QFontDatabase::addApplicationFont works in Embedded Linux, but not in Linux Ubuntu
Hi!
I have an app developed with Qt 4.8 compiled for both Embedded Linux Arm as well as Linux Ubuntu. It uses a specific set of fonts which I need to have installed for it to run, something I do with QFontDatabase::addApplicationFont. Everything works fine when I compile for Embedded Linux, but when I do it for Linux Ubuntu, I got -1 and the fonts are not loaded.
I tried to find on the web a solution for the problem but I found no help. Similar problems were solved by updating Qt 4.6 to 4.7 (nothing of use) or by installing fontconfig, which I already have. Also I couldn't find anything useful in Qt Assistant and checked the paths to the .ttf files.
Any help will be appreciated.
Here is the code I'm using:
Code:
QDir fontDir
(DEFAULT_FONTS_PATH
);
mDebugS
(QString("Found %1 fonts on folder theme/fonts").
arg(fontFileList.
size()));
//
qint32 fontId;
foreach (const QString& filename, fontFileList)
{
fontId
= QFontDatabase::addApplicationFont(DEFAULT_FONTS_PATH
"/" + filename
);
if (Q_UNLIKELY(fontId == -1))
{
const QString strTemp
= QString("Unable to install font %1").
arg(filename
);
mLog(strTemp);
mDebugS(strTemp);
}
else
applicationFontsIdList.append(fontId);
}
mDebugS
(QString::number(applicationFontsIdList.
size()) + " fonts are installed");
Note: the same question was put in StackOverflow (link)
