Windows

  • Install the dependencies

    • Install Python for windows from the store or https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/
    • Install OpenSSL from here: https://slproweb.com/download/Win64OpenSSL-3_1_5.msi and verify the sha256 from https://github.com/slproweb/opensslhashes/blob/master/win32_openssl_hashes.json
    • To install the Qt libraries, cmake and the MinGW compiler aqtinstall is used. Sphinx is used to generate the documentation
      pip3 install sphinx aqtinstall

      %USERPROFILE%\6.6.0\mingw_64\lib\cmake
      
    • Install https://wixtoolset.org/releases/ if you want to create the MSI installer
  • Clone: git clone https://github.com/chris2511/xca.git

  • Configure: cmake -B build -G "MinGW Makefiles" xca

  • Make: cmake --build build -j5

  • Create the Portable App: cmake --build build -t install

  • Build the MSI installer (and the Portable App): cd build ; cpack

SQL Remote Database Drivers

MySQL plugins are not shipped with QT anymore because of license issues.

Linux

  • Debian: libqt6sql6-psql libqt6sql6-mysql or libqt6sql6-odbc.
  • RPM: libqt6-database-plugin-pgsql libqt6-database-plugin-mysql libqt6-database-plugin-odbc They should pull in all necessary dependencies.

Apple macos

  • PostgreSQL: Install the https://postgresapp.com/
  • ODBC: It requires the /usr/local/opt/libiodbc/lib/libiodbc.2.dylib. When installing unixodbc via brew the library must be symlinked from /opt/homebrew/Cellar/libiodbc/3.52.16/lib/libiodbc.2.dylib
  • MariaDB: Probably via ODBC ?

Windows
