[solved] Making qt creator aware of my embedded device.
-
Sorry if this is a duplicate as I am sure it must be, but my search fu is failing me.
I have a brand spanking new build of qt5 deployed on my raspberry pi. In following the build guide, the host files were installed to /usr/local/qt5pi (same as the prefix on the rootfs). Meanwhile qt creator is installed in /opt/Qt5.3.1. How do I make creator aware of my pi build? Do I simply fill out my own Kit and point to the mkspecs files in /usr/local/qt5pi?
If anyone could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi and welcome to devnet,
When cross-compiling Qt for your Pi you also got a set of host tool for it. You should add a new Qt version to Qt Creator and point it to this qmake version. Then create a kit that uses this version of Qt and you should be good to go

Thank you very much.
After adding the Qt version everything else seemed to fall out perfectly. It builds too!
Again, thanks!

You're welcome !
Since you have your cross-compiling environment setup working, please update thread title prepending [solved] so other forum users may know a solution has been found :)
