Compiling from Source
Requirements
The Qt toolkit 5.9 or newer is required to compile Profex. Since there are no further dependencies it runs on all operating systems supported by the Qt-libraries version >= 5.9. The following commands show how to install the necessary packages on various Linux distributions. Note that root privileges are required:
Ubuntu 18.04
apt-get install qtbase5-dev libqt5svg5-dev qtdeclarative5-dev
PCLinuxOS
apt-get install lib64qt5base5-devel lib64qt5svg-devel lib64qt5qml-devel lib64qt5imageformats-devel
OpenSuse Leap 15.0
zypper install libqt5-qtbase-devel libqt5-qtsvg-devel libqt5-qtdeclarative-devel libqt5-qtimageformats-devel
How to compile
To compile the source code archive and run the program, change to the Profex base directory, and type:
qmake -r profex.pro make -j 4 src/profex
Make sure that qmake of Qt version 5 is used if several versions are installed. If necessary, specify the full path to qmake.
Examples
On PCLinuxOS 64bit run:
/usr/lib64/qt5/bin/qmake -r profex.pro make -j 4 src/profex
On Debian 8.0 32bit run:
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/qt5/bin/qmake -r profex.pro make -j 4 src/profex
On Debian 8.0 / Ubuntu 16.04 64bit run:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/bin/qmake -r profex.pro make -j 4 src/profex
On OpenSuse Leap 15.0 run:
qmake-qt5 -r profex.pro make -j 4 src/profex
Background information
The source code archive is bundled with GPL licensed versions of zlib, the QuaZip library, and the alglib library source code. All libraries are automatically compiled by the commands shown above and linked statically into the profex binary. This avoids conflicts with libquazip system versions compiled against Qt 4, which would cause Profex to crash as soon as a Bruker BRML file is loaded. Bundling, compiling and static linking both libraries solves this problem.
