i try to compile qt4.6.2 since 10 day and i have this error

my host is linux ubutu 9.10 i686

please help me.

what is the problem ?

i use arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi , i have tested with
arm_none-linux-gnueabi and is a same.

thanks you for your responses.

Thats how i compile it:

2.)  Tar fvx qt-embedded-linux-opensource-src*
3.)  Cd qt*
4.)  NOTE: Add –O0 in mkspces/common/g++.conf conf file
5.)  exchage the compiler in mkspces/qws/arm-linux/

BTS: could u tell me which speed u achieve with qt plz! thx!

NOTE: Add –O0 in mkspces/common/g++.conf conf file 

–O0 = -O0

i am do all that you say but is a same, may be is a tar that i downloaded
for nokia,  i will test another archive of qtopia 4.6.2.

else have you archive of qtopia that work ?

where can i download it ?

thanks

what is –O0 ??

@andromeda:

what is –O0 ?? 

was supposed to mean -O0 which disabled the compiler optimization



The files i published so far can be found here:

i have transfered librarie qt from your site in my board, when i launch a
exampe the tslib-1.0.so is not present, can you put on your site the
library tslib ?


i have downloaded tslib-1.O and compil but i am error 

when i launch ./autogen.sh:

thank you for your response

is ok now for compile tslib

sudo ./autogen.sh

./configure CC=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc CXX=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++
-host=arm-linux -target=arm -enable-static=no -enable-shared=yes

thanks

hi,

in this http://mini2440.sv-design.at/

what is a version of qt from this link ?

is 4.6.2 ?

because the file private/qpixmapdata_p.h from directory
usr/qt/include/qt/private doesn't exist but exist in version qt-everywhere
4.6.2

and i don't compile demo programm.

thanks in advance.

i have copied directory from qt-everywhere and it seem is ok

Yea its 4.6.2 and it worked all fine for me.. exept the speed thingy..


just copy the lib and plugins folder to /usr/qt/lib ajnd /usr/qt/plugin

and use the FULL to compile your own projects

Seppo

hi,

in which directory i must put a file libz.so.1 ?

because ./helloworld -qws don't work, the libz.so.1 is not found in my
board

i have put libz.so.1.2.3.3 in all directory lib ans link to this file
libz.so.1
/usr/lib
/lib/opt/Qtopia/lib
/usr/qt/lib
???????

thanks in advance

recompiling libz.so.1.2.3 is ok now

@andromeda

u can just tell qt o sue its own zlib with something like -qt-zlib or so

Hello all,

I am getting the following error messages on ubuntu 9.10

1. qmake: 1: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")'

 You might need to modify the include and library search paths by editing
 QMAKE_INCDIR and QMAKE_LIBDIR in
 /home/mike/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.0-tp/mkspecs/qws/linux-arm-gnueabi-
g++.


Please help, any input is welcome.

Note: This error message is reported on Ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04 with
arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++ or arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-g++

Thanks,

I am getting the same error! Any updates on this one?

In file <path to qt>/mkspecs/qws/linux-arm-g++/qmake.conf

I added:

QMAKE_INCDIR += <path to your tslib dir>/tslib-1.0/src
QMAKE_LIBDIR += <path to your tslib dir>/tslib-1.0/src/.libs

I also added (I'm using nfs to boot)...

QMAKE_LIBDIR += <path to my nfs root>/lib

Hope this helps.

Hello All,

This works for me...

In qmake.conf file at the option '-ffast-math' as shown below to enable the
floatmath (floatmath enabled). As for the other msges, just disable those
components through your configuration options (e.g. -no-mmx -no-3dnow and
so on) or just leave those options out and qt 4.x will compile. 

QMAKE_CXX = arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-g++ -ffast-math

Also, to solve the The tslib functionality test failed, just add the
following to qmake.conf prior to "load(qt_config)".

QMAKE_INCDIR = "Path to your tslib include directory"
QMAKE_LIBDIR = "Path to your tslib lib directory"

Note: Do not export "QMAKE_CC=arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc" to your
environment and so on. The only export you need in your environment is
"QWS_MOUSE_PROTO=Tslib:/dev/input/mouse0"

Hope this helps, cause this is what worked for me.

Hi all,
I have tried to build qt4.6.2 but I don't understand why it doesn't work.

