Hi,

I'm currently working on an embedded project where we are going to use Qt-4.7.3. The project is based on a custom board with an ARM9 processor (Freescale i.MX25) with Linux-2.6 on it. Host PC is based on Fedora-14.I have to also implement touch screen feature.This is the first time I'm doing this(means first time qt for embedded project) so I thought I'ld check that I got the procedure right. This is how I think that it should be done:

1. Cross compile Qt libraries for the ARM architecture.
2. Deploy the libraries to the /usr/lib directory on the filesystem for the board. (Set environment variables pointing to Qt libraries?)
3. Develop the Qt-application on a Linux-PC
4. Cross compile the Qt-application
5. Deploy the application on the board.
6. Execute the application.

Now, am I correct on that?

If so, can you tel me the procedure for all above mentioned steps, how can i do that?Means:

# Procedure for installation of Qt-4.7.3 on host PC(Fedora-14) for ARM architecture or how can i Cross compile Qt libraries for the ARM architecture with touch screen feature and keypad?
# Procedure for deployment of libraries.
# Procedure for development and cross-compilation of qt-application on Linux-PC.
# Procedure for deployment of application on the board.
# Procedure for running the application.

Kindly explain in detail.

Plz help me anybody !

Regards,
Sanjeet

Hello Sanjeet!

I'm on the same boat as you and wanted to know how did it work out for you? I'll be grateful if you came across any resources or tutorials on the matter
