i've cross compiled the QT 4.6 for target Arm, on my friendly is istalled the QT 2.2 have some one a tutorial, wich explain how to put the new QT on the board?
install QT 4.6 on mini 2440
Have a look at the tutorials from http://www.sereno-labs.com/
i've compiled yet the QT i've to put inside the friendlyarm to open at startup the new graphic interface.
Hope I'm not telling stupidities, but I'm afraid you're confusing QTopia with QT library. QT2.2 is QTopia (ie including a graphic desktop) and QT4.6 is QT library only (without a desktop environment). QT lib will allow you to run normal QT applications by starting them with the -qws option (embedded QT server) or initializing QT with the embedded server option in your main(). But there will be no desktop as QTopia's one. So using QTopia or just QT lib depends on what you want to do. Once again, I'm not a specialist in QT, and this is just my understanding of the experiments I've done. So take this for just what it is :)
I the last few days just got my mini2440, so I was also little confused about QT. So from what you are saying QT 2.2 ( QTopia ) is the desktop GUI , whereas QT 4.x are the libraries. So if I`m making my own program without a GUI, I don`t need QTopia I just need the libraries and my complied program ? , plus some form of Linux !!!.
hi peter you can 1.build your kernel,RFS,u-boot-bin using buildroot/OE(base-image or Angstorm) then 2.x-compile tslib even before compiling QT4.x and install it in --prefix=u set. 3.x-compile QT4.x with proper configuration switches. 4. xcompile your application 5.Copying tslib and QT-4.6 on target and setting the environment variable which set your development system to work with Qt applications. there r few blogs to do this ..for your help http://blog.cor-net.org/embedded/mini2440/qt-45-on-mini2440/ http://billforums.station51.net/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=15&p=44#p44 http://pauljones.id.au/blog/2010/07/using-buildroot-on-a-mini2440/
Hi. The board at the first time will have Qt2.2 (as Eric said, it's a graphic desktop). And Qt4.6, it's just a library which you will cross-compile it (i.e. compile it in other environments, like Ubuntu) and copy the library into mini2440 board. Because Qt4.6 contains many advantages and funnies (i guess ^^), you could upgrade Qt and enjoy the job :) By the way, you can find the way installing Qt4.6.2 into mini2440 board, visit my blog: http://mini2440vietnam.blogspot.com/2011/04/upgrade-qt462-in-mini2440.html Thanks.
