PathProbe

Detailed Description

Finds macOS frameworks that have the specified file names.

By default, FrameworkProbe searches for frameworks in ~/Library/Frameworks, /usr/local/lib, /Library/Frameworks, and in /System/Library/Frameworks.

Also, if qbs.sysroot is specified (for example, when compiling using XCode SDK), the probe searches in the sysroot/System/Library/Frameworks folder first.

For example, a simple FrameworkProbe that searches for the Foundation framework can be used as follows:

 import qbs.Probes
 Product {
     Depends { name: "cpp"; }
     Probes.FrameworkProbe {
         id: foundationProbe
         names: ["Foundation"]
     }
     cpp.frameworkPaths: foundationProbe.found ? [foundationProbe.path] : []
 }
