Porting QT3 or 4

**antonyang** · 3rd October 2006, 02:36

Dear all,
I'm caught in a situation where my customer needs my OS to have QT3 or 4 embedded. But i'm not sure if there is a possiblity of porting this into my current system. The current system is Linux v.2.4.7 and compiler Gcc 2.95.3 ( for ARM cpu).
My questions are the following....
The application that we need to include is compiled with Qt ver 3.3.4. Library. What are the possibilities of supporing Qt library v3?
If successfully ported, will I have to rewrite all my hardware APs?
Kind Regards,
Anton

Qt needs an X server to run. If you don't have one on your system, you will need an embedded version of Qt and you will have to port the application.

If you have a running X server, there shouldn't be any problems with running Qt3.

Unless you will have to use Qt/Embedded or Qtopia Core, Qt shouldn't change much in your system.
