Qt 5.5.1 build error in AIX 6.1

Daryong

Hi.

I get an error when building qt 5.5.1 in AIX 6.1.

< error >
./configure -platform aix-g++
...

Preparing build tree...
Creating qmake...
....
/opt/qt5/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.5.1/qtbase/include/QtCore/../../src/corelib/global/qglobal.h:39:21: error: cstddef: No such file or directory
....

<qglobal.h>
#ifdef __cplusplus
# include <cstddef> <------- error line
#endif

I found that file(cstddef) in
./opt/freeware/lib/gcc/powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/4.0.0/include/c++/cstddef
./opt/freeware/lib/gcc/powerpc-ibm-aix6.1.0.0/6.2.0/include/c++/cstddef
What should I do?

Hi,

I haven't use that platform but are you cross-compiling ?

@SGaist Hi,

I am currently using it for AIX, linux, and window 7(msdev2013), and linux builds the source directly.

Thanks.

It doesn't look like your environment is setup for the gcc / g++ compilers. Are you able to compile a simple Hello World program with g++ from the command line? If not, you can try exporting the following environment variables before configuring:

export PATH=/path/to/g++/bin:$PATH
export CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/path/to/g++/include
export C_INCLUDE_PATH=/path/to/gcc/include
export LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/g++/lib

You need to install the 'libstdc++-devel' and link the installs in order to fix this issue.
