I failed to build qtcreator-4.14.2....

I'm using gcc 11.2.0 under Ubuntu 22.04.1

Qt Creator 4.14 is quite old, but Ubuntu 22.04 is quite new. Most likely you have a newer version of GoogleTest that is backward-incompatible with the version used by Qt Creator 4.14.

May I ask why you want to build Qt Creator 4.14? Your have other options:

• Build a newer version: https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qtcreator/ OR
• Download and run the installer for Qt Creator 4.14: https://download.qt.io/archive/qtcreator/4.14/4.14.2/qt-creator-opensource-linux-x86_64-4.14.2.run

@JKSH My bad... I found qt-creator probably from archive, rather than official_releases...

Problem solved....

But, one thing: I need to comment out line 121 // style.ConstructorInitializerAllOnOneLineOrOnePerLine = false; of file ....../qt-creator-opensource-src-8.0.2/src/plugins/clangformat/clangformatutils.cpp .
