Compilation problem with Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.5

[Pg]

Hi,

I have an MacBook Pro 13", 2010.
I installed :

Xcode 7.3.1

Qt 5.6.1 (Clang 7.0 (Apple), 64 bit (https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/5.6/5.6.1/)

FET 5.29.4

but don't work...

terminal :

I installed other old Qt but don't work.

even with only the command line : qmake -spec macx-g++ fet.pro 

can you help me?

thanks

[Liviu Lalescu]

Please keep installed Qt 5.6.1 only, and try:

> /Users/Roby/Qt5.6.1/5.6/clang_64/bin/qmake fet.pro
> make

If the above does not work, let me know and I'll search some more on the internet.

Edit: I found http://qt.apidoc.info/5.1.1/qtdoc-online/developing-on-mac.html , see: "Note: You can also use the qmake -spec macx-xcode command to generate the .xcodeproj file, which is required to open your Qt project in XCode." Might help.

I tried but it does not work ...

[Liviu Lalescu]

I found also this: http://www.bizicbojan.com/post/2014/01/23/Build-Qt-projects-on-Windows-and-OS-X-without-Qt-installation.aspx

Please let me know.

[Pg]

sorry but it is too difficult for me ...

[Liviu Lalescu]

Try:

./Users/yourname/QT5_build/bin/qmake [Your .pro file] -r -spec /Users/yourname/QT5_build/mkspecs/macx-clang
make -f [Path to your make file] release

and tell me what you get.

[Pg]

cd fet-5.29.4

enter

./Users/Roby/QT5_build/bin/qmake -spec macs-g++fet.pro -r -spec /Users/Roby/QT5_build/mkspecs/macx-clang

enter

make -f [Path to your make file] release        (what is this?)

enter

[Volker Dirr]

we need to know the "answer" from the terminal.

i suggest to set a PATH to the qt bin stuff and start compiling from fet directory. that is much easier, because you don't need to write always the whole path.

[Liviu Lalescu]

./Users/yourname/QT5_build/bin/qmake [Your .pro file] -r -spec /Users/yourname/QT5_build/mkspecs/macx-clang

Please replace the first part with the path to qmake: /Users/Roby/Qt5.6.1/5.6/clang_64/bin/qmake , and the last part with /Users/Roby/Qt5.6.1/5.6/clang_64/mkspecs/macx-clang

make -f [Path to your make file] release

Inside the same FET-5.29.4 directory type make -f Makefile release

Please do:

/Users/Roby/Qt5.6.1/5.6/clang_64/bin/qmake -r -spec /Users/Roby/Qt5.6.1/5.6/clang_64/mkspecs/macx-clang
then
make -f Makefile release

(you forgot "-r -spec" in the first line).

I installed FET 5.29.5
I have tried with the normal procedure :
cd fet-5.29.5
enter
/Users/Roby/Qt5.6.1/5.6/clang_64/bin/qmake -spec macx-g++ fet.pro
enter
make
enter

but :

I have tried with the last procedure :

[Liviu Lalescu]

In the last line, instead of "make -f Makefile release" type only "make -f Makefile" or also try simply "make".

If it does not work, try removing the FET unpacked and unpack it again and only do the clang part (/Users/Roby/Qt5.6.1/5.6/clang_64/bin/qmake -r -spec /Users/Roby/Qt5.6.1/5.6/clang_64/mkspecs/macx-clang and make).

If it does not work, try again with: /Users/Roby/Qt5.6.1/5.6/clang_64/bin/qmake -spec /Users/Roby/Qt5.6.1/5.6/clang_64/mkspecs/macx-clang and make.

Work!

cd fet-5.29.5

enter

/Users/Yourname/Qt5.6.1/5.6/clang_64/bin/qmake -r -spec /Users/Yourname/Qt5.6.1/5.6/clang_64/mkspecs/macx-clang

enter

make

enter

Thanks!

[Liviu Lalescu]

You are welcome!
