QT5 Cross Compiled from linux-x86 to linux-arm
-
Hi.
I'm new with QT and ARM.
I had success with cross compile qt4 (4.8.5) from linux to linux-arm-gnueabihf-g++ but not with qt5 (5.1.1) (it has some changes).
I am using:
Linux x86: Ubuntu 12.04
QT5 Source: qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.1.1
Toolchain: gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.7.
Linux ARM: UbuntuI copied mkspecs/linux-arm-gnueabi-g++ folder to mkspecs/linux-arm-gnueabihf-g++ folder and I have modified qtmake.conf as:
@#
qmake configuration for building with arm-linux-gnueabi-g++
MAKEFILE_GENERATOR = UNIX
CONFIG += incremental gdb_dwarf_index
QMAKE_INCREMENTAL_STYLE = sublibinclude(../common/linux.conf)
include(../common/gcc-base-unix.conf)
include(../common/g++-unix.conf)modifications to g++.conf
QMAKE_CC = arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc
QMAKE_CXX = arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++
QMAKE_LINK = arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++
QMAKE_LINK_SHLIB = arm-linux-gnueabihf-g++modifications to linux.conf
QMAKE_AR = arm-linux-gnueabihf-ar cqs
QMAKE_OBJCOPY = arm-linux-gnueabihf-objcopy
QMAKE_NM = arm-linux-gnueabihf-nm -P
QMAKE_STRIP = arm-linux-gnueabihf-strip
load(qt_config)@I have some problems with qt5 configure.
I want develop a QT app with a GUI on Linux x86 (Ubuntu 12.04) and compile for ARM Linux (Ubuntu).
With QT4 I did a QT4 cross compilation and then I copied this libs to ARM platform with my compiled app and run ok. I have to use -qws to launch it.
On QT5 there are some changes (QWS has dissapear for example)
I have some errors with the configure. And I have not clear what may be the proper configuration.
./configure -prefix /opt/qt5.1.1-arm -release -make libs -make examples -make tools -xplatform linux-arm-gnueabihf-g++ -no-opengl -confirm-license -opensource -xcb -no-pch -no-kms -v -no-icu
The errors:

The test for linking against libxcb failed!
You might need to install dependency packages for libxcb.
See src/plugins/platforms/xcb/README.I have instaled the dependency libs on src/plugins/platforms/xcb/README.
sudo apt-get install libxcb1 libxcb1-dev libx11-xcb1 libx11-xcb-dev libxcb-keysyms1 libxcb-keysyms1-dev libxcb-image0 libxcb-image0-dev libxcb-shm0 libxcb-shm0-dev libxcb-sync0 libxcb-sync0-dev libxcb-render-util0 libxcb-render-util0-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev libxrender-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-randr0-dev libxcb-glx0-dev
I'm lost, I appreciate any help.
Thanks.

Hi,
From a quick overview, you need to get the dependencies for ARM not for x86 and from you error it seems that your cross-compiler is not found (but I may be wrong, I'm not fluent in Italian)
-
is your xcompiler in your path?
if not add it, or better, say to the mkspec you are using the complete path to the xcompiler path
-
which means setting
QMAKE_CC = /complete/path/to/xcompiler-gcc
and so on :)
hope it helps

Hi,
My toolchain is on usr/bin
I tried also with QMAKE_CC = /usr/bin/xcompiler-gcc but I get the same error.
With Qt4 I had no problem but QT5 seems that is not the same way. Anybody can explain step by step how to make cross compiling I need?
Thanks for your help.

sorry I misread your configuration
