Description Christoph Feck 2009-01-16 02:07:16 UTC
Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Compiling digiKam with latest Qt 4.5 snapshot results in a compilation error. The QVariant(void *) constructor has been made private.

When passing pointers to QVariant, the constructor QVariant(int typeOrUserType, const void *copy) should be used. It may require registering a custom QVariant type.

What follows is the detailed error message:

/usr/local/qt4/include/QtCore/qvariant.h: In member function 'virtual QVariant Digikam::AbstractAlbumModel::data(const QModelIndex&, int) const':
/usr/local/qt4/include/QtCore/qvariant.h:408: error: 'QVariant::QVariant(void*)' is private

Or the simpler QVariant::fromValue(mypointer) / qVariantFromValue(mypointer).

Marcel,

I don't have Qt 4.5 here to test... What do you think about Pino tip from #1 ?

Comment 4 Marcel Wiesweg 2009-01-16 17:20:12 UTC
Christoph, can you test compilation? We all dont have Qt4.5.
Comment 5 Christoph Feck 2009-01-16 18:18:04 UTC
r912061 compiles with Qt 4.5 snapshot 20090116, thanks!

Note that Marble currently has the same bug, so I had to compile digiKam without libmarblewidget support. All other dependencies enabled, as far as CMake report is correct.
