I installed the CDT package via Install Software option in Eclipse, and after that, I installed the Command Line Tools using Xcode on my Mac. I am running Eclipse Juno on Mountain Lion.
After installing command line tools, I exported the paths with:
export CC=/usr/bin/gcc
export CC=/usr/bin/g++
In eclipse, I'm getting this error with auto-generated HelloWorld executable projects and autotools:
Error 127 occured while running autoreconf
make: *** No rule to make target 'all'.
From what I have found, the second has to do with g++, but I'm not really sure what the issue is.
I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.
Hopefully you've installed the XCode command line tools.
Also you might need to configure the project.
Ideally you invoke aclocal, automake --add-missing and then autoconf.
Then run configure and make. You might need the -i option for autoconf.

I have never used qt before, but I got a task to build an already existing application for Windows and Mac using the newest version of qt. What I have done so far is:
Installed Visual Studio Professional 2017.
Installed the latest Qt 5 Open Source.
Note: when installing the QT 5 I installed all of the components under QT/ QT 5.10.1 which were: qt 5.10.1 components and under QT/Tools I installed QT Creator 4.6.0 CDB Debugger Support and MinGW 5.3.0 : qt 5 Tools
I cloned the branch from GitHub that I wanted to build to C:/Projects
Then in Git Bash I cd to the project and tried to run qmake. The first time I had this problem:
"bash: qmake: command not found"
After searching into the problem I found out that I haven't added "Qt/5.10.1/msvc2017_64/bin" to PATH and I added it. Now when I echo $PATH I can see the directory added.
Now after bash recognises qmake and I try to run it it says:
Project ERROR: Cannot run target compiler 'cl'. Output:
===================
Maybe you forgot to setup the environment?
I have no idea how to fix the problem due to the fact that I have never used QT to build anything before. Can you help me?
In the read me file for the application I am trying to build it says:
Step-by-step instructions
1. Clone this branch
2. cd into the project
3. Run qmake - this wil generate Makefiles for all of the project's modules
4.Run make (Use the -j4 of -j flags - this greatly speeds up the build process - see the manual page for make for more info). You can also use the -s flag to silence the output - this also wins you a few seconds.
I am a bit puzzled by the instructions, it does not say to run qmake -project anywhere, but there is a qt project file in the directory that I cd to. Does this mean that I don't have to run qmake -project?
Also I have no idea how to run make by using the -j4 and -j flags and how to run flags in general. Could someone help me?
I believe that for the Cannot Run Compiler 'cl' issue I have some kind of a problem with the set up. Did I install too many components or is it to do with the VS setup?
I highly recommend you to install Qt from the Qt installer, and to use Qt Creator.
However, if you want to use it from source, you first need to get a compiler (ex: MinGW). Then you need to execute the instructions, but you need to use a MinGW (or whatever compiler you use) command prompt, which will automatically set the environment variables needed.
Note that this is Windows specific. On mac and linux, the compiler's environment variables are already set in the default command prompt (if there is a compiler, obviously).
I have installed QtCreator (4.2.2) and cmake (3.8.1) through homebrew on Mac OS 10.12.4.
I am importing an existing CMake project but when QtCreator is running cmake, I encounter the following error:
Running "/usr/local/bin/ccmake /Users/matthieu/project/source '-GCodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles' -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:STRING=/usr/bin/g++ -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER:STRING=/usr/bin/gcc '-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH:STRING=%{Qt:QT_INSTALL_PREFIX}' -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE:STRING=" in /Users/matthieu/project/source/build-decaf-Desktop-Default.
Error opening terminal: unknown.
In QtCreator > Preferences > Environment > System, the terminal is set to:
/Applications/Qt\ Creator.app/Contents/MacOS/../Resources/scripts/openTerminal.command
My TERM env variable is set to xterm-256color. I have tried xterm-color as well but with no luck.
I start to run out of ideas if someone has any suggestions!
I suspect your Qt Creator build settings have been set up to point at ccmake instead of cmake as the CMake executable. Have a look in the Build & Run section under the CMake tab and see what executable has been set. The cmake executable is the command line tool that you want, ccmake is a curses-based UI front end to CMake meant for interactive editing of the CMake cache.
The TERM isn't being recognized. Try stepping down to something more common, like
TERM=xterm
I'm trying to follow this tutorial to get started with OpenGL: http://www.learnopengl.com/#!Getting-started/Creating-a-window and it requires downloading glfw and CMake.
