[solved]Can qrencode be build with Qt for android/ios apps ? If so how?
-
Hi,
I want to generate qr codes in my qt app that is supposed to run both on android and ios.I have found qrencode which is written in pure c but I can't figure out how to build it to work with my qt app on a windows machine. My kit is Android for armeabi-v7a(GCC 4.9 ,Qt 5.4.1) and I am developping this on** a x86 64 bit windows 7 machine**. Is there a way I can generate .a files that I can link against with mingw?.If so how?Thanks for your time.

Hi,
It doesn't look like the build system of qrencode generates any particular code file , so what you can do is include the source code directly in your project so you'll built it directly for each platform.
Hope it helps

Thanks for the reply ,I have done that and have been getting undefined references and thought I had been doing something wrong.Now I am going to look into it again with more confidence :-) .

What error did you got ?
-
It was undefined references on some functions.Adding the files to the project( through the .pro file) and applying minor changes I was able to build it (tested on msvc and mingw).The STATIC keyword as shown here
'''
__STATIC void MQRraw_free(MQRRawCode *raw);
'''was causing syntax errors( I don't know what it is meant for ) simply removing it and removing ''inline'' from this statement:
'''
static inline int modnn(RS *rs, int x){
'''in the rscode.c the code build successfuly. Should also mention that I was able to generate QR code by referring to this so
-
I have bundled the qrencode library into a Qt project for ease of use. The code is available for anyone interested.

Thanks for sharing but if I may, your repository should not contain object files nor build output. You should also have a direct link to the QRencoder library for it to be easier to find.

@SGaist
Thanks for the input.Taken care of .It is way cleaner now :-) -
You're welcome !
You can also remove the .pro.user file, it's only relevant for your computer setup

@musimbate Thanks for sharing code on github ;) it saved me a lot of work.
