Mac build problem
Prakash
I had to remove the following from the qwit.pro file so that I could
build successfully.
ppc \
ppc64 \
Initially QtCreator tried to build using ppc64 config, it failed
complaining on incompatible sdk. So I removed it. Then it tried to
build using ppc config, again failed. Now it builds successfully
without those 2 lines.

to install all the SDKs.
Make sure you do not check in your modified .pro file.

planning to checkin either.
So what else do I need to get besides Qt & QtCreator?

I think all you need is the 10.5 SDK. Do you have that installed?
After that, there is a bug in qmake that builds an incorrect Xcode project file. Here's a diff of how I edited project.pbxproj just now:
--- project-orig.pbxproj 2010-03-03 00:40:57.000000000 -0500

The problem is the line in qwit.pro that reads:
DEFINES += 'VERSION=\\\"1.0-beta\\\"'
But the headers need it in that format, so I assume the .pro -> Xcode converter is what is broken.
Having said all this, I haven't really built qwit recently. I just tried and got lots of errors about missing "bits/c++config.h", which is bizarre, since that comes from <string> inside the SDK. Ah well.
Good luck,

for universal, last time I build it was for x86 only.
I am not a expert on development on mac, so I took this as a starting
point to learn development on mac.
As of now I do not have ppc or ppc64 defined in the pro file. Still it
builds and works like a charm. So Is it correct to say ppc or ppc64
is for Mac OS X or for powerpc?

I am sorry if I did not mention this before, I am on x86 mac, I am
pretty sure of that :)
For some reason if I have ppc or ppc64 defined in the .pro file,
compilation throws the following error.
"You are building a 64-bit application, but using a 32-bit version of
Qt. Check your build configuration."
I was talking about building qt from src. The build instruction says
that to put -universal in the configure command for universal qt
build.

to summarize,
* I am not able to build qwit due to the presence of ppc and ppc64 in
the pro file.
* Qwit build without them and letter learned that ppc is required for
universal build on mac
* I did not build Qt with -universal option so the qt libs are not
universal and do not link correctly.
* That is why I planed to build Qt with -universal option.

correctly.
I will then notify Nokia that they need to better document the Qt sdks
for mac. i.e. mention something like universal or not etc.

after building Qt with -universal option.
For now, I will disable universal build i.e. ppc & ppc64 so that I can
hack around with the code and figure out what is going on with
universal stuff.
It took me 4 hrs to build Qt, not planning to do that again anytime
soon.
