Problem compiling luminancehdr on mac OS X 12

Software Luminance HDR
1

I git cloned commit 9d81d9906d2b7daa0e5f1a23738ec6523723a478
used gcc Apple LLVM version 8.1.0 (clang-802.0.38)

All the prerequisites seem to have installed ok, but I always get this error. Also tried the qtwebkit patch to no avail.

@HIRAM

  1. Which version of Qt5 are you using?
  2. Try editing cmake/Internationalization.cmake and changing QCoreApplication to QApplication either just for HDRHTMLDIR or for all three lines in that IF(APPLE) part.

Ping @fcomida

  1. Have qt5.7.1
4

That seemed to have fixed part of the issue, perhaps? Still getting this error…

Hello, the Windows build is with Qt 5.8, on Linux it has been built with Qt from 5.5 to 5.8.
It builds on Windows which has a similar code for HDRHTML. Can you try adding #include to hdrhtml.cpp.

By the way, Davide has no time for LHDR anymore, sadly. We are looking for a maintainer for OSX, what’s your experience Hiram?

Thank you Franco.
I tried adding a line #include into hdrhtml.cpp but get an additional error as I haven’t specified a filename along with the previous errors.
As far as Mac package maintaining I’ve got no experience… Scored an A+ in ANSI C and abstract data structures back in my college days, I’ve done some basic with excel in thermodynamics, other sciency stuff.
If I can get a working app, I’d be happy to share it.

7

Maybe worth to get in contact with @partha and @ion12? They make the OSX builds for RawTherapee.

8

Just finished downgrading to qt56-* but same errors.
Also tried qt55, same errors.

9

Qt5.7 should be fine. What’s the error after adding #include <QApplication>?

10

Open hdrhtml.cpp and change line 42: #ifdef WIN32 with #if defined (WIN32) || defined (__APPLE__)
This should work. Let me know.

12

What’s the error after adding #include ?

This also generates these errors:

Allright, I guess I got the fix, there were other changes to make as well. I just pushed it, pull latest commits and start with a clean build once again.

Breezed thru previously offending code but threw this at me:

16

Did you start from a clean buildroot?

17

Yes that was from a fresh clone.

18

@HIRAM not just fresh clone but also fresh build dir?

19

Yes, start again from a fresh build directory. How was boost compiled/installed? Googleing around I found you may need -stdlib=libc++ flag and maybe an additional -lc++abi linker flag, I’m not sure. This is currently disabled on cmake/CompilerSettings.cmake under “clang” section. I’ve been able to compile LHDR with clang here in Linux but clang on Linux uses libstdc++ (like everything else).

20

Yes an empty build dir was always used.

21

Boost came in thru Mac ports.
