Hi,

My solution is still in progress, however there is a possibility to develop QT applications on AM625, AM62A, AM68, AM98 device platforms itself. But it requires huge effort to prepare system for development stage. But, for a personal computers with preinstalled GUI operating system (GNOME, KDE) the solution is this:

Building Qt Creator from Git - Qt Wiki

Keep in mind, that QT development requires to choose one of licence agreement, which makes impossible commercial production in one way, or huge per month payments in other.

Regards,

Alexey

Hi,

I have no problem running precompiled QT or OpenGL-ES application from SDK, but I cannot compile them inside SDK. This is completely different matter.

Hello,

Just to clarify, are you talking about compiling Qt application on the platform? I guess I did not understand what you mean by "inside SDK".

Hi Alexey,

I was a little confused by Freddy's question and your response. I wasn't sure if both of you were referring to the same thing. In general, one would need to enable all the recipes/lib dependencies to enable on target compilation. I am not sure if Qt community have guidance for that and I would recommend you to check with them.

Hi,

At least, for Ubuntu system the answer is here. Building Qt Creator from Git on Ubuntu 22.04 - Qt Wiki

But for SDK platform it requires to install developer ediition of perl, python, GCC, cmake, glib, gopbject, meson, ninja, X11, gnutls, LLVM/clang, rustc, Mesa, cairo, pango etc.. And, of curse, developer version of dbus, which is hard to make working on SDK.

Alexey
