Kits selection for android development

[Abin]

Hi,

I am developing an application for android device. When I create a new project "Kit Selection" menu has come. I am confused which to add. And which kit I should use to build my application.

Can you explain what are the kits below:

Android for armeabi (GCC 4.8, Qt 5.2.1)

Android for armeabi-v7a (GCC 4.8, Qt 5.2.1)

Android for x86 (GCC 4.8, Qt 5.2.1)

Desktop-Qt 5.2.1 for Android x86

This will compile your code for the old ARM architecture, so you will get a binary that is compatible even with the oldest devices

This will compile your code using the newer ARM architecture, more performant and in general better ;)

This will compile for x86 android (for devices using x86 chips)

That entry is strange and does not look auto-generated. Hard to say what it does without seeing Kit setup detail

Hi,

If memory serves correctly:

1. Android for arm slower but support a wider range of processors
2. Android for arm with hardware floating point operation / newer cpu stuff support
3. Android for x86 processor e.g. intel/amd
4. Standard Qt for desktop coming with the Android installer

Hope it helps
