"No match for operator" when including QtSql library in QT - c++

Upon writing include for the QtSql library into the code, any attempt at compilation returns "no match for operator". Deleting/commenting out the line with "include" gets rid of the errors.
The exact errors that occur are:
no match for 'operator==' (operand types are 'std::thread::native_handle_type{aka ptw32_handle_t}' and 'std::thread::native_handle_type{aka ptw32_handle_t}')
no match for 'operator<' (operand types are 'std::thread::native_handle_type{aka ptw32_handle_t}' and 'std::thread::native_handle_type{aka ptw32_handle_t}')

I am using QT 5.12.0 with QT Creator 4.8.0 (MinGW 7.3.0 64 bit is set as compiler).
The program was installed with an offline installer, so it's not custom-built, which is why I'm hesitant to consider it a bug in program itself. Searching for similar issues also didn't give me any results.
I have previously solved similar sql-related programming problems using an earlier version of QT on a 32-bit computer, so I'm almost sure the code is fine as well.
Is this an issue with compiler settings? Or is that some complication in a newer version of QT?

C++17 filesystem using nuwen MinGW on Windows 10

I wanted to try out the new filesystem library in C++17, so tried copying the std::filesystem::current_path example from cppreference.com and compiling it using the latest version (16.0) of the MinGW distribution from nuwen.net on my Windows 10 x64 machine. This includes gcc v8.1 which should support the filesystem library according to cppreference.com compiler support page.
Here is the code that I am trying to compile:
#include <iostream>
#include <filesystem>
namespace fs = std::filesystem;
int main()
{
std::cout << "Current path is " << fs::current_path() << '\n';
}
And the compiler command I am using:
g++ -std=c++17 filesystem_test.cpp
Here is the error I am getting when trying to compile:

Using recursive_directory_iterator in an old version of boost?

I need to recursively iterate through a directory; I got a pretty nice function for it from another thread here on SO; adapted it just a tiny bit for my purposes and it works perfectly on Mac with boost 1.62 and clang.
However, we're using SemaphoreCI (based on ubuntu 14.04 LTS and boost 1.54) and I just cannot get this to compile under those conditions.
#include <boost/algorithm/string/replace.hpp>
#include <boost/filesystem.hpp>
#include <boost/range.hpp>
void copyDirectoryRecursively(const fs::path& sourceDir, const fs::path& destinationDir)
{
if (!fs::exists(sourceDir) || !fs::is_directory(sourceDir))
{
throw std::runtime_error("Source directory " + sourceDir.string() + " does not exist or is not a directory");
}
if (!fs::create_directory(destinationDir) && !fs::exists(destinationDir))
{
throw std::runtime_error("Cannot create destination directory " + destinationDir.string());
}
for (const auto& dirEnt : fs::recursive_directory_iterator{sourceDir})
{
const auto& path = dirEnt.path();
auto relativePathStr = path.string();
boost::algorithm::replace_first(relativePathStr, sourceDir.string(), "");
try {
if (!fs::is_directory(path)) { fs::copy_file(path, destinationDir / relativePathStr); }
else { fs::copy_directory(path, destinationDir / relativePathStr); }
}
catch (...) {
throw std::runtime_error("Cannot copy file " + path.string() + ", because it already exists in the destination folder.");
}
}
}
Here's the error I'm getting,
GCC:

Error while copying one vector to other c++

I have overloaded allocator for most of the stl containers below is the code. The code is from here

typedef typename std::allocator<T>::const_reference const_reference;
typedef typename std::allocator<T>::size_type size_type;
pointer allocate (size_type n, typename std::allocator<void>::const_pointer hint=0)
{
std::cerr << "allocate..." << std::endl;
return std::allocator<T>{}.allocate(n, hint);
}
void deallocate (pointer p, size_type n)
{
std::cerr << "deallocate..." << std::endl;
return std::allocator<T>{}.deallocate(p, n);
}
template <class Type> struct rebind
{
typedef MyAllocator<Type> other;
};
MyAllocator()
{
}
MyAllocator(const MyAllocator<T>& other )
{
}
template< class U >
MyAllocator( const MyAllocator<U>& other )

