    Where you declare variables?

    Usually where you use them, in functions or blocks. If you have a global variable then it is declared in the .cpp file, thus you don't get the same symbol in multiple translation units (.o files resulting from compilation). It is safe to put extern declarations in header files, because they do not amount to a variable, but are only information for the compiler (and linker).
    This most certainly is a C++ problem. My suggestion is to read up a bit more on C++ to have a better grasp on where and for what memory is allocated. That being said, without a bit more of code and/or information on the problem you're facing I fear I wouldn't be of much help.

    Here are some resources you could use, if you wish:

      I am aware of C++, It looks good, If you provide a solution, how to solve this single statement. You do not need to be proficient.

        Might be problem with GCC.Check your Gcc version .

            Hi, just guessing, but if that line is inside a class declaration (not outside) then you'll get that 108 error, for example:

            class MyClass {
            ...
            QString settingsFile("/boot/settings.json");
            ...
            };
            

            you could try

            class MyClass {
            ...
            QString settingsFile = "/boot/settings.json";
            ...
            };

                What is your GCC version ? less than 4.7?

                  gcc (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) 4.6.3
                  

                  I cross compiled Linux, OpenCV, FFmpeg Qt Raspi and many other apps never faced a compiler problems.

                  Should this look like compiler version problem?

                          Is the error at line 108 bec of this ?

                            I cleaned all GCC versions and activated 4.7
                            Now it's compiled and executed my app.

                            QString settingsFile{"neet/One.json"};
                            

                            Very strange about the brackets () and {}

                            Thank You guys, it's GCC 4.7 made the difference.

                                Ok. I think I get what your problem was. In all probability C++11 is enabled by default in GCC 4.7 (on your distribution), that is why I asked what compiler and environment you're using. Here is the relevant link:
                                http://www.open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/docs/papers/2008/n2756.htm
                                That being said, without the non-static data member initializers supported by the compiler you are obliged to initialize the object in your class' constructor and cannot do it in its declaration. Meaning that if you compile the code on another platform and/or compiler that does not have the C++11 standard enabled you'll get similar errors.

                                Read and abide by the Qt Code of Conduct
