[qt5-base] does not deploy all platform plugins on Windows #37897

Closed tsondergaard closed 1 month ago

tsondergaard commented 7 months ago

On Windows qt5-qtbase only deploys the windows.dll platform plugin to the build folder. This is done by vcpkg-ports/qt5-base/qtdeploy.ps1. This is a problem as Qt supplies other platform plugins that consuming software may use. I need the offscreen.dll platform plugin as my project uses it to run GUI unit tests. vcpkg-ports/qt5-base/qtdeploy.ps1 only selectively deploys from the platforms plugins folder. All other Qt plugin types are deployed fully.

You can always deploy plugins yourself if the default isn't enough. Deploying all of them may not be desirable as well.

Somewhat related: https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/pull/35931. It would deploy qminimal and qoffscreen along the Test lib.

@dg0yt, I've made a simple PR for this. I would appreciate it if you would have a look at it.
