Installation and Deployment

You mean you need Qt for ARM (armhf)? In this case you will need to build Qt for ARM (the Qt installer only provides "Android armv5" and "Android armv7"). If you want to build your apps on your PC for ARM then you need to cross compile Qt. Or you build on your ARM device, then you can build Qt on that device.

Fixed by moving to another clean machine. Thanks your response.

You're welcome ! Since everything is working now, please mark the thread as solved so other forum users may know a solution has been found :)

Thank you both. I misunderstood how the installers worked (I create from sources on Linux) Cheers

@mossman You should check the PRO file: what is 1/Qt/5.5/clang_64/lib? It does not look like a valid path.

The missing architectures is just a warning. If you need one of them, install the corresponding compiler from the Android package manager. Other than that, it's a warning you can ignore if you don't build for them.

Hi, I also have Qt with mingw492_32 installed on my Windows 10, just tested and the clocks example compiled fine, no problems (i.e. same as for JKSH). That first error message, 'std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::_Rep' is not a type does it reappear as the first one for others of your projects/examples? Also have you tried to update to 5.5.1?

Hi and welcome to devnet, Unless you're using an old version of Qt, the mkspec for VS2015 is already in so you can build Qt with it. As for jom, you can just call it in place of nmake. Use the full path to the exe and you should be good to go. Hope it helps

Hi and welcome to devnet, Not a direct answer but why not use the latest version (i.e. 5.5.1) since your are starting ?

The issue seems to be resolved now :)

Hi and welcome to devnet, Is your problem finalizing your Qt build or just build this example. If the former, just disable building the examples and tests when building Qt. Out of curiosity, why use such an old version of Qt ?

The latest development is that I had over 254 files open at once. No wonder nobody else had encountered this.

@AnatolyS I tried that, nothing changed.

@Pekotte So did you ever fix it?

It won't work, you created everything as root, so normal users can't access it. You have to nuke the build folder and start from clean if you wan't to do it as your current user (and you should, never ever develop as root) you should only sudo if you have to install something in a system folder.
