Bumping QML Module Versions
Bumping Qt Quick Controls 2
This section documents the process for bumping Qt Quick Controls 2.
Bump MODULE_VERSION, qmldirs and docs
MODULE_VERSION determines the module version used by "make qmltypes" (which runs qmlplugindump, a tool used to create plugins.qmltypes).
qmldir files are explained here. In the case of Qt Quick Controls 2, it has a dependency to Qt Quick Templates, hence why it must be bumped.
Any documentation files that mention the version number should be bumped as well. For example:
This patch bumps all three at once:
https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/221809/
Bump imports of QML files using the module itself
For example:
https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/221211/
Bump plugins.qmltypes
For example:
https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/221397/
Bump any imported versions of QML files that follow the Qt version
Qt's version is bumped by increasing MODULE_VERSION in qtbase/.qmake.conf:
https://github.com/qt/qtbase/commit/df9de3e4543b8f8bf4ec4c53921700133e37f051
QT_VERSION is then deduced from that:
http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/tree/configure#n343
After that, the Qt version bump in qtbase will need to integrate to qt5.git. For example, in the case of the commit above, that was done here:
https://codereview.qt-project.org/#/c/204113/
Once all of that has happened, any imports of a module whose version follows the Qt version (such as QtQuick) can be bumped:
