Qt Cross Compile 6.4.0 CMake generation or configuration mismatch
Unsolved
Installation and Deployment
-
Hi,
I'm trying to compile Qt for x86_64 Linux (Ubuntu 22.04) host and Beagle Bone Black armv7 (Debian 10) target platform.
I was following Qt6 for RPI guide.
(https://wiki.qt.io/Cross-Compile_Qt_6_for_Raspberry_Pi)I successfully compiled x86_64 (for self) kit. After that, I customized toolkit.cmake file, sysroot, build directory etc. and tried to compile cross version. Eventhough I set my C and C++ compiler at toolkit.cmake and set on configure macro, CMAKE build system automatically selects x86_64 compiler default installed on my host machine.
My toolkit.cmake :
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.18) include_guard(GLOBAL) set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME Linux) set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR arm) set(TARGET_SYSROOT /home/atlas/qt-for-BBB/BBB-sysroot) set(CMAKE_SYSROOT ${TARGET_SYSROOT}) set(ENV{PKG_CONFIG_PATH} $PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/pkgconfig) set(ENV{PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR} /usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/share/pkgconfig/:${TARGET_SYSROOT}/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/pkgconfig:${TARGET_SYSROOT}/usr/lib/pkgconfig) set(ENV{PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR} ${CMAKE_SYSROOT}) # if you use other version of gcc and g++ than gcc/g++ 9, you must change the following variables set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER /opt/gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc) set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER /opt/gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++) set(CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} -I${TARGET_SYSROOT}/usr/include") set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS}") set(QT_COMPILER_FLAGS "-march=armv7") set(QT_COMPILER_FLAGS_RELEASE "-O2 -pipe") set(QT_LINKER_FLAGS "-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed") set(CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_PROGRAM NEVER) set(CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_LIBRARY ONLY) set(CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_INCLUDE ONLY) set(CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_PACKAGE ONLY) set(CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH TRUE) set(CMAKE_BUILD_RPATH ${TARGET_SYSROOT}) include(CMakeInitializeConfigs) function(cmake_initialize_per_config_variable _PREFIX _DOCSTRING) if (_PREFIX MATCHES "CMAKE_(C|CXX|ASM)_FLAGS") set(CMAKE_${CMAKE_MATCH_1}_FLAGS_INIT "${QT_COMPILER_FLAGS}") foreach (config DEBUG RELEASE MINSIZEREL RELWITHDEBINFO) if (DEFINED QT_COMPILER_FLAGS_${config}) set(CMAKE_${CMAKE_MATCH_1}_FLAGS_${config}_INIT "${QT_COMPILER_FLAGS_${config}}") endif() endforeach() endif() if (_PREFIX MATCHES "CMAKE_(SHARED|MODULE|EXE)_LINKER_FLAGS") foreach (config SHARED MODULE EXE) set(CMAKE_${config}_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT "${QT_LINKER_FLAGS}") endforeach() endif() _cmake_initialize_per_config_variable(${ARGV}) endfunction() set(XCB_PATH_VARIABLE ${TARGET_SYSROOT}) set(GL_INC_DIR ${TARGET_SYSROOT}/usr/include) set(GL_LIB_DIR ${TARGET_SYSROOT}:${TARGET_SYSROOT}/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/:${TARGET_SYSROOT}/usr:${TARGET_SYSROOT}/usr/lib) set(EGL_INCLUDE_DIR ${GL_INC_DIR}) set(EGL_LIBRARY ${XCB_PATH_VARIABLE}/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libEGL.so) set(OPENGL_INCLUDE_DIR ${GL_INC_DIR}) set(OPENGL_opengl_LIBRARY ${XCB_PATH_VARIABLE}/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libOpenGL.so) set(GLESv2_INCLUDE_DIR ${GL_INC_DIR}) set(GLIB_LIBRARY ${XCB_PATH_VARIABLE}/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libGLESv2.so) set(GLESv2_INCLUDE_DIR ${GL_INC_DIR}) set(GLESv2_LIBRARY ${XCB_PATH_VARIABLE}/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libGLESv2.so) set(gbm_INCLUDE_DIR ${GL_INC_DIR}) set(gbm_LIBRARY ${XCB_PATH_VARIABLE}/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libgbm.so) set(Libdrm_INCLUDE_DIR ${GL_INC_DIR}) set(Libdrm_LIBRARY ${XCB_PATH_VARIABLE}/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libdrm.so) set(XCB_XCB_INCLUDE_DIR ${GL_INC_DIR}) set(XCB_XCB_LIBRARY ${XCB_PATH_VARIABLE}/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libxcb.so)Configuration commands (i tried more than one):

at the output below as you can see, CMAKE sets compiler as host compiler...
