I'm giving c++ a try again after being away for 7 years. I've downloaded the newly released Qt 5.0 sdk for osx, but I can't get a basic c++11 feature compiled using Qt Creator. The following statement:
auto i = 3;
results in a compilation error:
mainwindow.cpp:19: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of 'i' with no type
I've google around for similar problems and found suggestions to put
QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -std=c++11
or
CONFIG += c++11
in the .pro file. Unfortunately without success .The build fails on unrecognized command line options.
I must be doing something wrong. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Frans
It's looks like Qt Creator for Mac bug.
I fixed it using
QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.7
LIBS += -stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.7
in .pro file
I don't know if this is still an issue for you.
On my current system (Max OS X Yosemite - Qt 5.4 - QtCreator 3.0 - XCode 6.1.1) this works like a charm:
In .pro file:
macx {
QMAKE_MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET = 10.7
QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -mmacosx-version-min=10.7
QMAKE_CFLAGS += -mmacosx-version-min=10.7
QMAKE_MAC_SDK = macosx10.9
}
macx {
QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++
QMAKE_CFLAGS += -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++
}
CONFIG += c++11
Make sure you have the latest Mac OS X SDK installed too.
According to the gcc feature list, auto
is supported since gcc 4.4
through:
g++ -std=c++0x
you could also try the gcc-specific
form:
g++ -std=gnu++0x
Maybe, in your case, an additional problem occurs (g++ parameters not correctly promoted to the compiler).
