Qt Program failing through commands in terminal

Pradeep Kumar

Hello,

i have ** Qt 5.7 ** installed in my ubuntu,

If i use Qt creator and then build , then program compiles and i can run my executable.
so if i try to build my program using commands , i will get error.

The following error is when using commands

these are the following errrors.

a) when i use qmake SampleProgram.pro , it is taking from

/opt/freescale/usr/local/gcc-4.6.2-glibc-2.13-linaro-multilib-2011.12/fsl-linaro-toolchain/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++ -c -pipe -march=armv7-a -mfpu=neon -DLINUX=1 -DEGL_API_FB=1 -mfloat-abi=softfp -O2 -Wall -W -D_REENTRANT -fPIE -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_WIDGETS_LIB -DQT_GUI_LIB -DQT_CORE_LIB -I/usr/local/Qt-5.4.0/mkspecs/devices/linux-imx6-g++ -I../../SampleMake -I../../SampleMake -I/u01/rootfs/usr/local/Qt-5.4.0/include -I/u01/rootfs/usr/local/Qt-5.4.0/include/QtWidgets -I/u01/rootfs/usr/local/Qt-5.4.0/include/QtGui -I/u01/rootfs/usr/local/Qt-5.4.0/include/QtCore -I. -I/u01/rootfs/usr/include -I. -o main.o ../main.cpp

b) when i use make - i am getting the following error.

bash: ./SampleMake: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

the qmake its not taking from the installed Qt 5.7, please guide to run my program through commands also.

Just use absolute path to qmake you want to use instead of only qmake:

/path/to/qmake SampleProgram.pro

Pradeep Kumar

it worked,

the absolute path for generating the Make File.

But any solution how i can set it to take default qmake.

it is installed in the path :
/home/username/Qt5.7.0/5.7/gcc_64/bin/qmake

@Pradeep-Kumar Well, you can add /home/username/Qt5.7.0/5.7/gcc_64/bin to PATH (at the beginning) but you really should not do that!
You could write a small script where you set an alias:

#!/bin/sh
alias qmake=/home/username/Qt5.7.0/5.7/gcc_64/bin/qmake

Make the script executable and execute it in the terminal where you want to build.

You can set a symlink in /usr/local/bin/:
sudo ln -s /home/username/Qt5.7.0/5.7/gcc_64/bin/qmake /usr/local/bin/qmake

(but that might be a problem if you have several users on that system because other users will see that symlink but can't access the qmake in your home directory).
