Qt has wchar_t as non-native?

[ChrisW67]

I assume the error message building your program stems from the include files out of SFML. If you:

#include <wchar.h>
#include <SFML/...>

#include <wchar.h>
#include <SFML/...>

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

in your source files does that straighten it out?

Well, by the time I'd seen your guys' responses, I'd already had Qt recompiling without that "-Zc:wchar_t-" flag. While simply adding #include <wchar.h> would probably have been far easier (not to mention Qt-compliant), everything seems to be working perfectly well. Qt isn't spitting out any warnings or errors, qmake is building everything just fine, SIGNALS and SLOTS are working as per usual, and SFML and is most pleased.

So, for the record, while simply doing the #include should work (I didn't try it myself, but it makes all the sense in the world), recompiling Qt without the flag seems to work as well.

Though I am just a newbie and for all I know qmake is crying in desperation.

I had the same problem and foudn that just including wchar.h didn't work because all libraries used are compiled with "-Zc:wchar_t-", so you get linker errors. Compiling Qt with the adusted .conf file is the only solution here. There is already an issue submitted on this. See http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-9617 for more details

Anyone know why in this one: http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/brows...nel#issue-tabs they say that building Qt this way won't be supported? The question's been sitting there for a year and nobody's ever answered it! I've been scared to apply this fix to our situation because of that statement but it's really becoming a true PITA.

And WTF do BIC and SIC mean??
