Qt requires C++11 support" make error - c++

Question

I tried Compile the latest tiled from source code following the instructions in README.md.
My working environment:
tiled source code: tiled-0.16.1
Mac OS: 10.11.1
Xcode : 7.1
QMake: 3.0
Qt: 5.7.0
Apple LLVM: 7.0.0
But the make failed with the following error:

After doing some research, I tried to add a line CONFIG+= c++11 to the tiled.pro file and then make clean , qmake, make but still I am having the same error ......
tiled.pro :
# Check the Qt version. If QT_VERSION is not set, it is probably Qt 3.
isEmpty(QT_VERSION) {
error("QT_VERSION not defined. Tiled does not work with Qt 3.")
}
include(tiled.pri)
!minQtVersion(5, 1, 0) {
message("Cannot build Tiled with Qt version $${QT_VERSION}")
error("Use at least Qt 5.1.0.")
}
TEMPLATE = subdirs
CONFIG += ordered
CONFIG += c++11
SUBDIRS = src translations
Not sure what goes wrong here.
Any advice will be appreciated, thanks :)
UPDATE:
Tried
QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -std=c++11
and
QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -std=c++0x
Still have the same error ......
I thought it might be in the C++ compile the make command use, here is some information :

Answer 1

I had a similar problem building poppler with Qt wrappers and got the same error: "Qt requires C++11 support".
My setup is:
Mac OS: 10.11.5
Xcode : 7.3.1
QMake: 3.0
Qt: 5.7.0
Apple LLVM: 7.3.0
All I did was:
export CXXFLAGS=-std=c++11
./configure
make
and it worked.

Answer 2

I know it has been a while.
How I finally solve this problem is adding in CMakeLists.txt the following line just after project(MyProject):
add_compile_options(-std=c++11)
That says to cmake, to create a Makefile that will use c++11 solving issues.
