error: unable to find string literal operator "" SLASHES

Question

I'm trying to build qtCreator 2.3 with gcc 4.7 and I'm getting following error:

error: unable to find string literal operator ""

I'm using mingw32-make -lto as qtCreator source dir. Any thoughts?

What do you mean by "SLASHES"? Is there more to the error than you're showing here? – Basin

Answer 1

Just Googled this and saw the following comment on this page

The subject error occurs because in the new c++11 a space between string concatenation is mandatory

It may be related to what you're seeing.

apparently this is legal: #define TEST(Name) "TEST" Name"TEST" but this is not: #define TEST(Name) "TEST"Name"TEST", so you have to have a space after the literal, but not before?! Oh well... Thanks, that fixed my problem! – Aphra
