FreeFileSync 9.7 source code
running in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
g++ (GCC) 7.2.0

What I really want is the latest version of FreeFileSync in my Ubuntu 14.04 distribution. I decided to try building from source since only up to FreeFileSync version 7.7 is available via `sudo apt install freefilesync`.

When I run `make` in `FreeFileSync_9.7_Source-20180115/FreeFileSync/Source` I get:

gabriel$ make

UPDATE: in my long long long process of trying to resolve dependencies and get things compiled (including gcc) so that I can compile FreeFileSync, I think I may have some bad object files or something as remnants of a previous `make` attempt sitting in my FreeFileSync build folder.

So....I removed it, extracted the source code anew, ran `make` again, and now have these errors instead (especially see bold part below):

$ make
mkdir -p ../Obj/FFS_GCC_Make_Release/ffs/src/ui/
g++ -std=c++14 -pipe -DWXINTL_NO_GETTEXT_MACRO -I../.. -I../../zenXml -include "zen/i18n.h" -Wall -O3 -DNDEBUG `wx-config --cxxflags --debug=no` -pthread `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0` `pkg-config --cflags unity` -DHAVE_UBUNTU_UNITY -c ui/main_dlg.cpp -o ../Obj/FFS_GCC_Make_Release/ffs/src/ui/main_dlg.o

Next problem possibly found. I need to update wxWidgets from 3.0.3 to 3.1.0.

http://docs.wxwidgets.org/3.0.3/classwx_list_box.html - notice class wxListBox does NOT have the GetTopItem() public method, but version 3.1.0 does: http://docs.wxwidgets.org/3.1.0/classwx_list_box.html

wxWidgets 3.1.0 installed. Now I'm back to getting the original "warn_static not declared" errors as indicated above in my 1st post.

I have been trying to compile on Fedora 27, so my experience is a little different. Maybe curly braces either in the FreeFileSync code are not perfectly balanced (as suggested by your bold sections of output), or maybe even in your gcc implementation. It looks like you've got the gcc source code there.

About warn_static, I found a solution in the patch at file https://github.com/flathub/org.freefilesync.FreeFileSync/blob/master/patch01-build.patch. In brief, you should add
#include <zen/warn_static.h>
to a few files, including ../../zen/file_io.cpp, ../../zen/shell_execute.h, ui/progress_indicator.cpp, and lib/versioning.cpp.

Perusing how other people have prepared their compilations of FreeFileSync might help: https://github.com/search?o=desc&q=freefilesync+warn_static&s=indexed&type=Code&utf8=%E2%9C%93

edit: add more content

Regarding the "globalSettings.gui.cfgFileHistFirstItemPos = m_listBoxHistory->GetTopItem();" problem, I've seen implementations that replace it with this sed:
sed 's/m_listBoxHistory->GetTopItem()/0/g' -i %{pname}/Source/ui/main_dlg.cpp
Which makes the whole line:
globalSettings.gui.cfgFileHistFirstItemPos = 0;

Thanks for your help! That info about adding the #include was very helpful. I made several minor changes to the source code, following that example you sent me, and I got it to fully build.

See my executable here now for FreeFileSync 9.7 in Ubuntu 14.04: https://github.com/ElectricRCAircraftGuy/FreeFileSync/tree/master/FreeFileSync_9.7_Source/FreeFileSync/Build

But....I can only get it to run now if I do the following each time I boot up:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib64/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Source: https://stackoverflow.com/a/20357035/4561887

Otherwise I get the following errors. How can I fix this now?

Note: I'm asking around on this one. I really just want FreeFileSync 9.7 to run in Ubuntu 14.04. I don't care how I get it done.
