building Qt6 OCI driver for MacOS Monterey

Albert M.

Thanks!
So, I have QT/Sources downloaded now.

What should I do next?

Albert M.

@SGaist - Ok, I finally got the command line below to work.

qt-cmake -G Ninja ~/Qt/6.3.2/Src/qtbase/src/plugins/sqldrivers  -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/Qt/6.3.2/gcc_64 -DOracle_INCLUDE_DIR=~/oracle/instantclient-19_8/sdk/include -DOracle_LIBRARY=~/oracle/instantclient-19_8/libclntsh.dylib

Issue: When I ran the next commans, I get an error

- cmake --build .

However, when I ran this command I get an exception

Exception

FAILED: oci/CMakeFiles/QOCIDriverPlugin.dir/main.cpp.o
/Users/myuser/Qt/6.3.2/macos/lib/QtSql.framework/Headers/qsqldriver.h:112:18: note: overridden virtual function is here
    virtual bool hasFeature(DriverFeature f) const = 0;

Can you please assist?

Albert M.

@SGaist any update? I really need help here.

SGaist

You did not post enough of the build error.

Qt/6.3.2/Src/qtbase/src/plugins/sqldrivers/oci/qsql_oci_p.h:81:10: error: 'hasFeature' overrides a member function but is not marked 'override' [-Werror,-Winconsistent-missing-override]

Your compiler is refusing to proceed because hasFeature() does not have the override keyword applied. So the fix is to modify the header and mark it as override.

Please open a bug report for this at https://bugreports.qt.io

overrides a member function but is not marked 'override'

@JKSH - Thanks you so much! The issue is now resolved.

Resolution
I added the override to the syntax and recompiled !
