Qt with Gfx Plugin
-
Hi,
I am bit new to Qt.
I am trying to cross compile Qt on my MIPS based platform. But the issue is, the platform has its own convention of using Graphics.
Hence instead of using LinuxFB or DirectFB, I have made my own.
But every time I try to run the application it gives : Driver not found
(during configuration i have added -plugin-xxx)When I go inside I find .so for the plugin created. Even I have added that in LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
I have few questions:
- When it says driver not found, is it looking in specific directory?
- I assume that gfx driver means the plugin which I have created ("libgfx.so")
- Is there any environment variable that need to be set. Currently I have only set QWS_DISPLAY=gfx
I am not sure where I am going wrong.
If these have been discussed, please point me to the link.

As a first step, I recommend setting the QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS environment variable to 1.
As a second step, you can try building and running the application located in qt/util/plugintest.
Those should help in tracking down the problem. You might also want to take a look at:

Hi Thanks for the reply.
Now i copied the plugin inside the application.
Even though file is present, it says it couldn't find.I have added LinuxFb plugin, which it clearly finds out the "keys".
While I debug and find the reason, If you have any suggestions please let me know.
./trivialwizard -qws
