qt-creator/qtcreatordata.pri

# This pri file is used to deploy files that are not compiled while building
# Qt Creator. It handles copying of files into the build directory if using
# a shadow build and adds the respective install target as well.
#
# Usage: Define variables (details below) and include this pri file afterwards.
#
# STATIC_BASE         - base directory for the files listed in STATIC_FILES
# STATIC_FILES        - list of files to be deployed
# STATIC_OUTPUT_BASE  - base directory in the compile output
# STATIC_INSTALL_BASE - base directory in the install output

# used in custom compilers which just copy files
defineReplace(stripStaticBase) {
    return($$relative_path($$1, $$STATIC_BASE))

# handle conditional copying based on STATIC_BASE compared to STATIC_OUTPUT_BASE
