    Default Trouble configuring Qt

    Hi,

    I am trying to write a program to put on my beaglebone and I have been trying research how to properly do the process for a few months now and I just can not get it. The problem comes when I am trying to do ./configure and make. Even if I do ./configure with no options and then run make, it will fail. Below is my current setup that I am trying.

    Hardware/Software
    Host- Ubuntu 12.10 64bit
    Target- beaglebone
    Qt- 4.8.3 opensource
    Angstrom toolchain- angstrom-2011.03-x86_64-linux-armv7a-linux-gnueabi-toolchain-qte-4.6.3


    I have been finding some guides online and trying to follow them but I always get errors at some step that I can't fix. Here are some of what I looked are below.

    Here is my qmake.conf for the target (/mkspecs/qws/linux-arm-gnueabi-g++). I have tried many different variations.

    Qt Code: 
    1. #
    2. # qmake configuration for building with arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++
    3. #
    4.  
    5. include(../../common/linux.conf)
    6. include(../../common/gcc-base-unix.conf)
    7. include(../../common/g++-unix.conf)
    8. include(../../common/qws.conf)
    9.  
    10. QMAKE_CFLAGS_RELEASE =   -O3 -march=armv7-a -mtune=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp
    11. QMAKE_CXXFLAGS_RELEASE = -O3 -march=armv7-a -mtune=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp
    12.  
    13. # modifications to g++.conf
    14. QMAKE_CC  = /home/scott/angstrom/toolchain/usr/local/angstrom/arm/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-gcc
    15. QMAKE_CXX = /home/scott/angstrom/toolchain/usr/local/angstrom/arm/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-g++
    16. QMAKE_LINK = /home/scott/angstrom/toolchain/usr/local/angstrom/arm/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-g++
    17. QMAKE_LINK_SHLIB        = /home/scott/angstrom/toolchain/usr/local/angstrom/arm/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-g++
    18.  
    19. # modifications to linux.conf
    20. QMAKE_AR                = /home/scott/angstrom/toolchain/usr/local/angstrom/arm/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-ar cqs
    21. QMAKE_OBJCOPY           = /home/scott/angstrom/toolchain/usr/local/angstrom/arm/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-objcopy
    22. QMAKE_STRIP             = /home/scott/angstrom/toolchain/usr/local/angstrom/arm/bin/arm-angstrom-linux-gnueabi-strip
    23.  
    24. load(qt_config)
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    For my configure options
    Qt Code: 
    1. ./configure -opensource -confirm-license -no-qt3support -nomake examples -embedded arm -little-endian -xplatform qws/linux-arm-gnueabi-g++ -prefix /opt/qt4-beagle -release -platform /qws/linux-x86_64-g++  -host-big-endian
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 
    I'll get a bunch of text and then I will get lines and lines of these

    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    Then I will get more lines and lines of the Parse errors and at the very end I get

    Once everything is built, you must run 'make install'.
    Qt will be installed into /opt/qt4-beagle

    To reconfigure, run 'make confclean' and 'configure'.


    And if I do a make just for kicks and giggles, I will get a bunch of assembler instruction errors

    Qt Code: 
    1. ../../include/QtCore/../../src/corelib/arch/qatomic_armv5.h:131: Error: no such instruction: `swpb %dl,%r12b,[%rbx]'
    2. ../../include/QtCore/../../src/corelib/arch/qatomic_armv5.h:131: Error: no such instruction: `swpb %cl,%dl,[%rbx]'
    3. make[1]: *** [.obj/release-shared-emb-arm/qabstractanimation.o] Error 1
    4. make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/scott/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.3/src/corelib'
    5. make: *** [sub-corelib-make_default-ordered] Error 2
    To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

    My path and qmakespec is below

    PATH="/home/scott/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.3/bin/:/usr/arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/:/home/scott/CodeSourcery/SCB_Lite_ARM/bin:/home/scott/CodeSourcery/SCB_Lite_ARM/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games"
    QMAKESPEC="/home/scott/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.3/mkspecs/qws/linux-x86_64-g++"

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks

    Hello,

    I successfully managed to cross-compile Qt and run my Qt apps on Beaglebone.
    Here is my configure:
    ./configure -prefix ~/armhf-build -opensource -confirm-license -embedded arm -platform qws/linux-x86-g++ -xplatform qws/linux-omap3-g++ -little-endian -host-little-endian -no-webkit

    Hi

    I have the same setup and have been trying for ages to set it up correctly.

    Did the suggested solution work for you? Have you managed to get it working?
