Hi Everbody,

I was successful at running example GUI application on mini2440. I was
really happy. But my happiness has gone away after realising that I cannot
do my own application well. I am using qt creator and the desired compiler.
I cannot set the qt creator well to compile my application. I have tried
many tutorials but I always found some error in my solutions. For example
here you can see that tool chain is not found. (This is attached). How can
I compile my application with qt creator? I will be able to find to develop
complex application after compiling the first simple application :) Thank
for your help

I have forgotten the most important things that the examples were compiled
by me from command terminal. So I have problem only with qt creator.

navaj you can not install qtcreator on mini2440
you should get qt4.6.2 source and compile it using arm-linux-gcc that comes
with mini2440. Then install qtcreator on your linux host machine and
configure it to use that compiled version. There are couple sites yu can
find that explained this procedure. Be aware that Qt and Qtcreator are two
different things!! Qtcreator is just an IDE. Qt is a library/framework that
can be loaded into Qtcreator or any other IDEs.

hello experts,
i am 3 month older in mini2440 platform....i made GUI using the qt which is
called designer(in qt2)...hold in arm-qtopia.
but it is easier to make GUI and programe in qt4 version.

Search for Qt creator.  Qt2 is ancient.

Lots of things can go wrong.

Mini2440 with the right support supports Qt4

Maybe this helps:

i did the first step...OOps!error that fatal: destination path 'tslib'
already exists and is not an empty directory.
that means the tslib is already instaled..
because when i see /home/tslib it is installed...

@davef
after that when i ./configure the step it tells the error:
and in making the $make and $make install aslo gets errors.
can you give me any solution.
thank you.

There is no point trying to proceed with make and make install until you
have the first error sort out.

I think I'd be checking those files in:

/home/tslib# ls
bin  etc  include  lib

have in fact been cross-compiled for armv4t

Pick one and do:

   readelf -a <filename>

and check towards the end of the screen message that you see 
armv4t

@davef
i have to  pick a file in bin folder and run the above command.
is it ok!!!

If that is the whole screen output message then you have not cross-compiled
it.

There should be something like:

TAG: armv4t

about 4-5 lines from the bottom of that file.

@davef
so how can i do that...mean cross compiled.

Go to the downloads page and grab a copy of the mini2440 4.3.2 toolchain
and put it on your host.  Then follow this tutorial:
http://mini2440vietnam.blogspot.co.nz/2011/04/upgrade-qt462-in-mini2440....

Another one that will help

Good luck!

i couldn't......
i tried it many times but fails....
can you tell me about trolltech designer working and how to use it and code
in it
i tried googled it but no more information.
i am felling bad....

davef

If you post the error message then someone might be able to help.

I wouldn't waste my time trying to develop an application for Qtopia.  It
is ancient.

Have you got a reason for using that system?

r@wboom

hello davef,
i am very thankful to you that you helped me...
actually i need your help to know about i2c.
i posted my question in i2c thread but no one give me any reply...it's been
more then 10 days..that's why i am asking.
[/code]
...
fd=open("/dev/i2c/0", O_RDWR);
  if(fd<0)
  {
    printf("Error open!\n");
  }

  buf[0]=0x00;
  buf[1]=0xff;

  io=ioctl(fd,0x703,0x50);
  if(io<0)
  {
    printf("Error ioctl!\n");
  }

  wbyte=write(fd,buf,2);
  if(wbyte!=1)
  {
    printf("Wbyte: %d\n",wbyte);
    printf("Error write!\n");
  }
..

[code/]
what is mean of 0x703 and 0x50;
please tell me...
thanks.

Yahallo everyone !
I am new in embedded linux on mini2440 ! i am using qt everywhere 4.7.2 to
build my Gui app. when i using "./untitled -qws" i have error "./untitled:
error while loading shared libraries: /opt/pte/lib/libQtGui.so.4: invalid
ELF header" i dont know what to do... everyone can help me ? Thanks !

davef

2015-06-13 02:08:08

On the command line on the host computer type in:

   readelf -a <untitled>

and tell us what you see on the last 4-5 lines.

Fanning

2015-06-13 11:50:25

Yahallo davef ! Thanks for rep !

i go to "/home/fanning/mini2440" where I create GUI programs using qt
everywhere and type "readelf -a <untitled>", result "bash: syntax error
near unexpected token `newline'"

on terminal on mini2440 i type "[root@FriendlyARM /home]# readelf -a
<untitled>" result "-sh: syntax error: newline unexpected" 
I dont know why !!!

.......

davef

2015-06-13 20:47:17

What extra tools did you load on to your host?

build-essential
automake
libtool
libncurses5-dev

I think Linux embedded developers, who write tutorials,  assume that you
know to have these tools on your host.  Fortunately, I worked with a
helpful software guy when I started with the mini2440!

See if those help.

Fanning

2015-06-13 22:57:47

Yahallo davef Thanks for rep !

I install elfutils with "sudo apt-get instsall elfutils"

go to home/fanning/mini2440 and type "readelf -a ./untitled" and the result
on the last:

The good news is that you have successfully cross-compiled it for the
mini2440.

> Tag_CPU_arch: v4T

Never installed elfutils, but obviously you needed it.

davef

2015-06-14 01:53:19

Yup, no elfutils on my machine.

Does your program work now?

Fanning

2015-06-14 11:19:01

What do you get when you do a readelf on /opt/pte/lib/libQtGui.so.4 ?

Fanning

2015-06-16 04:25:22

When you do a readelf on /opt/pte/lib/libQtGui.so.4
 the result :

ARM920T is correct for the mini2440.  I guess it is interchangeable with
4T.

Just checking ... /opt/pte/lib is actually on the target?

davef

2015-06-16 06:59:13

Sorry, that is a mistake.

You loaded the libraries from /opt/pte/lib on to the target?

davef

2015-06-16 07:09:09

My libQtGui.so.4 says 

Tag_CPU_name: "4T"  maybe yours is not correct.

All my cross-compilation is done using the Pengutronix tools.  Maybe, other
tools give it a different name.  I don't recall what readelf told me years
ago when I was using the FriendlyArm toolchain.

Fanning

Yahallo davef ! Thanks for rep ! 
I copy lib qteverywhere on desktop to mini2440 (libqtgui, libqtcore...)
I try to run app gui on mini2440 for 2 week but dont work....

davef

2015-06-16 20:08:04

Which tutorial are you following?

I recall one of the tricks was getting the correct library paths (there was
a long Qt thread with a solution on this site ... however I don't think it
had your particular error message.

It might be helpful searching through the Qt section on this old forum
http://billforums.station51.net/

Are you able to do a ts_calibrate?

Fanning

2015-06-24 12:51:23

Yahallo davef !
i cant access friendlyarm.net for 2 dAy.

I dont undertand what you say ! Ts_calibrate ?

davef

2015-06-25 00:14:15

Think the server was down.

As the first step in testing that your tslib works correctly on the target
doesn't the tutorial say to do a:

   ts_calibrate

on the command line

davef

2015-06-25 00:17:09

Sorry, your tutorial may not say that.

Do a Google search for <mini2440vietnam> and download his Qt tutorial.
