\title Qt for Android Environment Variables
\brief Lists some useful environment variables used by the Qt For Android toolchain.
\ingroup android-platform-extra-topics

\section1 Enabling or disabling workarounds

Qt for Android uses some environment variables to enable/disable certain workarounds:

\section2 Commonly used variables

\table 80%
\header \li Variable \li Description
\row
    \li QT_ANDROID_NO_EXIT_CALL
    \li In some cases, an Android app might not be able to safely clean all
    threads while calling \c exit() and it might crash. This is because there
    are C++ threads running and destroying these without joining them terminates
    an application. These threads cannot be joined because it's not possible
    to know if they are running. This flag avoids calling \c exit() and lets
    the Android system handle this, at the cost of not attempting to run
    global destructors.
\row
    \li QT_ANDROID_ENABLE_WORKAROUND_TO_DISABLE_PREDICTIVE_TEXT
    \li Allows the hiding of predictive text suggestions, mainly from password
    fields. Certain devices don’t handle this properly. For more information,
    see \l {Android Platform Notes}{Predictive Text}.
\row
    \li QT_ANDROID_ENABLE_RIGHT_MOUSE_FROM_LONG_PRESS
    \li Interprets a long touch press as a right mouse click event.
\row
    \li QT_ANDROID_DISABLE_ACCESSIBILITY
    \li Disable \l{Assistive Tools}{Accessibility}. This prevents the processing
    of accessibility events.
\endtable

\section2 Less commonly used variables

\table 80%
\header \li Variable \li Description
\row
    \li QT_ANDROID_FONT_LOCATION
    \li Sets a custom path for system fonts.
\row
    \li QT_ANDROID_MAX_ASSETS_CACHE_SIZE
    \li Cache size for assets under the assets folder.
\row
    \li QT_ANDROID_DISABLE_GLYPH_CACHE_WORKAROUND
    \li See \l{Text Glyph Caching}{Text Glyph Caching}
\row
    \li QT_ANDROID_RASTER_IMAGE_DEPTH
    \li
\row
    \li QT_ANDROID_MINIMUM_MOUSE_DOUBLE_CLICK_DISTANCE
    \li
\row
    \li QT_ANDROID_BACKGROUND_ACTIONS_QUEUE_SIZE
    \li When an Android app is paused or inactive, it may continue to receive
    UI updates from components like a BroadcastReceiver or Service. These updates
    are queued until the app resumes. The queue can grow indefinitely, leading
    to extra memory usage and latency when processing these updates once the app is
    active again.
    This environment variable addresses this issue by introducing a size limit
    for the queue. Once the specified limit is reached, the oldest entry is
    discarded to add the newest entry, therefore preventing unbound growth.
    By default, the queue is unbound and this environment variable is not set.
    Additionally, if set to any negative number the queue remains unbound.

    For example, QT_ANDROID_BACKGROUND_ACTIONS_QUEUE_SIZE=100 limits the queue
    to 100 actions.
\endtable
