Hi, Sorry for the late reply. I have to wait for 10 minutes to post again.

Its dual core and yeah it is progressing to other files. I dont think it is stuck and i am using the open source edition and not the commercial edition. Also, i am using 5.8 and not 5.10

Ok, but 20 hours is pretty crazy.
I think it took like 12 hours on my raspberry pi but that was also saving
to very slow USB stick.
But that was Qt5.5.
Maybe 5.10 is more heavy. But i still think something is wrong as
its not a weak pc.
I would give it a few more hours and then kill it and restart.

ps. i gave you some upvotes. should make posting faster.

Hi, Thank you for the upvote. I will wait for a few more hours. If it is still compiling, maybe i will then try a different version.

@parijit
Is a spin disk ( traditional) or a SSD ?
Sounds like a good plan.

Is there a reason you want to compile your own version?
(versus using the precompiled for macOS)

parijit

I have a SATA hard drive. I tried with the precompiled version, and i was facing some issues with Xcode. So i decided to go with the source version.

@parijit
Ok, that slows stuff down a bit but not to 20 hours i recon.

Hmm, often Xcode error come from mismatch in expected version.

What version of Xcode is it ?

parijit

Its 8.2 on El-Capitan 10.11.16
