How to install qt creator 6.4.2 for raspberry pi

[Dean21]

Hi so like the title says I am trying to install qt creator 6.4.2 on my raspberry pi 4, I have tried going to the qt website and downloading the open source online installer, but when it downloads it just gives a file qt-unified-linux-x64-4.5.1-online. I have tried to make it run by using the command chmod -x file name here. But cant get it to run/open. And even if it does run/open does the 4.5.1 in the file name indicate qt creator version 4.5.1?

The reason for me wanting to have qt creator on the pi is I want to compile a project I wrote on ubuntu, so I can use it on a pi, but didnt want to go through the seemingly complicated setup for cross compilation.

Any help would be great,
Thanks in advance,
Dean.

qt creator 6.4.2

You mean Qt? Qt is not the same as QtCreator. QtCreator is just an IDE.
Online installer will not work on ARM based machines like RaspberryPi.
You will need to build Qt by yourself if you want to use a version not provided by the OS you're running on RaspberryPi.

@jsulm do you mean build it from binaries? If so where can I find the qt 6.4.2 ones and is there any tutorials online of how to do this cause I have been looking but havent found anything for qt6.

Thanks Dean
