[Development] Modules and skip

[mark diener]

Hello:

The following table lists the Qt essentials.

I am building Qt from scratch and I am having a bit of trouble finding

where the modules that I can remove from the build are located.

Generally in configure, there are -skip directives

For example:

configure -skip qtserialport

Where can I find the comprehensive list of names and what I can skip on
configure?

How can I remove qtnetwork when the NetworkAccessManager seems to be tied
to the

gman = view()->engine()->NetworkAccessmanager() ;

This implies the network code is not properly isolated from the GUI layer.
How to break

this linkage without major source code changes?

Thanks,

Mark

If you use qmake <http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmake-manual.html#qmake> to build
your projects, the Qt Core <http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtcore-index.html> and Qt
GUI <http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtgui-index.html> modules are included by
default. To link only against Qt Core, add the following line to your .pro
file:

QT -= gui

On Windows, if you do not use qmake
<http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmake-manual.html#qmake> or other build tools such
as CMake <http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/cmake-manual.html>, you also need to link
against the qtmain library.
 Qt Add-Ons

*Qt Add-On* modules bring additional value for specific purposes. These
modules may only be available on some development platform. Many add-on
modules are either feature-complete and exist for backwards compatibility,
or are only applicable to certain platforms. Each add-on module specifies
its compatibility promise separately.

The Qt installers include the option of downloading the add-ons. For more
information, visit the Getting Started with Qt
<http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/gettingstarted.html> page.
