cross compile of qt 4.8.5 for friendlyarm tiny 6410

sachin786

./configure --host=arm-linux --prefix=/home/tslib --enable-shared=yes --enable-static=yes
also when i execute above command at the last line i get some sentence

configure.ac:7: installing ./missing' plugins/Makefile.am: installing ./depcomp'

is that any error??

SGaist

Where did you get the instruction to cross-compile tslib ?

sachin786

from these site and changes according to my compiler path==>

/home/sachin/Documents/QT_net_pages/mini2440vietnam: Upgrade Qt4.6.2 in mini2440.html

but still i have face issue not create cross compiler

SGaist

The question might be silly but did you install a cross-compiler before doing that ?

sachin786

yes i have install..

sachin786

is there any issue with configure command?

--build xyz or
--target xyz
on the ./configure command instead of --host or --prefix??

sachin786

this is single script file for tslib compilation "tslib.sh" ==>
export CROSS_COMPILE=/home/sachin/opt/FriendlyARM/toolschain/4.5.1/bin/arm-fsl-linux-gnueabi-

sudo ./configure --host=arm-fsl-linux-gnueabi --build=i386-linux-gnu-- prefix=/home/tslib --enable-shared=yes --enable-static=yes
sudo make
sudo make install
but not worked....

SGaist

What errors do you have this time ?

Hi,

Topic title says that you want to cross compile Qt 4.8.5 but the post contains cross compilation of tslib.

What you actually want to do?

--Kumara

sachin786

hello,for cross compile Qt 4.8.5 i have to follow following steps=>

tslib compilation
Qt4.8.5 compilation
Copy library of tslib and Qt4.8.5 into mini6410 board.
Configure the environment in mini6410 board.
Run Qt example program.

in this my first step is tslib compilation and not compiled..

jsulm

@sachin786 What error messages do you get if you try to compile tslib?

SGaist

Can you call arm-fsl-linux-gnueabi-gcc -v from your terminal ?

Also, don't do development or compilation as root.

jsulm

Take a look at the beginning of the output:
"configure: WARNING: if you wanted to set the --build type, don't use --host."
I'm not an expert in cross compilation, but it looks like you should use --build and not --host

sachin786

@SGaist
arm-fsl-linux-gnueabi-gcc -v if i execute this command i got followinf output=>

bash: /home/sachin/Documents/ARM_CROSS_COMPILER/fsl-linaro-toolchain/bin/arm-fsl-linux-gnueabi-gcc: Permission denied

sachin786

@SGaist
Yes i have working for cross compilation as a normal user only.....but is i got some error like permission denied then i used sudo infront of that command only.

Permission denied ? What are the permissions on that file ?