I have set the downloaded glfw folder as the source code folder and I have created inside that folder another one called "build" which I then set as the build one for the binaries, as the tutorial asks.
I click on "Configure" and I select XCode as the Generator, since I'm on a Mac.
The problem is that when I try to configure the project CMake gives me this error:
The C compiler identification is unknown
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:3 (project):
No CMAKE_C_COMPILER could be found.
Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "/Users/standard/Desktop/glfw-3.2.1/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
See also "/Users/standard/Desktop/glfw-3.2.1/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log".
I've already read this question, but as far as I can understand, it doesn't have what I need:
CMake error at CMakeLists.txt:30 (project): No CMAKE_C_COMPILER could be found
If you have installed Xcode or Command Line Tools for Xcode, try this:
sudo xcode-select --reset
This happened to me with Xcode10 / Cmake 3.12 after installing Homebrew. Running sudo xcode-select --reset fixed it for me.
Did you install Xcode and Xcode Commandline Tools?
xcode-select --install
If you have Xcode Commandline Tools installed, you should no longer be receiving the xcrun is missing error.
How did you install Cmake? Once you have ensured that Xcode Commandline Tools is installed, please completely remove Cmake from your system and reinstall it. You have a screwed up configuration. There are ways to debug and fix it without a clean install, but since you are new to this, it will be the easiest and lest frustrating way.
Failing that if you do have Xcode Commandline Tools installed, hstdt suggested trying this:
sudo xcode-select --reset
This error means CMake cannot find your standard C/C++ Compiler, looks like you'll need to export the environment variables yourself. you can find the path of your C/C++ compiler with:
xcrun -find c++
xcrun -find cc
Then afterwards when you have the paths, create two variables inside the gui. If you are running it from the cline, it would be something like
cmake -D CMAKE_C_COMPILER="/path/to/your/c/compiler/executable" -D CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER="/path/to/your/cpp/compiler/executable" ...
On a fresh Xcode install the command line tools complain about agreeing to the EULA which build tools don't like. Which you can do with:
sudo xcodebuild -license
If you are on a Mac computer and have Homebrew, you can simply upgrade cmake, forcing the compiler to be reconfigured:
brew upgrade cmake
In my case, I needed to install CMake from CMake official site, download the .dmg, install it and then add the CMake folder the system's PATH.
Before the installation, the output of which cmake is /usr/local/bin/cmake.
After the installation it should be something like /Applications/CMake.app/Contents/bin/cmake.
This has solved the issue for me.
I get exactly this error if ccache is enabled on my machine. Disabling ccache fixed the problem for me.
To check if ccache is enabled, print the systems variables CC or CXX:
echo $CC
echo $CXX
This prints something like the following: ccache clang -Qunused-arguments -fcolor-diagnostics. (CC or CXX are typically overridden by the .bashrc or .zshrc file.)
To disable ccache, use the following:
CC=clang
CXX=clang++
Then rebuild the cmake project:
cmake -G Xcode <path/to/CMakeLists.txt>
Apparently, it is possible to use CMake's Xcode generator also in combination with ccache, as is described here. But I never tried it out myself.
I got this error when I had an invalid value set for CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT. I was trying to give it the name of the SDK e.g. "macOS 10.13". Setting it to the full path of the SDK resolved the issue.
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.13.sdk
Compiler detection appears to be broken with Xcode 10 and older versions of CMake. I know that it broke for me with CMake 2.2 and upgrading to the latest (2.13) solved it for me. It was working fine with Xcode 9 and it broke with the upgrade. I tried the other solutions (all good depending on your situation) but upgrading CMake fixed the issue.
If you are on CLion and facing this issue try changing the C and C++ compiler location inside Toolchains settings to the latest one. the default GCC installation directory is /usr/local/Cellar/gcc/...
after I upgrade Xcode to new verison, I met this error, then I upgrade my cmake version, problem solved.
