Error when building Qt for ARM
-
Hi,
I'm trying to build qt-everywhere-commercial-src-4.7.3 (with a commercial evaluation license) on Ubuntu 11.04 for an embedded linux system (ARM11). I've been roughly following this guide: http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/Building_Qt_for_Embedded_Linux
I've successfully done the host build but am now having problems with the target build.
What I have done so far:
-
Cross-compiled libts with arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc and modified qmake.conf for the linux-arm-gnueabi-g++ mkspec to add the paths to the include and lib directories for this libts build.
-
The following configure command:
@./configure -xplatform qws/linux-arm-gnueabi-g++ -embedded arm
-qt-gfx-linuxfb -qt-gfx-vnc
-no-largefile -exceptions -no-accessibility -no-qt3support -no-sse2 -qt-zlib -no-gif -no-libtiff
-qt-libpng -no-libmng -qt-libjpeg -no-openssl -no-nis -no-cups -depths 16
-qt-kbd-linuxinput -nomake demos -nomake examples
-qt-mouse-linuxinput -qt-mouse-tslib
-confirm-license -silent@ -
I execute make and it fails part way through:

@a little further down

@How can I resolve this? I feel as though this bug is relevant to my problem: http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-15911?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel#issue-tabs, but I don't understand enough to be sure or know if I can use a workaround. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks

Thanks koahnig.
I had a look at this file and I didn't see anything that seemed useful to me.
I think my problem relates to the identified issue here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt4-x11/+bug/490371
https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com//browse/QTBUG-16402
and also
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gcc-4.4-armel-cross/+bug/683832I tried the -marm workaround suggested in that last link by adding the following lines to make qmake.conf
@QMAKE_CFLAGS = -marm
QMAKE_CXXFLAGS = $$QMAKE_CFLAGS@which now makes it fail with the following errors:
@image/qimage_neon.cpp: In function ‘void qt_convert_rgb888_to_rgb32_neon(quint32*, const uchar*, int)’:
image/qimage_neon.cpp:47:18: error: ‘uint8x8_t’ does not name a type
image/qimage_neon.cpp:63:23: error: ‘fullVector’ was not declared in this scope@

Hi
at the moment there is not a lot I can do to assist you in this problem. This is outside of my experience.
However, I have noted something in the information you have provided.
Initially you started out with Qt4.7.3 in the first post.

[/quote]
the error message refers to version 4.5.2.Could it be that you are dealing with a mix of different Qt version?
You might want to check this and ensure that you are using only one specific version. -
Hi everybody.
I faced errors when trying to build qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.2 on Ubuntu 11.04. please help me solve it.
