QT For ARM-Cortex-A15
-
Hi dear friends,
I install QT Creator 5.5 on my ubuntu host and i'm attempting to cross-compile my application to arm-cortex-a15 based platform. In order to do it i used qmake, In the mkspecs directory i found only the arm-gnueabi compiler and i need the arm-gnueabihf compiler. The compiler arm-gnueabihf is already installed on my host and i create on the mkspecs the folder arm-gnueabihf with the correct compiler sets for the spec option in the qmake. When i run the qmake i got the Makefile withe the correct compilers settings but when i try to compile it i get on the linker phase errror indicator that i can't solve. I attached the compilation results and the error:/opt/Qt5.0.1/5.0.1/gcc/bin/uic ../GUI/mainwindow.ui -o ui_mainwindow.h

Thanks for your help,

Hi and welcome to devnet,
Did you first cross-compile Qt ?
-
Sorry, my question might have not been clear enough. Let's try again: before compiling your project, did you, as a first step, cross-compile the Qt framework itself ?

SGaist Hi,
The only thing that i did is downloading the QT creator 5.5 and install it, I created simple GUI that work on my host and now i wish to compile my GUI for my target that is a ARM based Embedded Ubuntu 14.04 32-bit.
So i didn't compile the QT framework.Regards, Yakov S.

@Jaykovs You need Qt framework libraries available for your target platform. In your case, it's very likely that you need to build them by yourself, and mainly, by cross-compiling them. Remember that Qt Creator is just an IDE (a good one indeed) but your application depends on Qt libraries, not the IDE.

@Jaykovs I don't know any guide for specific platform, but I'd follow some of the guides to cross-compile Qt (mainly for Raspberry Pi) that can help you as a reference. BTW, what device is the one you're using?
