Qt automotive suites examples

Sparkleholic

I have several issues for testing Qt automotive suites with qt commercial trials.
I installed qt automotive suites (qt 5.12) and try to build/package some examples available in the qtcreator.

Neptune ui example
The website's documents says
(https://doc.qt.io/Neptune3UI/neptune3ui-build-run.html#running-neptune-3-ui-using-qt-automotive-suite)
"After Qt Automotive Suite have been installed, Neptune 3 UI can be run either on your desktop or your embedded devices."

I could find some examples for automotive suites in qt-creator, but there is no one that uses the neptune ui.

Packaging automotive suite's examples
Some examples have no issue for packaging via packaging-utility (create-package).
But some examples fail on packaging step.

i.e. qface-ivi-addressbook

qtcreator cause segmentation fault if I try to run by "AM" when I set the intel NUC kit.
qtcreator fails on making package when I try to make package using create-package because the error says "if couldn't find a info.yaml"

Why do not the official automotive suites' examples work smoothly?

neptune gui widgets for qtcreator designer?
I couldn't find any widget for neptune3 in the qtcreator.
Is there any way to enable ?
Many warnings are showing the qtcreator editor even in official automotive suites' examples.

Hi @Sparkleholic, welcome.

you should better contact the commercial support for that. Most users here are on open source packages and have no experience with the automotive suite.

I see the most of your concerns as multiple drawbacks in the docs, which are currently not explaining what a selected example represents and how it should (not) be used. We will improve this. Thanks! Problems wish packaging and the segfault are concerning me though. Could you please provide more details or, even better, just file a bugreport on https://bugreports.qt.io/projects/AUTOSUITE

@aha_1980 I'm not fully sure of that... Qt Automotive Suite packages are as much open source as the rest of Qt: http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt-apps/neptune3-ui.git/ , http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtivi.git/ , http://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtapplicationmanager.git/ One point is correct: "have no experience" because currently most use of this software is in actual customer projects and so not that much used open source projects.

Qt Automotive Suite packages are as much open source as the rest of Qt

Probably. But http://doc.qt.io/QtAutomotiveSuite states:

Qt Automotive Suite is a collection of software components [...] Built on top of the Qt for Device Creation

which in turn is commercial: https://doc.qt.io/QtForDeviceCreation/index.html

Qt for Device Creation is a commercial offering
