[Qt-interest] qscriptextvariant.cpp and Visual Studio 2008 SP1

[Daniel Bowen]

I got the same error compiling for x64 Windows with 4.5.1 and VS 2008 SP1.  I also have a modified qmake.conf (to get .pdb files, treat wchar_t as build in type, etc.).  I wasn't using QScript stuff, so I worked around it by cd'ing into other directories and running nmake.  That's great if you have a fix.

Thanks,
-Daniel

Hi!

In the past I used MSVC 2005 SP1 to compile Qt and other programs/libraries and had no [serious] problems. Recently I tried to compile Qt 4.5.2 (64-bit shared release version, custom tweaked mkspecs) with MSVC 2008 SP1 and got internal compiler error in src/script/qscriptextvariant.cpp during link-time code generation. The error occured in function Variant::method_valueOf() at line 162.

Has anyone had this problem?

After I followed the compiler's suggestion to simplify the code (see the attached diff file) Qt was successfully compiled.

What also surprises me is that QMake, which uses this file, too, compiles without problems even with original version of the file.
