[Qt-creator] Unable to Compile QtCreator (4.15)

Tue Feb 23 16:03:08 CET 2021

I have been trying for the last few days to compile QtCreator using the master branch. I finally had to pick some random commit from a few weeks back to get it to compile. I just tried the latest 4.15 branch and I get the following compiler error:

69 warnings generated.

ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

My configuration is macOS 10.15.7, Xcode 12.4, Qt 5.14.2 (using prebuilt from download.qt.io) and clang prebuilt libs version 11.

This is the general set of commands that I follow:

        cd /Users/Shared/OpenSource
        curl "http://qt.mirror.constant.com/development_releases/prebuilt/libclang/libclang-release_100-based-mac.7z" --output libclang-release_110-based-mac.7z
        open libclang-release_110-based-mac.7z
        export BRANCH=4.15
        git clone -b $BRANCH ssh://git@github.com/qt-creator/qt-creator
        mkdir -p qt-creator-builds/Relase
        cd qt-creator-builds/Relase
        export PATH=/Users/Shared/IMF_SDK/Qt5.14.2/5.14.2/clang_64/bin:$PATH
        cmake -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/Users/mjackson/Applications/QtCreator-$BRANCH -DBUILD_PLUGIN_CLANGREFACTORING=ON -DBUILD_PLUGIN_CLANGPCHMANAGER=ON -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/Users/Shared/OpenSource/libclang  ../../qt-creator
        ninja
        ninja install

since I am not seeing any traffic on the list I'll assume that I have missed an update or something?