For anyone coming to this question nowadays from google, my problem was fixed via
xcodebuild -runFirstLaunch
I found this by inspecting CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log
I'm on Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.2. As far as I know, wx-widgets were preinstalled on older versions on OS X (probably that's why google search doesn't help), but that's not the case anymore. I need to get started on a C++ project using wx-widgets, using any IDE (Eclipse, Codelite, or whatever is best). However, I simply cannot get wx-widgets to work. After a workaround I was able to compile on my machine wxWidgets-3.0.2. I called from terminal make and make install, but the libraries seem to not be correctly installed. Indeed, if I create a project on Codelite I get many "wx-config: Command not found" errors. Can someone help me to get me started on installing the libraries and creating a simple project that includes wx-widgets?
I use homebrew which is installed by copying and pasting one line from the homebrew website.
Then, the installation of wxWidgets is simplicity itself with:
brew install wxmac
Any problems, you just call the doctor with
brew doctor
Now you have a proper package manager you can install ImageMagick, GNU Parallel, GNU awk, Oxygen, webkit2html, zeromq, tree, SDL, Redis, sqlitebrowser, pandoc, exiftool, ffmpeg, 7zip, awscli, etc...
You can then compile your wxWidgets programs with
g++ `wx-config --cxxflags` -o sample sample.cpp `wx-config --libs`
I can successfully compile and install wxWidgets on Yosemite with these commands:
- Get the latest sources of wxWidgets 3 from wxwidgets.org and unpack them.
- Move the unpacked directory someplace where you want to keep it.
- Open a terminal and change into the wxwidgets directory.
- Create two directories: build-release and build-debug (don't rename those!)
- Change into wxwidgets/build-release
- Run
../configure --with-osx_cocoa --disable-shared --with-opengl --enable-universal-binary=i386,x86_64 --with-macosx-sdk=/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk --with-macosx-version-min=10.6
- Run make, then sudo make install
- Change into wxwidgets/build-debug
- Run
../configure --enable-debug --with-osx_cocoa --with-opengl --enable-universal-binary=i386,x86_64 --with-macosx-sdk=/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk --with-macosx-version-min=10.6
- Run make, then sudo make install
Be aware that these instructions are for compiling against the Mac OS X 10.6 SDK, which I have at /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk. You can try to omit the --with-macosx-sdk parameter altogether, which will compile using the latest SDK. Also ensure that you have Xcode and the command line developer tools installed.
These commands will install static libraries for the release build and shared libraries for the debug build. You can change this by supplying or omitting the --disable-shared parameter.
The instructions for building and installing wxWidgets are included in the distribution and can also be viewed online.
If your IDE doesn't find wx-config, you must not have the location where you installed it (/usr/local/bin) by default in your PATH. Add it there to fix this.
Like suggested by VZ, you must change your PATH.
But not the variable PATH in your environment Windows but the variable PATH in your C++ project. It's strange but maybe it's different.
Go into (for eclipse) :
C/C++Build->Environment->PATH (add the path of wx-config in the beginning).
Press : Apply, OK and build the project.
I think is strange that Eclipse don't update the PATH after rebooting the OS. Maybe we must add an option to Eclipse for building WxWidget and force Eclipse to update the PATH, but I don't know it.
This change work for me.
Eclipse / MinGW-MSYS / WxWidget 2.8
After upgrading to Lion, and upgrading Xcode, make can't seem to locate headers and libs. I looked in /usr/include. The only thing in there was 'parallels-server'. So, I renamed /usr/include to /usr/include.old, and made a symlink to:
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/usr/include/
This is pretty evil. But, make can now find headers. Still can't locate libs (e.g., lcrt1.10.6.o).
What is the correct way to solve both the include and lib problems?
Thanks!
After downloading Xcode 4 from the App Store, try running "/Applications/Install Xcode.app".
From me, just downloading the Xcode Command line tools did the trick. (For that, of course, I had first to install Xcode itself, which I installed trough App Store.
Start Xcode
Open Xcode→Preferences...
Select the Downloads tab
Install the Command line tools
That installs a few packages, see /var/db/receipts. The package that contains /usr/include is com.apple.pkg.DevSDKLeo.
I don't think xcode-select is needed, but I had run that command before I downloaded the Command line tools, so I don't know for sure.
To get Xcode to populate the /usr/include directory, run the following command:
sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/
You may need to install the Xcode Command Line Tools within Xcode for this to work. Open the Preferences menu, then under Downloads install Command Line Tools.
The above answer by njamesp also addresses the following error:
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
I received this error when trying to compile code on my 10.7 system after setting it up from a 10.5 time machine, so I assume the wrong version of xcode was installed on my system.
