Adding gcc and gdb to Creator (Windows XP)

mzimmers

I'm using the bundled version that came in the download yesterday. According to the tool chain, it's in /QtSDK/mingw/bin/mingw32-g++.exe.

I can't find the MSYS command line, so I can't tell you what version.

And...I'm reluctant to use Qt data typing, because I don't yet know where all this program will be hosted, but I did test it, and got the same error.

I was told that Boost might get me around this problem, but...how to install it isn't obvious (actually, not much of anything on Windows is obvious to me). I downloaded it and unzipped it, but haven't figured out how to complete the installation.

Strange. Are you really sure you only do have a 64 bit constant?

What is the output of

@
qDebug() << "sizeof(uint64_t)" << sizeof(uint64_t);
qDebug() << "sizeof(quint64)" << sizeof(quint64);
qDebug() << "sizeof(long long int)" << sizeof(long long int);
qDebug() << "sizeof(long int)" << sizeof(long int);

I'm not sure what you're asking...the hex value I'm supplying has 16 digits, which should correspond to 64 bits.

Can you double-check that there is no typo and you do not have another digit sneaked in? The size of the types look ok.

What's the output of

@
qDebug() << GNUC << GNUC_MINOR << GNUC_PATCHLEVEL;

Double- and triple-checked...the hex value is good (or at least, it's what I intend it to be. ff, followed by 14 0s.

I've also tried ff << 56 with similar results.

Is it possible that I'm omitting a needed header file? Which do you include in your example that worked?

Output of that line is:

4 4 0.

Thanks for helping.

That's the complete program:

@
#include <QtCore/QCoreApplication>
#include <QDebug>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QCoreApplication(argc, argv);
const quint64 ui64 = 0xf123456789abcdef;

qDebug() << "ui64" << ui64 << QString::number(ui64, 16);
qDebug() << "sizeof(quint64)" << sizeof(quint64);
qDebug() << "sizeof(uint64_t)" << sizeof(uint64_t);
qDebug() << "sizeof(long long int)" << sizeof(long long int);
qDebug() << "sizeof(long int)" << sizeof(long int);

return 0;

}

Fascinating...I just copied your program, and I get the same warning I've been getting all along (line 7 this time).

Is your system 32-bit?

EDIT: I have a number of other compilers in my tool chain; would it be worth trying a different one? How does one go about shuffling the order of the auto-detected tools?

goetz

Hm. It's a 64bit Vista system. But MinGW and Qt both are 32bit versions, so theoretically that shouldn't be a problem.

I need to install the SDK on a 32 bit XP box next week to check.

mzimmers

OK...in the meantime, I'd better start looking for a solution to this. Do you use the Boost libraries on your Vista system? I need a pointer on installing it.

goetz

Nope, I never was in need of using boost.
