Issues with 4.3.2 on Mac OS X 10.5


Message 1 in thread

I'm having some issues running my app on OS X 10.5 (Leopard) on  
PowerMac G5. Qt 4.3.2 built without any problems and I tried some of  
the Qt examples and they seem to run fine.

However, my application main window seems to not finish laying out the  
widgets - the central widget ends up at 0,0 on top of some dock  
widgets. When I resize the window, it doesn't update/repaint any of  
the widgets, although the main window frame does resize. The controls  
that I can get to (the ones that aren't obscured by the central  
widget) seem to function correctly. Basically it looks like the main  
window layout is having some problem and not reporting it; I checked  
the console log and there are no error messages.

This same code works fine with Qt 4.3.2 on OS X 10.4 (Tiger), although  
that is on a Intel iMac.

I know this is kind of vague and there are multiple variables, but  
anyone have any ideas what could be the problem?

Thanks.
Michael

Hi Rice !

This is very strange !

I also use 4.3.2 on a Mac Book Pro with 10.5 (10.5.1) and it works 
correctly.

If it is a designer ui try this:

open the ui with designer
right click on a free space in the ui form.
click on Layout and choose one of this. (e.g grid layout).

does this solve the problem?

I hope this help.

Best regards

Heiko

Hi Michael

I reported a similar problem three days ago (Invisible objects on OS X with
Qt 4.3).

I also have PowerPC G5, but is running Mac OS X 10.3.9, Qt 4.3.2 Open Source
(build, not binary), Xcode Tools 1.5 and gcc 3.3 (upgraded with November
2004 GCC 3.3 updater).

I have been in dialogue with qt-bugs, but they could not dig further into it
since I do not have a commersion version. The anticipated that it was
something with my installation.

Can it be a PowerPC G5 issue?

Regards,
Stein erik

Hi Erik !

do you have an example program to test ?

this are my configure parameters for building qt from source and I  
didn't had this problem:

-universal -no-exceptions  -qt-sql-sqlite -qt-sql-mysql -I/usr/local/ 
mysql/include -L/usr/local/mysql/lib -no-qt3support

If you could send me a little application, I try to compile it on my  
maschine to test it, I hope I can help you.

I use Mac OS X 10.5.1 with Xcode 3.0 and Qt-4.3.2 opensource edition.

Best regards

Heiko

Upps !

I'm very sorry, I thought that you have this problem on an Intel  
Mac.., but I now saw, that the problem is on a PowerPC System.

Message 6 in thread

I think this may be a PowerPC thing. I have tried rebuilding 4.3.2 on Leopard with lots of variations of the options (static/dynamic, universal, release/debug, etc.) and none of them fixed my problem with the main window widgets not being layed out.

I downloaded the 4.3.3 20071129 snapshot and built it. After rebuilding my application, it's all working fine - all the layout problems are corrected. That's why I think this is a PowerPC issue with 4.3.2 on Leopard.
