<br>
I'd like to report the successful completion of this grant project.<br>
(see <a href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Enhancement-Proposals/issues/243" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Enhancement-Proposals/issues/243</a> for<br>
proposal details).<br>
<br>
In a fortunate turn of events, I didn't encounter any of the<br>
previously expected significant issues during this work and as a<br>
result was able to proceed much further with the Qt 6 port then<br>
originally proposed!<br>
<br>
The proposal originally concerned only porting the "gui" and "app"<br>
libraries to Qt 6, but I was able to complete also the "3d" and<br>
"server" libraries too. We now are at a stage where the majority of<br>
QGIS builds and runs without any significant issues on Qt 6. The<br>
github CI setup has been updated to also run the c++ tests for gui,<br>
app, server and 3d, and the majority of these have been fixed so that<br>
they pass on the Qt 6 builds too.<br>
<br>
In addition, some tests which were failing under Qt 6 revealed some<br>
real QGIS bugs which have been fixed in the process of this work. (So<br>
there's a direct benefit for the existing Qt 5 builds too!).<br>
<br>
As previously reported, the next major step toward Qt 6 is enabling<br>
python support for Qt 6 builds, and then running the full test suite<br>
(with all the 1000s of python based tests) so that we can get a more<br>
complete picture of exactly how stable and bug-free the Qt 6 port is.<br>
<br>
Thanks again for the opportunity to undertake this work!<br>
<br>
Nyall<br>
