How to use filesystem boost copy_file with qrc resources?

[sirherrbatka]

hm, right.

Also: I don't quite think that this belongs to the editor itself. I shouldn't change whole resources path based on the existance (or lack) of the single file. I'm wonder if I can move this to the document.cpp instead.

Huh? You got something wrong there. You are not supposed to change the resources path.

Just look if there is a file in the user location. If it is, use it. Otherwise use the file in the resources path location.

Nothing new ^_^'

Ok, once again about defaultfilters vs *.omwaddon.project.

I don't think we should get rid of extension. This way it will be easy to see for every user that he is free to open this file with editor.

[Zini]

Actually, that is not the case. The user should not open this file manually. If the user wants to modify the default filters all he has to do is to create a new addon or (preferably) a new game. This will automatically pull in the old default filters.

Ok, done.

I still need to properly edit cmake file, I guess that:

Code: Select all

configure_file(${OpenMW_SOURCE_DIR}/files/opencs/defaultfilters.omwaddon.project
    "${OpenMW_BINARY_DIR}/resources/defaultfilters" COPYONLY)

Is not what I should do, clearly.

I suggest to also change the file name in the source directory. And I think you also need an INSTALL line in the cmake file.

ok.

And I think you also need an INSTALL line in the cmake file.

I'm just exploring the topic.

[sirherrbatka]

Ok, I think that everything works. I didn't have to add install inside cmake because:

Code: Select all

  # Install resources
    INSTALL(DIRECTORY "${OpenMW_BINARY_DIR}/resources" DESTINATION "${DATADIR}" FILE_PERMISSIONS OWNER_READ GROUP_READ WORLD_READ COMPONENT "Resources")
    INSTALL(DIRECTORY DESTINATION "${DATADIR}/data" COMPONENT "Resources")

is already here.

Can somebody confirm that this will work fine, please? I tested only on my own machine.
