Qt creator setup on Beaglebone armv71 running Debian "9" stretch

[jsulm]

@Ashh There is nothing special: go to the Kits page, click at Add button to add a Kit and configure it.
"Once i add device BB vis IP under 'Generic Linux Device'" - I'm really confused now! You wrote before that you want to develop DIRECTLY on the device, right? So, why are you trying to add BB device with IP?! This is only needed if you are doing cross-compalation...

@jsulm Thanks. I am sorry for mistake.
I am very new to Qt. since I tried many ways to setup and working on Qtcreator and spent long time on it. The actual thing, I wish to do it, I need to run a Qt developed application on BB, for which I tried these ways...

1. VS2019+visualGDB--->cross compile----> deploy application to BB (I prefer this).
   -> application running on vs2019(win10), works well,
   -> but when I tried to run it and cross compile through visualGDB, it gives errors (related to opencv), for which I already posted a different post in this form https://forum.qt.io/topic/128465/unable-to-compile-qt-visualgdb-opencv, but unfortunately, it didn't get resolve. so I tried another way.....
2. virtual box Ubuntu (cross compile) + setup Qt creator (BB)
   -> To do this, I tried to follow the steps mentioned in here https://sites.google.com/site/timpicuc/Downhome/beaglebone-black/setting-up-qt-for-bbb-with-debian, which is also based on cross-compilation to set up Qtcreator on BB through Ubuntu (host). but failed. so I am trying other option....
3. Direct setup Qt creator on BB
   -> As per your suggestions, I am trying to do that but didn't see how to add kits in Qt. could you please share any link related to it?

Please let me know the simple way to do so. Please suggest. Thanks.

could you please share any link related to it?

I don't have any link and I'm wondering why a link is needed to add a Kit in QtCreator?
Did you try what I already suggested?
On the Kit tab in QtCreator properties click on Add button to add a new Kit. In that Kit select the Qt5 version which was detected (you can see it in the screen-shot you posted). Please do this and tell us whether you have any concrete issues.

[Ashh]

@jsulm yes, I tried what you suggested. here it is.

[jsulm]

@Ashh And did you try to use this Kit?

[Ashh]

@jsulm I didn't get you, sorry.....
after adding the Qt version5.7.1, I see this in console....

"No tool chain set from kit "bbc".

[jsulm]

@Ashh How did you install Qt 5.7.1?

[Ashh]

@jsulm
sudo apt install qtcreator sudo apt install qt5-default.

[jsulm]

@Ashh Please try to use this Kit to see whether it works even if you get these warnings.

[Ashh]

@jsulm yes, even if I try to use Qt while ignoring the warnings, I am unable to see any of the Qt default examples to test the Qt configuration on BB. :(

[jsulm]

@Ashh You probably did not install Qt examples package.
But you can simply create a small Qt application and try to build it...
