Qt5 on Android - missing QtActivityDelegate

khardix · wrote on 9 May 2013, 18:44

Hello,
I recently build (according to "wiki instructions":https://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt5ForAndroidBuilding) a Qt5 for android. Now I can successfully build an app, but when I try to deploy it on my SE MK16i (Xperia Pro), all I get is error message "Your application has encountered a fatal error and will be terminated".

From the java exception trace, it seems that class told QtActionDelegate is missing:

Is there any mistake on my side, or is it common and I should wait for more stable version?

Thanks in advance for any reply.

Jan 'Khardix' Stanek

I have this problem too. Looks like QtAndroid.jar isn't deployed. Nor is any other part of Qt.

So: Go to the projects window/build&run pane/select "run" from the "Android for arm" tab (this UI is wierd). Under "deploy configurations" select "Deploy local Qt libraries" and leave "Use local Qt libraries" checked.

This copies all kinds of .so files and a few jar files onto the device under /data/local/tmp/qt.

Gets me farther anyway: Now I see in logcat:

W/System.err( 8293): Caused by: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Cannot load library: link_image[1891]: 109 could not load needed library 'libgnustl_shared.so' for 'libQt5Core.so' (load_library[1093]: Library 'libgnustl_shared.so' not found)

But in fact libgnustl_shared.so is one of the files just copied into /data/local/tmp/qt/lib, which is also the location it just found libQt5Core.so.

So what's next? -- David

(Possibly related to "QTCREATORBUG-9291":https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTCREATORBUG-9291 except I was using "Deploy Local Qt Libraries" which that bug says works properly.)

BTW, I'm still trying to get my simple example QML-style application to run.

The only way I found to get past loading the libraries was to copy all libQt*.so and libgnustl_shared.so to /vendor/lib. Otherwise, it wouldn't load libQtCore.so (and others) due to not finding their built-in dependencies, which apparently used only LD_LIBRARY_PATH which did not have "." in it.

Now I've got past the loading of my main.qml and get the following error (I should say this is on an actual device, a sort-of TI Blaze clone, not an emulator - haven't tried the emulator).

I had qtactivitydelegate was missing. After deleting my android folder in the project the error went away. I saw the newly generated manifest file had qt5 specific changes:

So that could be the issue.
