\summary {Generates client-side C++ bindings for a Wayland protocol .XML file}

The command is defined in the \c WaylandClient component of the \c Qt6 package, which
can be loaded like so:

\badcode
find_package(Qt6 REQUIRED COMPONENTS WaylandClient)
\endcode

\cmakecommandsince 6.0

\section1 Description

qt_generate_wayland_protocol_client_sources() creates the build steps to run \c{wayland-scanner} and
\c{qtwaylandscanner} on one or more Wayland protocol files. The tools will in turn generate binding
code in C and C++ for implementing the protocols, and the resulting files will be built as part
of the \c target.

The options \c{PUBLIC_CODE} and \c{PRIVATE_CODE} (added in Qt 6.8) correspond to the \c{public-code}
and \c{private-code} options of \c{wayland-scanner}. \c{PUBLIC_CODE} will cause the symbols in the
code that is generated by \c{wayland-scanner} to be exported. For backwards compatibility \c{PUBLIC_CODE} is the
default but generally \c{PRIVATE_CODE} is strongly recommended.

qt_generate_wayland_protocol_client_sources() will trigger generation of the files needed to
implement the client side of the protocol. \l{qt_generate_wayland_protocol_server_sources}{qt_generate_wayland_protocol_server_sources()}
is the equivalent function for the compositor.

See the \l{Custom Shell} or \l{Custom Extension} examples for a demonstration of how to use these
functions.
