is returned.

end 小于 start , the elements are returned in reverse order.

注意: The fact that the end index is inclusive and unordered implies that an empty list will be returned only when an index is invalid (which is implied by the input variable being empty).

另请参阅 str_member ().

num_add(arg1 [, arg2 ..., argn])

Takes an arbitrary number of numeric arguments and adds them up, returning the sum.

Subtraction is implicitly supported due to the possibility to simply prepend a minus sign to a numeric value to negate it:

sum = $$num_add($$first, -$$second)
					

If the operand may be already negative, another step is necessary to normalize the number:

second_neg = -$$second
second_neg ~= s/^--//
sum = $$num_add($$first, $$second_neg)
					

prompt(question [, decorate])

Displays the specified question , and returns a value read from stdin.

decorate is true (the default), the question gets a generic prefix and suffix identifying it as a prompt.

quote(string)

Converts a whole string into a single entity and returns the result. This is just a fancy way of enclosing the string into double quotes.

re_escape(string)

返回 string with every special regular expression character escaped with a backslash. This function is a wrapper around QRegExp::escape .

relative_path(filePath[, base])

Returns the path to filePath relative to base .

base is not specified, it is the current project directory. If it is relative, it is resolved relative to the current project directory before use.

filePath is relative, it is first resolved against the base directory; in that case, this function effectively acts as $$clean_path().

另请参阅 absolute_path() , clean_path() .

replace(string, old_string, new_string)

Replaces each instance of old_string with new_string in the contents of the variable supplied as string . For example, the code

MESSAGE = This is a tent.
message($$replace(MESSAGE, tent, test))
					

prints the message:

This is a test.
					

sprintf(string, arguments...)

Replaces %1-%9 with the arguments passed in the comma-separated list of function arguments and returns the processed string.

resolve_depends(variablename, prefix)

This is an internal function that you will typically not need.

reverse(variablename)

Returns the values of variablename in reverse order.

section(variablename, separator, begin, end)

Returns a section of the value of variablename . This function is a wrapper around QString::section .

For example, the following call outputs surname :

CONTACT = firstname:middlename:surname:phone
message($$section(CONTACT, :, 2, 2))
					

shadowed(path)

Maps the path from the project source directory to the build directory. This function returns path for in-source builds. It returns an empty string if path points outside of the source tree.

shell_path(path)

Converts all directory separators within path to separators that are compatible with the shell that is used while building the project (that is, the shell that is invoked by the make tool). For example, slashes are converted to backslashes when the Windows shell is used.

另请参阅 system_path() .

shell_quote(arg)

Quotes arg for the shell that is used while building the project.

另请参阅 system_quote() .

size(variablename)

Returns the number of values of variablename .

另请参阅 str_size ().

sort_depends(variablename, prefix)

This is an internal function that you will typically not need.

sorted(variablename)

Returns the list of values in variablename with entries sorted in ascending ASCII order.

Numerical sorting can be accomplished by zero-padding the values to a fixed length with the help of the format_number () 函数。

split(variablename, separator)

Splits the value of variablename into separate values, and returns them as a list. This function is a wrapper around QString::split .

例如:

CONTACT = firstname:middlename:surname:phone
message($$split(CONTACT, :))
					

str_member(arg [, start [, end]])

This function is identical to member (), except that it operates on a string value instead of a list variable, and consequently the indices refer to character positions.

This function can be used to implement many common string slicing operations:

# $$left(VAR, len)
left = $$str_member(VAR, 0, $$num_add($$len, -1))
# $$right(VAR, len)
right = $$str_member(VAR, -$$num, -1)
# $$mid(VAR, off, len)
mid = $$str_member(VAR, $$off, $$num_add($$off, $$len, -1))
# $$mid(VAR, off)
mid = $$str_member(VAR, $$off, -1)
# $$reverse(VAR)
reverse = $$str_member(VAR, -1, 0)
					

注意: In these implementations, a zero len argument needs to be handled separately.

另请参阅 member (), num_add ().

str_size(arg)

Returns the number of characters in the argument.

另请参阅 size() .

system(command[, mode[, stsvar]])

You can use this variant of the system function to obtain stdout from the command and assign it to a variable.

例如:

UNAME = $$system(uname -s)
contains( UNAME, [lL]inux ):message( This looks like Linux ($$UNAME) to me )
					

If you pass stsvar , the command's exit status will be stored in that variable. If the command crashes, the status will be -1, otherwise a non-negative exit code of the command's choosing. Usually, comparing the status with zero (success) is sufficient.

See also the test variant of system() .

system_path(path)

Converts all directory separators within path to separators that are compatible with the shell that is used by the system() functions to invoke commands. For example, slashes are converted to backslashes for the Windows shell.

另请参阅 shell_path() .

system_quote(arg)

Quotes arg for the for the shell that is used by the system() 函数。

另请参阅 shell_quote() .

take_first(variablename)

Returns the first value of variablename and removes it from the source variable.

This provides convenience for implementing queues, for example.

另请参阅 take_last (), first() .

take_last(variablename)

Returns the last value of variablename and removes it from the source variable.

This provides convenience for implementing stacks, for example.

另请参阅 take_first (), last() .

unique(variablename)

Returns the list of values in variablename with duplicate entries removed. For example:

ARGS = 1 2 3 2 5 1
ARGS = $$unique(ARGS) #1 2 3 5
					

upper(arg1 [, arg2 ..., argn])

Takes an arbitrary number of arguments and converts them to upper case.

另请参阅 lower() .

val_escape(variablename)

Escapes the values of variablename in a way that enables parsing them as qmake code.
