Qwt depends on Qt only, not on any particular OS.Quote:

On running the qmake command for building qwt on Mac OS X 10,
I get the following error!
QGDict::hashKeyString: Invalid null key
What do I do to fix this and successfully run qmake?
PS: I have installed QT 3.3.6!
You already have Qt 3.3.6 installed.
- Have you installed Qt yourself? Built Qt from sources?
- Which version of Qwt is this?
- When exactly do you see this error message? Can you post a complete build log?
* Have you installed Qt yourself? Built Qt from sources?
Yes, I have built it from the source following the instruction manual for installing Qt/Mac version 3.3.6 (for Mac OS X).
* Which version of Qwt is this?
Qwt-4.2.0
* When exactly do you see this error message? Can you post a complete build log?
In order to build Qwt, I just gave qmake command on the terminal and this is what i got:
comp:/developer/qwt-4.2.0 user$ qmake
QGDict::hashKeyString: Invalid null key
comp:/developer/qwt-4.2.0 user$
Just to make sure, which qmake is this? The one in Qt 3.3.6? What is the value of the PATH environment variable? What is the output of which qmake? Is there another version of Qt installed on this system?Quote:

Qmake is free software from Trolltech AS.
$PATH gives:
-bash: /Developer/qt/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin: No such file or directory
$QTDIR gives:
-bash: /Developer/qt: is a directory
I have tried installing Qt-4.1.1-mac-opensource, but havent set the evironment variables for it.
Everything looks correct. I had already seen reports about this specific error message, but I thought they had been fixed in newer versions of Qt 3.
Is this QGDict::hashKeyString: Invalid null key error really a showstopper? I mean, qmake may have generated a Makefile despite the error message?
Additionally I think Qwt has not been tested on Mac OS. You might want to ask for help on qwt-interest.
If I ignore this error and proceed with a make command: I get the following :

Does this help? Will making any change in the .pro file help?
Thanks a lot Dimitri for your prompt replies and help so far!
All the missing symbols are part of the Qt library. For some reason, while creating libqwt.4.2.0.dylib, the linker does not link with the Qt library and this seems to be required on Mac OS.
Hurray I finally got QWT running on my Mac!
I removed CONFIG += thread int the .pro file of Qwt and the message went away and compiled fine.
Thank a lot for all your help!
Ah, I see. Qwt expects a threaded version of the Qt library.
Looks like you've built Qt with thread support disabled.
This doesn't explain the cryptic qmake error message though...
In fact Qwt doesn't need threads. The only reason why it is enabled in qwt.pro is that the majority uses the multithreaded Qt library and Qwt/Qt need to be built with the same thread option.Quote:
