Which is the last version to support Qt4? #243

Open barracuda156 opened 2 days ago

barracuda156 commented 2 days ago

It is nowhere obvious, and even the current code implies that Qt4 should work, otherwise this line makes no sense: https://github.com/parisolab/mathmod/blob/24d03a04c17363520ae7cf077e72a7b8684eb6fd/MathMod.pro#L59-L61

However, the build of 11.1 fails, and even 9.1 fails too.

@parisolab Could you please say which version I should use?

After fixing some errors with v. 9.0, stuck on this:

Looks like at least partly this was breaking: https://github.com/parisolab/mathmod/commit/fc99dd99636b9d043a8caea1980b93ae56fa7dd2

With quite some effort I was able to get v. 7 build with Qt4 running:

mathmod

Hi,You can also try to install compiled MathMod versions for MacOS that comes with the necessary QT lib :https://sourceforge.net/projects/mathmod/files/ Regards,Abderrahman TahaMathMod/K3DSurf developer

@parisolab Thank you for responding.

There are two reasons to go with building from source:

  1. I am making a port for MacPorts, and building from source is a requirement.
  2. I suspect there are no prebuilt binaries for PowerPC, which is also of interest.

P. S. Of course on newer macOS we gonna use Qt5 and the latest version of mathmod.
