question about qmake variables
-
Hi guys,
I am a beginner to embedded Qt development. Currently I am trying to setup Qt-creator with toolchain made from 'meta-toolchain-qt5'. The installation script was ran and completed successfully. But when I tried to compile an example application (qmlvideo), I run into build error as following:
:-1: warning: libpng16.so.16, needed by /home/sharon/valleyisland/jethro/poky/build/tmp/work/corei7-64-poky-linux/qtbase/5.5.1+gitAUTOINC+5afc431323-r0/build/lib/libQt5Gui.so, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link)
I think the lib path is not set correctly in qtCreator.
So I checked "Build & Run" setup and there's nothing odd:
Compiler:
/home/sharon/opt/poky/2.0.2/sysroots/x86_64-pokysdk-linux/usr/bin/x86_64-poky-linux/x86_64-poky-linux-g++
Qt Version:
/home/sharon/opt/poky/2.0.2/sysroots/x86_64-pokysdk-linux/usr/bin/qt5/qmake
Kit: correct 'Qt Version' and 'Compiler' has been selectedThen I wonder qmake and lib path correct or not. So I checked by following command lines:

sharon@sharon-XXX:~/opt/poky/2.0.2/sysroots/x86_64-pokysdk-linux/usr/bin/qt5$I don't understand why QT_HOST_DATA was set to sysroot path, and QMAKE_SPEC was set to the path stores output for my Yocto project.
I tried to update QMAKE_SPEC by "./qmake -set <path>" and it does not work.
Is there anyway to correctly setup QMAKE_SPEC and QT_HOST_DATA?I am quite confused about QMAKE_SPEC and QMAKE_XSPEC.
Is 'QMAKE_SPEC' specified path to HOST qmake configuration and 'QMAKE_XSPEC' specified path to TARGET qmake configuration? Does it mean after I hit 'build' for my project I am going to get binary output to run on HOST (the machine qtCreator installed on). Not target device??? How can I generate binary file for my target device???
