/X11R6 HEADERS AND Compiler errors

Tom Frencel — Wed, 09 Feb 2005 15:30:05 GMT

Hello,

I am attempting to build Qt 3.3.4 on Hp 11 (64-bit). I am using the 64-bit gcc 3.3.3 compiler.
It seems like the compiler does not like the X11R6 header files, as I am getting a lot of messages of the following type:

Does any one know how I may be able to fix these problems? Is this a known gcc incompatibility with HP's X11R6 headers? Are there "header-only" patches available. I am using a build server, used by others, so applying patches to it is not a simple matter.
Much thanks and appreciation for any help!

cd $QTDIR/src
vi Makefile

change g++ to 'g++ -fpermissive'

Worth a try!

Thanks Peter - I'll give your suggested switch a try.

Thanks Stephen - I did check out the referred post before I decided to write my own. The prior post did not capture the same architecture/Qt version that I am building. Furthermore, the post that you referred to ends with a rant and does not seem to have a concrete resolution;-)

Thanks Guys,