First I run configure:

sudo ./configure -embedded arm -prefix /usr/local/Qt -release -shared -fast
-pch -no-qt3support -no-sql-sqlite -no-libtiff -no-libmng -no-libjpeg
-qt-zlib -no-libpng -no-freetype -no-openssl -nomake examples -nomake demos
-nomake tools -optimized-qmake -no-phonon -no-nis -no-opengl -no-cups
-no-xcursor -no-xfixes -no-xrandr -no-svg -no-phonon-backend -no-3dnow
-no-largefile -no-gif -no-mmx -no-xrender -no-xmlpatterns -no-xkb -no-sm
-no-xinerama -no-xshape -no-webkit -no-separate-debug-info -xplatform
qws/linux-arm-g++ -depths 16 -no-qvfb -no-gtkstyle -qt-gfx-linuxfb
-no-gfx-qvfb -no-kbd-qvfb -no-mouse-qvfb -little-endian

and it seems to be ok.
But when I try to run make it given the next error:

arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++ -ffast-math -pipe -fno-exceptions -O0 -Wall -W
-D_REENTRANT -fPIC -DQT_SHARED -DQT_BUILD_CORE_LIB -DQT_NO_USING_NAMESPACE

make[1]: arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++: Command not found
make[1]: *** [.pch/release-shared-emb-arm/QtCore.gch/c++] Error 127

And if I given arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++ command it seems to work ok:
=> arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++: no input files

So, could any tell me what is the wrong?  What I should be do?

Try running

# qmake confclean

before running

# qmake

That might help.

Also, is arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++ in your path? Or was it just in the
current directory when you tested it?

Thanks Tim,
arm-none-linux-gnuebai-g++ is my path.  Problem is when I try to run make
in sudo mode.  If I run make without sudo then I get the next error:

global/qt_pch.h:1: fatal error: can't create precompiled header
.pch/release-shared-emb-arm/QtCore.gch/c++: Permission denied
compilation terminated.

How I can set the path so that it works also in sudo?

Hi,

I was just compiling Qt 4.6.2 and everything went ok, but just after I made
some changes.

sudo make install fails because says it can't find
arm-none-linux-gnueabi-ranlib. If I don't use sudo then it fails because it
says "Permission denied". The directory I was using to install Qt was
/usr/local/Qt

To solve this do the following:
In my case user=luis, group=luis, in your case use your
go to /usr/local/Qt
sudo chown -hR luis Qt/
sudo chgrp -hR luis Qt/

Change both user and group of destination directory to your user and group.

After that, just execute:
make install
everything should work ok, regarding the permissions issue.


Best regards,
LDS

Hi LDS and thank you very much.
I changed permission with chown and now all is ok.
And next questions is: What next?
How I use(or start) Qt 4.6.2?
Where I can find examples for that?

Best regards 
pera

Nice to know that you made it.

Well, the next step is to copy everything in /usr/local/Qt (the
installation directory) to the MINI2440 exactly in the same place
(/usr/local/Qt) so that the executable files can find the files they need
(libraries). You can also boot or copy the files using TFTP ou NFS.
After that, you should set every ambient variable needed LD_LIBRARY_PATH,
QTDIR, TSLIB variables, etc. 

After that, just run one of the examples using qws flag like "./application
-qws", since you don't have any Qt server running.

Best regards,
LDS

Hi LDS,
I have tried to copy all in /usr/local/Qt but big problem is that there are
not enough a space in my mini2440 board. 
I have 128M borad and about 70M the free space but this is not enough for
that.
Do I need all library of Qt or can I copy only what needed?

Best Regards
pera

You can leave all the examples out except one or two to try if it works.
And you probably don't need all the fonts, just use the ones you need in
your app, or the example.

Best regards,
LDS

Hello,

i've managed to resolve many bugs in the Qt Embedded version 4.6.2, but
when I execute one of the examples in my Mini2440 board I get the following
error:

[root@FriendlyARM sdi]# ./sdi -qws

./sdi: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/Qt/lib/libQtGui.so.4: undefined
symbol: _ZN23QCoreApplicationPrivate19checkReceiverThreadEP7QObject

The result of export command is:

export HOME='/root'
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH='/usr/local/Qt/lib:/usr/local/lib:'
export LOGNAME='root'
export PATH='/usr/local/Qt/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin'

export TERM='vt102'
export TSLIB_CONFFILE='/usr/local/etc/ts.conf'
export TSLIB_PLUGINDIR='/usr/local/lib/ts'

Anybody has any idea how to solve this error?
I'd be much appreciated.

Best regards,
LDS

Hi there, the instructions of upgrading Qt4.6.2 is written in my blog. If
possible, please take a look there.
http://mini2440vietnam.blogspot.com/2011/04/upgrade-qt462-in-mini2440.html

The most annoying problem i have ever come across is this , while you
configure QT - for cross compilation in UBUNTU pc.

-- Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")

The almost unanimous fix for this issue is, something along the lines of
"sudo rm /bin/sh; sudo ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh"
to make /bin/sh point to /bin/bash. It would be worth seeing if this fixes
the issue.

Dear all,

please anyone help me.

while compiling qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.6.2
i got following Error

Hi Sunil/Bala, 

I am seeing similar issue where I was getting following error, 
/home/xenon/Documents/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.6.2/bin/qmake: 1:
Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")

But after changing sh -> bash, I am getting 
/usr/local/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.6.2/config.tests/unix/compile.test:

Anyone has any solution for same.
