P3: Somewhat important Description
I am using shiboken6-generator to generate bindings to my Qt component and I need to load typesystem_quick.xml
This is included with PySide6 but it references XML entities that do not exist such as &glgetv_includes;
These entity references should resolve to a typesystem file like typesystem_glgetv_includes.xml - but these are not include in the PySide6 typesystem files.
https://doc.qt.io/qtforpython-6/shiboken6/typesystem_specifying_types.html#including-snippets
Simple reproduction:
$ python -m venv venv
$ PIP_EXTRA_INDEX_URL=https://download.qt.io/official_releases/QtForPython venv/bin/pip install PySide6 shiboken6 shiboken6-generator
$ touch bindings.h
$ cat <<EOF > bindings.xml
<typesystem package="shiboken_test">
<load-typesystem name="typesystem_quick.xml" generate="no"/>
</typesystem>
EOF
$ venv/bin/shiboken6 --generator-set=shiboken --enable-pyside-extensions -T../venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/PySide6/typesystems/ --output-directory=/tmp bindings.h bindings.xml
