How to deploy for a new platform?
-
Hello everyone,
I'm just started using Qt for an embedded stb application. But the problem is I couldn't find my chip Amlogic s905x3 in the Reference Target Platforms, also I read about but couldn't understand Qt for device creation or boot2qt. Is it possible to run my qt app on amlogic chip? If yes how? Thanks a lot in advance. -
Hi and welcome to devnet,
Do you have a device using it ?
Which OS does it run ?
Depending on that you may already use one of the many existing ARM configuration.
Otherwise, you may need to create a custom mkspec with the specifics of your chip. -
Hi SGaist thanks a lot for the reply,
1 - No I just run it before on my laptop
2 - It runs different OS's Ubuntu Debian Armbian and CoreELEC
As it runs these os's I think configuration should be straightforward, but I'm new to embedded world so I don't know where to begin :( -
If armbian, then you should already have Qt as part of the distribution. You can check there what is used to build it.
You can start with a generic build and then check what additional flags you can use to optimize for your target.
