Porting Qt 6.2 to OS/2 operating system

psmedley

Hi All,

I'm attempting to update the OS/2 port of Qt 5.15 (https://github.com/bitwiseworks/qtbase-os2) to Qt 6.2.4 (https://github.com/psmedley/qt6-os2)

Things are going pretty well and I have a number of DLLs built, howeever I'm now stuck on building the OS/2 plugin.

I'm getting the following:

AutoMoc subprocess error
------------------------
The moc process failed to compile
  "SRC:/src/plugins/platforms/os2/main.cpp"
into
  "SRC:/build/src/plugins/platforms/os2/QOS2IntegrationPlugin_autogen/include/main.moc"
included by
  "SRC:/src/plugins/platforms/os2/main.cpp"

Output
------
U:/DEV/qtbase-everywhere-src-6.2.4/src/plugins/platforms/os2/main.cpp:49:1: error: Parse error at "IID"

Any clues on how to resolve the parse error?

Cheers,

Paul

@psmedley said in Porting Qt 6.2 to OS/2 operating system:

What exactly is in this line?
You should also consider asking this on Qt developers mailing list.

@jsulm Line 49 of https://github.com/psmedley/qt6-os2/blob/main/src/plugins/platforms/os2/main.cpp is:

    Q_PLUGIN_METADATA(IID QPlatformIntegrationFactoryInterface_iid FILE "os2.json")

The windows equivalent looks very similar to my eyes.
