Hello, I am trying to update Qt to 5.5.0. Unfortunately, it does not compile; there are error messages such as ../../../src/3rdparty/chromium/ui/gfx/codec/jpeg_codec.cc: In function ‘boolean gfx:: {anonymous}::FillInputBuffer(j_decompress_ptr)’: ../../../src/3rdparty/chromium/ui/gfx/codec/jpeg_codec.cc:362:10: error: cannot conve rt ‘bool’ to ‘boolean’ in return return false; ../../../src/3rdparty/chromium/ui/gfx/codec/jpeg_codec.cc:276:32: error: invalid conv ersion from ‘int’ to ‘boolean’ [-fpermissive] jpeg_start_compress(&cinfo, 1);
We might use too aggressive type checking here. Anyway, I seem to recall that we discussed leaving out the building of chromium altogether due to security considerations? In this case, it should be enough to pass the configure flag "-skip qtwebengine". I am trying out a build now, and if you agree and everything goes well, would push like this. Andreas
