# libqtxdg
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Overview
|
||
|
|
||
|
`libqtxdg` is a Qt 5 implementation of freedesktop.org XDG specifications.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is maintained by the LXQt project and nearly all LXQt components are depending on it. Yet it can be used independently from this desktop environment, too.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The library is able to use GTK+ icon theme caches for faster icon lookup. The cache file can be generated with utility `gtk-update-icon-cache` on a theme directory. If the cache is not present, corrupted, or outdated, the normal slow lookup is still run.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Installation
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Sources
|
||
|
|
||
|
At runtime qtbase is needed. gtk-update-icon-cache represents an optional runtime dependency for the reasons stated above.
|
||
|
Additional build dependencies are CMake, qtsvg, qttools and optionally Git to pull latest VCS checkouts.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The code configuration is handled by CMake so all corresponding generic instructions apply. Specific CMake variables are
|
||
|
* BUILD_TESTS to build tests. Disabled by default (`OFF`).
|
||
|
* BUILD_DEV_UTILS which builds and installs development utils. Disabled by default as well.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To build and install run `make` and `make install`respectively.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Binary packages
|
||
|
|
||
|
The library is provided by all major Linux distributions like Arch Linux, Debian, Fedora and openSUSE.
|
||
|
Just use the distributions' package managers to search for string `libqtxdg`.
