Help : Segmentation fault when using a 3rd library

[Tissues]

Thany you for your reply. I'm new to Qt and I don't know what is a degubber. Now I am using Qt Creator and press F5 to debug my project. The debugging process stops at the line where I am going to declare a new object contained in the library.

[SGaist]

Then I suppose you are also new at programming ?

Can you show the code ?

[Tissues]

I have some basic knowledge in C++ programming and one semester's course in data structure and algorithm, but I'm ignorant in interface development.

I downloaded my library on this website:
http://genie.sis.pitt.edu/index.php/downloads
followed tutorial on this website:
http://genie.sis.pitt.edu/wiki/SMILE_Documentation
and wrote my own code:
@#include "widget.h"
#include <QApplication>
#include "smile.h"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
DSL_network myNetwork;
QApplication a(argc, argv);
Widget w;
w.show();

return a.exec();

}
@

Debugging process stopped at
@DSL_network myNetwork;@

And what error are you getting ?

[Tissues]

A message box with a title "Signal received", reading

The inferior stopped because it received a signal from the Operating System.
Signal name: SIGSEGV
Signal meaning: Segmentatio fault

[SGaist]

Since you are using MinGW, your should already have a debugger then just click on the other green arrow, then one with the little bug, you should get more information

[Tissues]

Application Output:
Debugging starts
can't find linker symbol for virtual table for 'QApplication' value

There are many warnings. Some read 'ignoring #pragma comment' while others 'unused parameter'. What is the problem?

[SGaist]

Did you download the MinGW version ? If so, it's been compiled with MinGW 4.6.2 which is not compatible with 4.8

[Tissues]

Oh, I am now using Qt creator 5.2.0 and MinGW4.8. How can I reduce MinGW to a 4.6.2 version?

[SGaist]

You would need to install it by hand and also recompile Qt with it

[SGaist]

However, the download page also mention that you can request a build, so you could try to ask them about a version using MinGW 4.8

[Tissues]

Thx for your reply! I have downloaded Mingw32 4.6.2, but I want to ask how to recompile Qt with it.

[SGaist]

Just follow the "documentation":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/windows-building.html

However, I would recommend trying to ask a build for MinGW 4.8

[Tissues]

I've tried to follow the instruction, but it is complex for me. I just copied and pasted MinGW4.6.2 in the directory, and compiled the program. Now it stops at the very beginning and the Application Output window says

Did you also compile Qt with that version of MinGW ?
