Qt6/Requirements

Buildsystem Requirements

Android

Must have features:

• build any/all Android ABIs (armv7a, armv8, x86 & x86_64) in one go. Of course the user should be able to specify which one(s) he is going to use.
• build Java bits:
  • build Qt java files
  • merge & build project java files
• build & sign an .apk without using additional buildsystem(s) as we do now in qmake, but using the Android tools directly (as gradle & qbs is doing).
• build & sign an .aab (Android App Bundle), same as above, it should do that using the Android tools directly.
• config the most important bits for .apk Android manifest from within the buildsystem file
  • application/activity name
  • package versions
  • SDK versions
  • additional permissions
• config the most important bits for .aab config files

Nice to have features:

• config the most of the apk Android manifest fields within the buildsystem file
• config the most important bits for .aab config files
