Hi all, I'm trying to build LyX at head, but MSVC isn't too happy with libiconv 1.18:
D:\LyX\lyx\3rdparty\libiconv\1.18\lib\genflags.c(37): error C2016: C requires that a struct or union have at least one member D:\LyX\lyx\3rdparty\libiconv\1.18\lib\genflags.c(38): error C2016: C requires that a struct or union have at least one member D:\LyX\lyx\3rdparty\libiconv\1.18\lib\genflags.c(39): error C2016: C requires that a struct or union have at least one member I'm not sure what I can do, as it's in generated code… Apparently, it's not really legal C code, which MSVC and GCC/Clang resolve differently (e.g., https://stackoverflow.com/questions/78525821/handling-c2016-error-on-windows-using-visual-studio-code ). Here is a short excerpt of the problematic code: /* Consider all encodings, including the system dependent ones. */ #define USE_AIX #define USE_OSF1 #define USE_DOS #define USE_ZOS #define USE_EXTRA struct loop_funcs {}; struct iconv_hooks {}; struct iconv_fallbacks {}; #define ICONV_SURFACE_EBCDIC_ZOS_UNIX 1 #include "converters.h" Some people patch libiconv to avoid this error: https://github.com/AiMiDi/libiconv/issues/1. Others suggest switching to ICU (which Qt already uses). Thibaut Cuvelier
