Hello,
How i can build Postgresql for android ? I builded for Desktop, and it works, but I don't know how android
I have windows
Thank's -
@Yacinoben Why do you ask how to build PostgreSQL in a Qt forum?
Why do you want to use PostgreSQL on an Android device?
It is quite unusual to run a full-blown SQL server on a mobile device!
Or do you only want to use the client?
To build it for Android you need to install Android NDK first.
But you better ask PostgreSQL folks. -
I have a client application, when i try to connect in the database. I get this message : Driver not loaded. I use a postgresql, and i have just libqsqlite.so in "android_armv7\plugins\sqldrivers" . I know how to build for the desktop, but no for android .
https://wiki.qt.io/Build_Qt_5_PostgreSQL_Plugin_for_Android : this is just for linux, but i have windows -
@Yacinoben Your client application is running on a mobile device and connects to SQL server which is exposed over the internet?
Not a good idea. Your SQL server should not have direct connection to the internet (for security reasons). Instead you should implement a REST API which will provide clients an indirect access to the data in the SQL database.Again: it would be better to ask PostgreSQL developers how to build the client for Android.
