Error building creator-widgets

1

Hello
Ive been trying to test out the creator-widgets branch but having problems.
im using linux MInt. The default branch builds perfectly and produces a solid application. *(thanks!) but trying the creator-widgets build i get:

../wfview/bandbuttons.cpp: In member function ‘void bandbuttons::receiveCache(cacheItem)’:
../wfview/bandbuttons.cpp:40:16: warning: this statement may fall through [-Wimplicit-fallthrough=]
   40 |             sub=true;
      |             ~~~^~~~~
../wfview/bandbuttons.cpp:41:9: note: here
   41 |         case funcMainFreq:
      |         ^~~~
^Cmake: *** Deleting file 'bandbuttons.o'
make: *** [Makefile:1469: bandbuttons.o] Interrupt

This is repeated several times. It builds an executable that I can go into settings but when it connects to radio, touching any controls causes segment fault.

I suspect Im jumping ahead and missing something vital!

That is a warning, not an error, and has no impact on operation.

Did you run make install once compiled, as it must install the rig definition files? Also what radio are you using?

Thanks

No!

I was trying not to “break” a working build and just execute within the build directory.

Sorry. I knew it’d be something obvious, I’ll give it a try!

As creator-widgets involves some major changes to the way the software operates, it requires installation as each rig is now defined using individual .rig files which must be copied to a readable system directory.

If you decide to revert to master, running make install again should replace the wfview binary and it has no knowledge of the rig files so should still work.

Thanks

It’s working great! Thanks so much. I feel a fool now! :smiley:

Thanks for a wonderful application
