When building Ladybird with the Qt UI framework on Windows, we were
getting the following warning in the CMake target post build step:
"Could not find any translations in <binary_dir>\vcpkg_installed\
x64-windows\translations\Qt6 (developer build?)". We now tell the
deploy script that we have no translations, which removes the warning.
We set bInheritHandles to TRUE for all child processes we spawn. Some
of the types of objects that support handle inheritence is all of the
STD handles (STD_INPUT_HANDLE, STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE, STD_ERROR_HANDLE) and
the console screen buffer. This means if Ladybird and all the child
service processes it launches/communicates with our console apps, only
a single console needs to be allocated and all child process output
their logs to that single console.
The function currently has 2 purposes: (1) To copy dependent dlls for
executables to output binary directory. This ensures that these helper
processes can be ran after a build given not all DLLs from vcpkg libs
get implicitly copied to the bin folder. (2) Allow fully background
and/or GUI processes to use the Windows Subsystem. This prevents
unnecessarily launching a console for the process, as we either require
no user interaction or the user interaction is all handled in the GUI.
We currently duplicate a lot of code to handle application/context menus
and actions. The goal here is to hold the data for the menus and actions
in LibWebView. Each UI will then be able to generate menus from the data
on-the-fly.
The structures added here are meant to support generic and checkable
actions, action groups, submenus, etc.
The BUILD_RPATH/INSTALL_RPATH CMake infrastructure is not supported
on Windows, but we want to ensure Ladybird executables are runnable
after the build phase so there can be an efficient dev loop.
lagom_copy_runtime_dlls() can be used by executable targets so all
their dependent dlls are copied to their output directory in their
post build step.
We currently compile the Qt event loop files multiple times, for every
target which wants to use them. This patch moves these to LibWebView as
a central location to avoid this.
