QGC Android build failing.

[deathStroke69]

Hi I am new to QT and fairly new to programming as well. So sorry if I am not understanding the jargon. Now coming to the issue.
I am trying to compile the QgroundControl code for android.

Things I have done:
I have set up VDM in android studio
I have set up the android environment
When compiling qmake and make steps seems to get excecuted properly without errors.
Problem is the Build Android APK
I have mostly followed all instructions in https://dev.qgroundcontrol.com/master/en/index.html and the desktop version compiles no problem

@deathStroke69 Please post errors as text, not pictures.
The error message says that QtSerialPort is not available. How did you install Qt for Android?

@jsulm Hi thank you for your reply. I installed QT using https://www.qt.io/download-open-source and I checked Android in the installing components page.

@deathStroke69 said in QGC Android build failing.:

libQt5SerialPort_x86.so

Does your Android Qt installation have such a file?
I'm not sure whether QtSerialPort module is part of Qt Android official builds.
Could be that you have to build it by yourself.

@deathStroke69 from the error message, your ABIs selection is x86. Are you sure it is the right one? I guess most people select arm64-v8a(my selection) or armeabi-v7a.

[deathStroke69]

@jsulm Hmm okay I am not sure of how to do this. I just checked the lib folder and it has the file libQt5SerialPort_x86.so

@JoeCFD Hi, I tried in both it gives the same error

Sorry for the late reply
