Hello,

when trying to build Qwt 6.0 on Mac OSX 10.7.1 with Qt SDK 1.1.3 (Qt 4.7.4) compilation fails with this error

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

I followed the both building instruction specified by INSTALL file:

qmake 
make

qmake 
make

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

and

qmake -spec macx-g++
make

qmake -spec macx-g++
make

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

The error is similar to an already reported (and fixed) bug

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func...93&atid=113693

It's my first time in compiling third parts libraries on an Mac arch.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Marco

P.S. I've tried to compile the development snapshot version too

Searching on bug tracker I've found another user who has the same issue

I've done some tries yesterday and I get it "works", or, at least, install, acting on qwtconfig.pri:

- Qwt library (framework) compiles successfully;
- QwtMathML compiles successfully with some already known warnings, but at linking time ld fails to find the Qwt framework;
- Disabling QwtMathML compilation, the story will repeat again when the Qwt Qt Designer plugin is linking;
- Finally, disabling the QwtDesigner compilation, i can reach the end and launch "make install" which, now, installs only the Qwt framework.

Thanks,

Marco

Hi Marco,

Sorry for reviving a (two month) old thread, but I had the exactly the same problem as you on OSX. I fixed it by setting the CONFIG variable to 'release' in the qwtbuild.pri file. That allows all the plugins to be compiled as well. Hope this helps!

Cheers,

Chris.
