Creating 5.4.1 from source (iOS)

[patrikd]

Hi all,
did anyone successfully build Qt 5.4.1 Commercial for iOS? I'm running insane...
My last configuration command:

• configure ../qtSrc/configure -prefix ../qtInstall/ -commercial -confirm-license -debug-and-release -nomake tests -nomake examples -qt-zlib -qt-libjpeg -qt-libpng -xplatform macx-ios-clang -no-sql-mysql
  I have taken the source from 5.4.1 as a tar.
  Everything is in my documents folder, so i don't run into any permission or profile problems anymore. Make runs thru but if i run make install i get the error for undefined symbols armv7 qt_static_plugin.....
  Please help,
  Patrik

Hi,

Since you are using a commercial edition, you should also contact the Support Center from your Qt account

Hi SGaist,
I did. But i only have bronze support and that doesn't handle building of qt :(
best,

Can you show the exact error you are getting ?
