qmake error: sible braces mismatch %s:%d
I’ve just received this error with qmake on windows. Googling for it showed no results so after i’ve solved the problem i decided to put it here.
The error was near a conditional block like:
-
-
unix{
-
}
-
win32{
-
QMAKE_UIC+ = -L ../bin/plugin
-
}
-
…after searching for unclosed/missing braces for a while without any result and comparing svn versions i’ve finally found the problem. On the QMAKE_UIC linke instead of “+=” somehow ( probably kdevelop’s qmake parser/generator ) got saved as “+ =” (notice the space). The problem would have been much easier to solve if the error message wasn’t so misleading.
-
-
#bad version
-
QMAKE_UIC + = -L ../bin/plugin
-
#good version
-
QMAKE_UIC += -L ../bin/plugin
-
So if you see this error look for operators that might have a space inserted in the middle. Hope this will save somebody’s time.
