Orientation please, developing linux application from qt installed on windows 8 machine
-
Hi people, first of all I apologize if this is not the right section for asking this.
As I wrote on the title, I need to make a linux application for a panel pc, I installed QT on my windows 8 and started learning last week how to use it. However now Im having problems migrating the applications i made to linux, I succesfully deployed them on Android using the AndroidGCC taken from my Android SDK, but I dont know how to deploy or create an app for linux...
Do I need to install the GCC linux libraries on windows?
Do I need to develop linux applications on QT always over Linux?NOTE: now im testing with a raspberry pi 2 with a device but the target device will be a Linux 3.0.35(QT 5.4)
Any orientation would be appreciated.
Thanks!! -
Hi and welcome to devnet,

That doesn't really tell what will be running on your device.
You don't have to use Linux to do cross-compilation, but it sure helps a lot to simplify the process.

Thanks for the welcome,
Im installing Qt creator on Ubuntu 14.04 (64-bit) as i saw here is one of the supported: *http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/supported-platforms.html *
, i kept reading about creating applications for linux enviroment and i found this: https://wiki.qt.io/Deploying_a_Qt5_Application_Linux
It seems what i need to follow for my purpose, I post it here just if some linux newbie as me has the same doubts :DThanks again!
