Cross compilation with X11
-
Hi,
I resolved that issue. The problem was while mounting the file system using ssfhs I had not provided an option i.e allow_other. So it was showing permission denied error
Thank you. -
Hi,
All my problem solved. Now Qt application is running on gnome.
Thank you so much for the help :) :) -
You're welcome !
Since you have your application working now, please update the thread title prepending [solved] so other forum users may know a solution has been found :)

Hi,
Ya sure I will do it.
I have one more problem. Keyboard is not working after running the application.
How can I enable it? -
How are you starting your application ? What type of keyboard is it ?
-
I am using USB Keyboard.
I am starting the application by giving the command in the terminal:
@./Test_app@Keyboard works till application runs after application start running it doesn't work.
-
Still using X11 ?
-
Yes Qt application running on X11.

What you did is install the dependencies to build Qt for your computer. What you need to do is install them for your target. So the simplest way is to login to your target, install all the needed dependencies.
The you can e.g. mount your device filesystem in a place on your computer using e.g. sshfs and give the -sysroot parameter to configure pointing to where your mounted the device fs. It should then pick the headers and libraries from there and continue its work

Hi, I have followed same steps. It's works.
Is it possible build without target device ?
Could you please help me on this. Thanks in advance!@thanga said in [SOLVED]Qt cross compilation with X11:

Can you explain what you mean?
You can build without target device if you have a sysroot for it. -

You can build without target device if you have a sysroot for it.I have mounted target device on /media/SSHFS_X11/ path on host machine (Ubuntu). While mounted Qt getting build, If I disconnect the target device. I am getting following error:
Basic XLib functionality test failed!
You might need to modify the include and library search paths by editing
QMAKE_INCDIR_X11 and QMAKE_LIBDIR_X11 in /home/lolveley/bin/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.5.1/mkspecs/linux-g++.May I know how to build without target device ? And how to configure sysroot on host (Ubuntu) machine ?
Could you please help me on this...

@thanga Just create a directory and copy the content of your target device to that directory. Then use this directory as your sysroot instead of /media/SSHFS_X11.

I have copied /usr dir files to /media/SSHFS_X11, and tried to build But still and getting following error,
Basic XLib functionality test failed!

Target device also Ubuntu OS stand alone device.

@thanga You need to copy everything what is needed. You should copy at least /usr/lib and /usr/include, probably /lib as well.
It should then look like:/media/SSHFS_X11/usr/include /media/SSHFS_X11/usr/lib /media/SSHFS_X11/libCall configure with -v parameter to see what exactly is missing if it says "Basic XLib functionality test failed!".
-
If you don't use the same folder as you did when configuring the first time then you should point configure to the new location. Note that you should do a build from scratch to avoid any leftovers from interfering.

Did you do a full copy of the sysroot over to your desktop ?
On a side note, unless you're locked to that version, at least use the latest of the Qt 4 series which is 4.8.7. Even better if you migrate to Qr 5.
