Qt 5 with Visual Studio 2008: crash on compile dscamerasession.cpp

Desch03

Hi Everyone,

I have tried for one week to compile Qt 5 coming from Git with MSVC2008 on my Windows 7 machine.

After reading all documentations found on several forums and topics, an sucessfully fix some steps (ICU...), I got an error on compilation phase and I have no idea what I have to do to solve this.

@camera\dscamerasession.cpp(107) : error C2664: 'InterlockedIncrement' : cannot c
onvert parameter 1 from 'ULONG *' to 'volatile LONG *'
Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires reinterpret_cast, C-
style cast or function-style cast

I followed carefully "this useful thread":http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15826893/building-qt5-with-visual-studio-2012-visual-studio-2013-and-integrating-with to compile but after hunting the web, I 'm running out of solution to fix my problem.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi David,

I compile-fixed the code by adding the "requested" reinterpret_cast calls:

@ STDMETHODIMP_(ULONG) AddRef()
{
return InterlockedIncrement(reinterpret_cast<volatile LONG*>(&m_ref));
}

STDMETHODIMP_(ULONG) Release()
{
    ULONG ref = InterlockedDecrement(reinterpret_cast<volatile LONG*>(&m_ref));
    if (ref == 0)
        delete this;
    return ref;
}@

This will compile, but it might crash. Atm I don't intend to find out.

Well, I finally deleted the qtMultimedia folder after checkout. Then I succeed to compile the rest and got a Qt5.3.2 for VS 2008 x86 with ANGLE and ICU.
I'm now fighting with Qt 5.4. Crashes in 3rdparty on "angle" folder: can't find d3d11.h in platform.h...

Still searching...maybe give up in few days...

Thanks for your support

set include to something like

@set include=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)\Include;%INCLUDE%@

but i still had other problems (some file wanting stdint.h which is introduced after vs2008 so we don't have it, maybe you can replace it with boost/cstdint.hpp or something) so i had to go with

@configure ... ... ... -opengl desktop@

Hi Everyone,

@SGaist : yes I installed DirectX SDK and tried to compile ANGLE with my VS2008: doesn't work... On what I read, it is required to install VS2013 to compile ANGLE.
So I imagine that angle compiled with VS2013 may not work with VS2008( X86 != X64)
(that's true, I'm lazy: I don't want to spend one hour to install VS2013 Express for just compiling ANGLE)

@FloGe: Well, what I don't understand: why with Qt5.3.2, it works """practically"""" like a charm, and for Qt 5.4, I need to declare a new include.
I will try your configure option "-opengl desktop" and let you known for the next crash... sure there will be one...

Thank you all for your help; I 'm not alone in the dark...
