C++ Protocol Buffer: Temporary of non-literal type 'google::protobuf::internal::CallOnInitializedMutex <std::mutex>' in a constant expression

Question

I'm using the protoc-3.18.0-win32 version from here. After successfully compiling the .proto files, I get the following error in my QtCreator 5 (C++11) program:

C:\Users\MyName\MyProject\lib\include\google\protobuf\stubs\mutex.h:124: error: temporary of non-literal type 'google::protobuf::internal::CallOnceInitializedMutex<std::mutex>' in a constant expression

lib\include/google/protobuf/stubs/mutex.h:98:7: note: 'google::protobuf::internal::CallOnceInitializedMutex<std::mutex>' is not literal because:

       ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
lib\include/google/protobuf/stubs/mutex.h:98:7: note:   'google::protobuf::internal::CallOnceInitializedMutex<std::mutex>' has a non-trivial destructor

where the erroneous lines of code are:

// Mutex is a natural type to wrap. As both google and other organization have
// specialized mutexes. gRPC also provides an injection mechanism for custom
// mutexes.
class GOOGLE_PROTOBUF_CAPABILITY("mutex") PROTOBUF_EXPORT WrappedMutex {
 public:
#if defined(__QNX__)
  constexpr WrappedMutex() = default;
#else
  constexpr WrappedMutex() {} // <--- Error points here
#endif

Answer 1

In my case it was enough: Go to your opencv folder, find the file \opencv\sources\3rdparty\protobuf\src\google\protobuf\stubs\mutex.h and delete the line after the first else at the WrappedMutex class,

class GOOGLE_PROTOBUF_CAPABILITY("mutex") PROTOBUF_EXPORT WrappedMutex {
 audience:
#if defined(__QNX__)
  constexpr WrappedMutex() = default;
#else
  constexpr WrappedMutex() {} // **Delete this line**
#endif
