Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Using

cpp-qt-client
to generate code which can be used in Qt needs access to "QDesktopServices" which needs "QtGui" dependency. I want to create a small library so I needing this dependency is a lot of overhead for a not used function.

Describe the solution you'd like

Need an option to disable code generation for "oauth" functions.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Patch generated C++-Files on my own.

Research direction

Start from the cpp-qt-client generation path and the handling of generated oauth functions; the issue does not name specific files or tests. Trace how QDesktopServices and the QtGui dependency enter generated C++ output. Done means an option can disable oauth function generation and the resulting client no longer requires QtGui when those functions are unused.
