qmake is using wrong path to clang++

[Strohhut]

Hi,

I am using Qt 5.12.2

when building my android app I get an Error Message:

Cannot run target compiler '/home/me/android-ndk-r10e/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/clang++'

When I look at the path, qmake trys to use clang++ from I not existing folder (llvm does not exist, its called llvm-3.6). I then took a look at the folder specified in the Kit and there the path to the clang++ is set right. Why does it use a different one that the one set in the Kit?

Edit
After adding a manual Kit and new manual clang++ compiler to make sure the paths are right, qmake uses the right compiler but a new error appears:

Wrong Format libQt5Quick.so

So I still can not build my application.

@Strohhut what is the NDK version you're using?

[Strohhut]

@J-Hilk I am using NDK r10e but also tried with r14b and the latest version r20

[J.Hilk]

@Strohhut 5.12 requieres at least ndk-r18b (IIRC)
also you need to completely delete and rebuild your shadow build folder after changing the ndk

@J-Hilk oh thanks i did not know that thanks!

I think I am getting closer or not ... now i have 11 Errors:

skipping incompatible /home/me/Qt/5.12.2/android_armv7/lib/(11 libs here)

@Strohhut
mmh, can you post the actual error message ?
And I would suggest to update to the lastest 5.12 release (5.12.5) if you can

[Strohhut]

@J-Hilk I updated to Qt 5.12.5 now I just have one error:

/home/me/Qt/5.12.5/android_armv7/lib/libQt5Quick.so:-1: error: error adding symbols: File in wrong format

[Strohhut]

@J-Hilk After updating and reinstalling basically everything it is working now ... I dont exactly know why but it does.

Thank you very much for your help!

@Strohhut
no problem, I was close to the end of my suggestions...
So great it's not working !

Setting up a working android toolchain can be cumbersome 🙈