};
} // namespace outside
namespace outer

template<class T>
using vector = ::std::vector<T, outside::MyAllocator<T>>;
template<class T>
using list = ::std::list<T, outside::MyAllocator<T>>;
}
int main()
{
outer::vector<int> myVector1;
outer::vector<int> myVector2;
myVector1.push_back(10);
myVector1.push_back(20);
// myVector2 = myVector1; // Getting compilation error

std::list<int> myList2;

Copying one vector to another vector is giving me error. While for the same code copying one list to another list is working fine.

vector::operator= requires vector::operator!=, which requires allocator::operator!=, which doesn't exist. Without it, the function can't be created. Simply add an operator!= to your allocator. While you're at it, also make sure you have all the other required allocator functions. If memory serves me right, you're missing a fair number.
Change the definition to struct MyAllocator: public std::allocator<T> and the code will compile.

GCC: Why does an error in one line of code (comparison of string and NULL) cause a long list of error messages?

I've been curious about why one error can cause the compiler to generate a very long list of error messages. The following example is the result of an erroneous comparison between an element of a vector<string> and NULL at line 100 of main.cpp under GCC 4.8.1:
> g++ -g3 -std=c++11 main.cpp functions.cpp

This can make it very hard to understand the problem. What is the reason for this behavior?
If you have an expression of the form vec == NULL, the compiler applies ADL to find an appropriate operator== to call. If it can't find a single one it outputs all operator== candidates found in all namespaces considered, and the reason they did not fit here.
One of those can look like this:
In file included from [..] main.cpp:12:
[..]:216:5: note: template<class _StateT> bool std::operator==(const std::fpos<_StateT>&, const std::fpos<_StateT>&)
operator==(const fpos<_StateT>& __lhs, const fpos<_StateT>& __rhs)
^

if(args[1] == NULL) {

We couldn't match the first parameter to the first argument as std::string isn't derived from any fpos-specialization (also std::string doesn't have any appropriate conversion operators, but that isn't mentioned here). If you defined an operator== that can't be found/called, wouldn't you like to know the reason from the compilers view? (Especially if you don't have a clue yourself)
This can be very useful at times. When it isn't, ignore it. In most cases C++-programmers immediately see and understand what causes the error message (and its enourmos note-section).
This may help in situations like this (you got a large volume of template related message).
Whether your are using make or directly using the compiler, try to pipe the stderr to a file in my example
make 2> error.log
The use any editor open the error.log file. Search for file name of the source code you wrote. There should only be one or two lines that are interesting to you. For example:
mysourcefile.cpp:51:20: required from here
This is where the problem happened; look harder here.

std::count errors

temp_holder.clear();
temp_holder << n;
n_str = temp_holder.str();
int f = count(n_str.begin(), n_str.end(), a);
That's my code, and this is g++ output:

I honestly think I'm using std::count from correctly, according to cplusplus.com.
Any idea of what I'm doing wrong?
EDIT
Full code:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <sstream>
#include <climits>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;
int max(int a, int b) {
return (a > b) ? a : b;
}
int main() {
string a;
cin >> a;
int c;
cin >> c;
int q;
cin >> q;
string cases[q];
int max_case = INT_MIN;
int temp;
for (int i = 0; i < q; i++) {
cin >> temp;
max_case = max(temp, max_case);
stringstream current_case_holder;
current_case_holder << temp;
cases[i] = current_case_holder.str();
}
int sequence[max_case];
int n;
stringstream temp_holder;
string n_str;
for (int i = 0; i < max_case; i++) {
n = 1;
while (true) {
temp_holder.clear();
temp_holder << n;
n_str = temp_holder.str();
int f = count(n_str.begin(), n_str.end(), a);
//}
n++;
}
}
return 0;
}
The first error tells you all you need to know:
In instantiation of ‘typename std::iterator_traits<_InputIterator>::difference_type std::count(_IIter, _IIter, const _Tp&)
[with _IIter = __gnu_cxx::__normal_iterator<char*, std::basic_string<char> >;
_Tp = std::basic_string<char>;
typename std::iterator_traits<_InputIterator>::difference_type = long int]’
This indicates that you're passing a std::string object for the third argument to std::count, which is wrong; you need to pass a char object instead, since you're effectively iterating over a std::string, and std::string::value_type is char.
