Qt 5.7 and cross compile

deleted71

What is the command you are running?

Does the file

/home/nikohal/raspi/tools/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++

exist?

Niko Hallikainen

@I.C.Wiener Yes it is there. But some reason it not found.

Br, Niko H.

Niko Hallikainen

@I.C.Wiener I also try installing lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 packages, but not help.

So what command are you running?

@I.C.Wiener
In path was error, but now I get this error:

@I.C.Wiener Command is configure. I also install packages libc6-i386 lib32z1 lib32stdc++6. And now It give this error:

What command did you execute? The whole command line please.
And please try to use

// Code markers

for console output and commands.

Niko Hallikainen

@I.C.Wiener Command is:

 ./configure -release -opengl es2 -device linux-rpi3-g++ -device-option CROSS_COMPILE=~/raspi/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf- -sysroot ~/raspi/sysroot -opensource -confirm-license -make libs -prefix /usr/local/qt5pi -extprefix ~/raspi/qt5pi -hostprefix ~/raspi/qt5 -v
And I run it in folder qtbase.

deleted71

I had some success by installing

g++-arm-linux-gnueabihf

and then replacing

CROSS_COMPILE=~/raspi/arm-bcm2708/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-raspbian/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-

by

CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-

In general I was trying to cross-compile Qt5.7 for Raspi 3 for some days, made some progress but in the end, the result was not convincing. I guess the raspi-tools need some updating for raspi 3 and Qt5.7 respectively.

Niko Hallikainen

@I.C.Wiener Yes I install that from ubuntu repository, but it give that error.

I Google that, but nothing similar not found

Hmm, sorry. I do not have my cross-compiling environment set up anymore (it was too fiddly so I now compile on the Raspi3 directly) but I remember me playing around with the qtbase/mkspecs/common/g++-base.conf file. Like changing the -std=c++1z line to -std=c++11, so cheating a little bit. I guess if arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++ does not know c++1z yet, there's not much else you can do.

@I.C.Wiener I have now this problem in raspberry pi 3. I try to compile in there qt, but it give this error:

@shivaVMC what about following this guide?

shivaVMC

@Pablo-J.-Rogina
I followed the complete procedure as per below link,Just changed the V_5.7.1 to my V_5.7.0
https://lb.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=204529
Still I m having the same issue can you please help me out on this,Almost I have spent 8 Houors on sorting this error.It will a kind support to reduce me tension.

Thanks In advance

@Pablo-J.-Rogina
Initially I was following that guide only,but I failed at beloe step
git clone git://code.qt.io/qt/qtbase.git -b linux-rasp-pi3-g++
Cloning into 'qtbase'...
fatal: Remote branch linux-rasp-pi3-g++ not found in upstream origin

Pablo J. Rogina

@shivaVMC said in Qt 5.7 and cross compile:

git clone git://code.qt.io/qt/qtbase.git -b linux-rasp-pi3-g++

You need to specify what Qt branch (i.e. 5.7, ..., 5.10, etc.) you want to clone from Git repository, let's say you want to cross-compile Qt 5.10:

git clone git://code.qt.io/qt/qtbase.git -b 5.10

then you'll have a folder qtbase will all the sources to build Qt 5.10

@Pablo-J.-Rogina

HI Again
I m using 2 different version of QT as
my PC installed with QT5.7.0
My Rpi3 Kit installed with QT5.10.1
Now I compiled the code and it went well in my PC,Same ".exe" I run in rpi3kit it gave me an error as below

"cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
Application finished with exit code 126."

Please can you suggest on this.

Where I m going wrong?Is I need to install QT5.10.1 on my PC also?
