Qt 5.6.3 Qtvirtual keyboard not installed

Ramakanth

Hi,

Tried to install https://download.qt.io/new_archive/qt/5.6/5.6.3/submodules/qtvirtualkeyboard-opensource-src-2.0.tar.xz as a separate module in Qt 5.6.3 on ubuntu 16.04, it doesn't installs the libQt5VirtualKeyBoard so but only generates libqtvirtualkeyboardstylesplugin.so though there are no build errors.

Please suggest in this regard.

Best Regards,
Ramakanth

Hi,

Please give more information about what you did to build the module, the configuration log, etc.

Ramakanth

After building Qt 5.6.3, built QtvirtualKeyboard as a separate module using below:
qmake
make
sudo make install

Didnot find the configuration log in the top level directory generated.
However, it generates only libqtvirtualkeyboardstylesplugin.so

Are you sure you are using the correct qmake ?

Ramakanth

Thanks..It worked as it is installed as a qml plugin with changes static {
QT += svg
QTPLUGIN += qtvirtualkeyboardplugin
}
and adding QML_IMPORT_PATH=/usr/local/Qt-5.6.3/qml in pro file. However, it needs to be imported as import QtQuick.Enterprise.VirtualKeyboard 2.0 .

Does it mean it cannot be used as part of Qt 5.6.3 opensource modules but only as a commercial module including Qt charts?

From the looks of it, the 5.6 version seems to be commercial. From 5.7, the dual licensing appears.
