[vtk-developers] building w/ sip, Qt errors

[Randy Heiland]

Trying to build recent git (8/20/10) w/ sip:  -DVTK_USE_QT=ON   -DVTK_WRAP_PYTHON=ON       -DVTK_WRAP_PYTHON_SIP=ON   -DSIP_EXECUTABLE=/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/bin/sip ...

and get the following compile error:

[ 90%] Built target QVTK 
[ 90%] Generating sipQVTKPythonQVTKWidget.cpp, sipQVTKPythonQVTKInteractor.cpp, sipQVTKPythonQVTKInteractorAdapter.cpp, sipQVTKPythonvtkQtAbstractModelAdapter.cpp, sipQVTKPythonvtkQtAnnotationLayersModelAdapter.cpp, sipQVTKPythonvtkQtTableModelAdapter.cpp, sipQVTKPythonvtkQtTreeModelAdapter.cpp, sipQVTKPythoncmodule.cpp
sip: QFileIconProvider is undefined
make[2]: *** [GUISupport/Qt/sipQVTKPythonQVTKWidget.cpp] Error 1
make[1]: *** [GUISupport/Qt/CMakeFiles/QVTKPython.dir/all] Error 2

in my cmakecache:
QT_QTGUI_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.7.0/include/QtGui
SIP_PYQT_DIR:PATH=/Users/heiland/dev/Python/PyQt-mac-gpl-4.7.4/sip

and indeed I have:
-rw-r--r--@ 1 root  wheel  31 Aug 19 17:30 /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.7.0/include/QtGui/QFileIconProvider

ls /Users/heiland/dev/Python/PyQt-mac-gpl-4.7.4/sip

Also have env var:
QTDIR=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.7.0


Saw the thread at  http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.vtk.user/50529
but unsure of definite solution.  I've built Qt 4.7.0beta2 from source.

thanks, Randy
