Summary

0014760: Specify output dir for QT4_WRAP_UI

Description

It would be nice to have an option to specify an output dir for QT4_WRAP_UI. This way it would be easier to port QMake -> CMake application.

Eg. QMake input:

[...]
UI_DIR = UI/AutoGen
FORMS += UI/UI/BrowseData.ui
[...]

Here is a suggestion for enhancement:

Change current macro into:

macro (QT4_WRAP_UI outfiles )
  QT4_EXTRACT_OPTIONS(ui_files ui_options ${ARGN})

  foreach (it ${ui_files})
    get_filename_component(outfile ${it} NAME_WE)
    get_filename_component(infile ${it} ABSOLUTE)
    set(outfile ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${QT4_WRAP_UI_DIR}/ui_${outfile}.h)
    add_custom_command(OUTPUT ${outfile}
      COMMAND ${QT_UIC_EXECUTABLE}
      ARGS ${ui_options} -o ${outfile} ${infile}
      MAIN_DEPENDENCY ${infile} VERBATIM)
    set(${outfiles} ${${outfiles}} ${outfile})
  endforeach ()

endmacro ()

Typical usage:

set(QT4_WRAP_UI_DIR UI/AutoGen )
file(MAKE_DIRECTORY ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${QT4_WRAP_UI_DIR})
QT4_WRAP_UI(myproject_FORMS_HEADERS ${myproject_FORMS})

Notes
(0035129) Brad King (manager) 2014-02-17 10:57	CMake 3.0 introduces an AUTOUIC feature to replace the need for qt4_wrap_ui. Will that be able to handle this?

(0035131) Mathieu Malaterre (developer) 2014-02-17 11:00	Neat! I'll give it a try when cmake enters debian. thx

(0035133) Stephen Kelly (developer) 2014-02-17 11:29	I don't think AUTOUIC changes anything regarding this in particular. Regarding porting, you might find it easier to change your use of UI_DIR as a porting step.
