Developing with Ubuntu Qt Creator ToolChain for Angstrom Beaglebone (Arm Cortex-a8)

[NuckNuck]

[quote author="blaroche" date="1350134211"]hmm. lets go back and see if we can find a smaller configure that you can build on.

see where you get with this one:
@./configure -v -opensource -confirm-license -xplatform qws/linux-arm-gnueabi-g++ -embedded arm -little-endian -host-big-endian -prefix /usr/local/beaglebone/qt4.8-arm @
[/quote]

That first configure seems to have done the trick, This was the end result

@
Qt is now configured for building. Just run 'make'.
Once everything is built, you must run 'make install'.
Qt will be installed into /usr/local/beaglebone/qt4.8-arm

To reconfigure, run 'make confclean' and 'configure'.

So i ran make and recieved the following error

@make[1]: arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++: Command not found
make[1]: *** [.obj/release-shared-emb-arm/qabstractanimation.o] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/xenland/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.3/src/corelib'
make: *** [sub-corelib-make_default-ordered] Error 2@

Its odd that it says its trying to execute arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++

[blaroche]

check your mkspecs again.
look at this file:
/home/xenland/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.3/mkspecs/qws/linux-arm-gnueabi-g++/qmake.conf

you should see stuff for:
arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-*
not
arm-none-linux-gnueabi-*

should look like the below:
@ #
# qmake configuration for building with arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++
#

include(../../common/linux.conf)
include(../../common/gcc-base-unix.conf)
include(../../common/g++-unix.conf)
include(../../common/qws.conf)
 
# modifications to g++.conf
QMAKE_CC                = arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc
QMAKE_CXX               = arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-g++
QMAKE_LINK              = arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-g++
QMAKE_LINK_SHLIB        = arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-g++
 
 
# modifications to linux.conf
QMAKE_AR                = arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-ar cqs
QMAKE_OBJCOPY           = arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-objcopy
QMAKE_STRIP             = arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-strip
 
load(qt_config)

The conf file was saying the arm-none so I changed it to the one you provided and I get relativly the same error take a look:

[blaroche]

now looks like the toolchain binaries aren't found in your PATH var.
source the toolchain env file, type:
source /usr/local/angstrom/arm/environment-setup

then type:
arm-angstrom-linux and hit tab a few times and make sure it can find arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-g++

see if that gets you further.
