Qt Creator & C++11
-
Hello
I've tried to use Qt Creator with the latest version of C++. I installed the latest version of MinGW, added it to the Tool Chains of Qt Creator and selected it but I got the following error message:
warning: identifier 'nullptr' is a keyword in C++11 [-Wc++0x-compat]I added argument "-std=c++0x" to the Build Steps arguments list and then I got this:
:-1: error: invalid option -- =Now I have no idea what to do. Can you please help me?
Thanks.
EDIT:
There seems to be a problem using my installed version of MinGW anyway. If I build my project using it (without C++11) I can't see any program window. -
"-std=" is C++ compiler flag, so you have to give it to compiler which can be archived by adding
@
QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -std=c++11
@to your .pro-file.
I don't know about your other problem but did application work before? Does it give some errors when starting?

Hi
That helped. Thanks! However I'm wondering why I cannot put -std=c++11 to
Projects -> Build Steps -> Make Details -> Make argumentsEDIT: It seems that when I use the latest version of MinGW compiler downloaded from MinGW website the program can be compiled but the program window won't show up. This doesn't happen if I use the MinGW compiler shipped with Qt Creator. :/ And unfortunately that compiler does not support C++11.

Projects -> Build Steps -> Make Details -> Make arguments are arguments for make command which handles building from Makefile which is generated by qmake.
If your application requires C++11 then it is better to define it in project file.Could your other problem be caused by Qt which is built with older MinGW?

I had the same set of problems. Mine were solved by add a qmake link flags setting. These are the two lines that made C++11 work with clang++ 3.1 for me
QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.6
QMAKE_LFLAGS += -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.6 -
Should've verified that first. The correct flags are:
QMAKE_CXXFLAGS = -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.7
QMAKE_LFLAGS = -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.7 -
thanks for: QMAKE_CXXFLAGS = -std=c+11

There is a much much easier way:
@CONFIG += c++11@
Put that in your project .pro file and you're done :)
