How to compile kmap2qmap

SGaist

Hi,

What error are you getting ?

VincentB

This is the output from qtcreator when I try to compile kmap2qmap project :

When I open the projetct, this message appears :Error while parsing file /home/vincent/Téléchargements/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.7.1/qttools/src/kmap2qmap/kmap2qmap.pro. Giving up.

Thanks

You are trying to store the build result in /bin which you don't have access to (which is normal).

You shouldn't do that, what version of Qt are you using to build that utility ?

VincentB

I'm using Qt 5.7. How to change the output directory ?

jsulm

@VincentB Can you post the *.pro file of that project?

VincentB

Sure :

QT = core platformsupport-private
CONFIG += console

SOURCES += main.cpp

load(qt_app)

This is the .pro file contains in qt sources (qttools/src/kmap2qmap)

VincentB

When I copy/pastethe commands found in the output compilation sheet in QtCreator in console and modify -o /bin/kmap2qmap to -o ../../bin/kmap2qmap it works.

But the output of executing kmap2qmap is :

./kmap2qmap: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5: no version information available (required by ./kmap2qmap)
./kmap2qmap: relocation error: ./kmap2qmap: symbol _ZN7QString13toUtf8_helperERKS_, version Qt_5 not defined in file libQt5Core.so.5 with link time reference

SGaist

Are you sure you are not mixing your distribution Qt with the one you installed from the official installer ?

VincentB

I hope not...

How I can check this point ?

EDIT : Ouch.. I'm a little bit confused : On QtCreator in help menu --> based on Qt 5.7.0
When I type in a console

qmake -v

It's output :

QMake version 3.0
Using Qt version 5.2.1 in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

So I guess there is a conflict there...

SGaist

If you're on the command line, just calling qmake will call your system's qmake. Use the full path.

If using Qt Creator, check the Kit you are using.

VincentB

Kit is using Qt5.7.
Even try with full path to qmake in Qt5.7 directory, still have the same issue :

./kmap2qmap: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5: no version information available (required by ./kmap2qmap)

SGaist

Additional note: the Qt version used to build Qt Creator doesn't matter in regard to the version you use to build your application. You can use Qt Creator with several version of Qt for several different architectures, device etc.

You can try with LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/your/Qt/5.7/lib/path ./kmap2qmap

Hi @SGaist ,

Thanks for the tip, it works. But now, I have to clean my qt installations ...

Hi @VincentB
can you explain how you did it?
i gave myselv priviledges on /bin so that on QTCreator buld kmap2qmap without any errors.
Now i am facing a problem with this example:

kmap2qmap i386/qwertz/de-latin1-nodeadkeys.kmap include/compose.latin1.inc de-latin1-nodeadkeys.qmap

It gives me this error:

/bin/kmap2qmap: error while loading shared libraries: libGAL.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

michaelL

Hi,

i made it work with the tool kmap2qmap and loaded like this on main:

QEglFSFunctions myKeyboard_Layout;
myKeyboard_Layout.loadKeymap("/home/root/de-latin1-nodeadkeys.qmap");

The keymaps on my embedded OS where all with .gz zipped. To make it work with the tool i had to "gunzip" all the files from
/usr/share/keymaps/i386/qwertz and /usr/share/keymaps/i386/include
and
/usr/share/keymaps/i386/qwertz and /usr/share/keymaps/i386/qwertz

Than do:
kmap2qmap /usr/share/keymaps/i386/qwertz/de-latin1-nodeadkeys.kmap de-latin1-nodeadkeys.qmap

After that you have your .qmap file. Copy it to the directory where your application runs at and add the function in main to set the right keymap fo the keyboard.

SGaist

Thanks for sharing your solution !

Happy hacking :)
