How to compile an iOS application in Qt?
-
@Mikeeeeee said in How to compile an iOS application in Qt?:
Does the compiler for iOS come with Qt or need to be customized?
No, it comes with XCode from Apple and there is no need to customise it.
-
Looks like the compiler didn't tune in automatically. How to add a new compiler for iOS?
@Mikeeeeee Are you sure your XCode is set up properly (meaning support for iOS development installed)?
Do you see "Apple Clang (arm64)" as compiler on the "Compilers" tab? -
@Mikeeeeee I'm talking about Compile tab in QtCreator, not XCode.
-
Did you check your Xcode configuration to see if there's anything related to that ?
-
@Mikeeeeee You can open XCode and create a default app for iOS and see whether you can build it. I already suggested this before.
-
Xcode manages the changes automatically so I don't know whether there were any config changes or installations when I first connected my developer iOS device with USB to the MacOS machine. As I remember Qt picked up the config from Xcode automatically as well. Each QT version has a list of supported devices. You should use that specific QT version which contains your phone's architecture in its supported platforms page.
Execute the following command from terminal to see whether you have the same compiler as me:
find /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains -name clang++For me it lists:
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/clang++This same compiler is in use for both armv7 and x86_64, which is specified with the flag "-arch armv7" or "-arch x86_64".
-
Because clang is used for all platforms.
How did you install Xcode ?
