[Solved] ERROR QOpenGLWidget example - Undefined symbol

SGaist

Since you only have it on your host, how do you expect your device to use it to run your application ? What device is it ? Currently most of them use e.g. sdcards that are generally big enough even for development.

You don't need to copy absolutely everything, the plugins/libraries your application is using would be enough

I copied the libQt5OpenGL.so.5.4.0 and I created the link of libQt5OpenGL.so on my target. I set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the Build environnement on Qt Creator to the folder where I copied the libraries but it is still not working...
What am I doing wrong ?

I don't understand why is it so difficult to get a QOpenGLWidget working. I search for it and the code is with the QtWidgets.
Why a QMessageBox will work perfectly and not a QOpenGLWidget ? What is the difference between them ?

SGaist

It's the Run environment that you must update, it's when you run your application that LD_LIBRARY_PATH is used.

QMessageBox only relies on the widget module that seems to be properly deployed

I tried it, setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH inside the Run Environment but I am still getting the error....

MorganeJ

I also tried directly on the board by setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH inside my terminal, running my binary file but I am still getting exactly the same error. Does it mean that I do not copy the good libraries ? What are they exactly ?

SGaist

Which library did you copy exactly ?

MorganeJ

Hi,

Actually I solved the problems. I copied the libQt5Core.so.5, libQt5Gui.so.5, libQt5OpenGL.so.5 and libQt5Widgets.so.5 in the same directory of the binary file and I do not get the errors about the libraries.

Now I'm dealing with the plugins "xcb" or "eglfs".
First I do not know which one to use for an embedded device. I found somewhere that eglfs is the best. Is it right ?

I'm getting a "Could not create the egl surface: error = 0×300b" when using eglfs...

Any idea ? Should I create a new topic for that ?

SGaist

eglfs best ? Depends on your use case. If it's a single application then yes since you won't have the Xorg layer in between.

Yes you should open a new one. In between, are you running an X server when you try to use the eglfs plugin ?

MorganeJ

I will use XCB as people are recommending this one for my device. I created a new thread for my XCB-related-errors as it is not related to this one anymore.

Thank you for your help!!
