Hello, I haven't had any success building qtractor. When trying to build for either Qt4 or Qt5 I get the following errors:
In file included from qtractorAudioEngine.cpp:35:0: qtractorMidiManager.h:298:11: error: field ‘progs’ has incomplete type ‘qtractorMidiManager::Progs {aka QMap}’ Progs progs; ^ In file included from /usr/include/qt4/QtCore/qpair.h:45:0, from /usr/include/qt4/QtCore/qhash.h:49, from /usr/include/qt4/QtCore/QHash:1, from qtractorMidiControl.h:29, from qtractorTrack.h:27, from qtractorEngine.h:25, from qtractorAudioEngine.h:26, from qtractorAudioEngine.cpp:23: /usr/include/qt4/QtCore/qdatastream.h:67:37: note: declaration of ‘qtractorMidiManager::Progs {aka class QMap}’ template class QMap; ^ In file included from qtractorAudioEngine.cpp:35:0: qtractorMidiManager.h:396:14: error: field ‘m_instruments’ has incomplete type ‘qtractorMidiManager::Instruments {aka QMap >}’ Instruments m_instruments; ^ In file included from /usr/include/qt4/QtCore/qpair.h:45:0, from /usr/include/qt4/QtCore/qhash.h:49, from /usr/include/qt4/QtCore/QHash:1, from qtractorMidiControl.h:29, from qtractorTrack.h:27, from qtractorEngine.h:25, from qtractorAudioEngine.h:26, from qtractorAudioEngine.cpp:23: /usr/include/qt4/QtCore/qdatastream.h:67:37: note: declaration of ‘qtractorMidiManager::Instruments {aka class QMap >}’ template class QMap; ^
In an attempt to get things to just compile I use the following:
./configure --enable-vst=no --enable-libsamplerate=no --enable-librubberband=no --enable-libvorbis=no --enable-libmad=no --enable-liblo=no --enable-dssi=no --enable-lv2=no --enable-lilv=no --enable-nsm=no
I used sudo apt-get build-dep qtractor to make sure I have the dependencies.
Does this look familiar or obvious to anyone?
Thanks for your wisdom.
re. Can't build 0.7.9 on Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit
i suspect you're still trying to build on an system which fails or is incomplete on dependencies on either Qt4 or/and Qt5 build dependencies.
i have no big field experience on ubuntu, but you can try following the following basic (theoretical) steps :
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install qtbase5-dev qtbase5-dev-tools qttools5-dev-tools qtchooser
sudo apt-get install libx11-dev x11proto-core-dev, libqt5x11extras5-dev
sudo apt-get install libjack-dev libasound2-dev libsndfile-dev ladspa-sdk libvorbis-dev libsamplerate-dev
sudo apt-get install libmad0-dev librubberband-dev dssi-dev liblo0-dev zlib1g-dev
sudo apt-get install lv2-dev liblilv-dev libsuil-dev
./autogen.sh clean
./autogen.sh
export QT_SELECT=5
./configure
make
sudo make install
hth.
cheers
Excellent, thank you very
Excellent, thank you very much. The trick seemed to be removing "--enable-vst=no" from my configure line. I didn't actually install anything just now because everything was already there except the Qt5 packages, and I already had the full Qt5 tools installed and didn't want to have two variants of Qt5 stuff.
I stumbled a bit getting configure to work and crossed a point where that switch was now not helping me. Here are the "tweaks" that I think were necessary for me:
I feel like there is a more proper way to do this, but none of the info I found, particularly about qtchooser, seemed to solve locating my Qt5 binaries.
in the ./configure options.
in the ./configure options.
It's building and running now.
Thanks again!
