Installing for WinCE

pinibz

Hi

I am new at Qt and trying to install Qt for WinCE. I searched the forums for my problem but didn't see something quite like my problem.
So:
I followed the instructions here:
http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/Building-Qt-4.7.4-for-WindowsCE-StandardSDK

I try to install for VS2008, standard WinCE 5 SDK.

When doing:
configure -platform win32-msvc2008 -xplatform wince50standard-armv4i-msvc2008 -release -D QT_NO_CURSOR=1 -qt-sql-sqlite

(I just changed QT_NO_CURSOR=1 to QT_NO_CURSOR=0 but this is not relevant to my problem, I think).

When it does the nmake I get in the end:

    cl -c -nologo -Zm200 -Zc:wchar_t- -O2 -MD -MP -W3 -w34100 -w34189 -DUNIC

And obviously it looks like it failed.

Any idea?

thanks in advance.

Welcome to devnet

The cross compilation I did used only "-D QT_NO_CURSOR" without assignment.

pinibz

Thanks.
That would suggest that QT_NO_CURSOR will still be defined. I do want to use the cursor support. May I should just ommit this.
I am not sure it's related to the nmake errors though.

Frankly, I do not know.

I have compiled Qt for WinCE 5 a while ago using msvc 2005. Besides the obvious differences for referencing msvc2005 I have used "-D QT_NO_CURSOR" only. So, you have added "-release" and "-qt-sql-sqlite".

After the configuration there is a batch called: "setcepaths wince50standard-armv4i-msvc2005"
and the start of the nmake through the vs command prompt.

Hi,

I met a similar problem and if you don't find the solution, please let's have a look in your environment var if you didn't define a QMAKESPEC var with a mkspecs which is not the target one. If QMAKESPEC is defined, the configure tool keeps the content of this var even if you specify a different -xplatform target on the configure cmdline. You may try to remove the QMAKESPEC or to give it the target mkspecs. It solved my problem.

Regards.
David.
