Cross compiling Qt 4 apps for linux

[Dante]

I entered commands below in my project directory:

qmake -project
qmake -spec linux-g++ calc++.pro

then inside the cygwin shell ,in the project directory,I entered the make command but it answered:

Makefile:104: *** multiple target patterns. Stop.

what should i do?
And I thought I should use a cross-compiler like cygwins g++-linux.
And could you explain about the OS modes in qmake?
thanks

You know.I really need the answer of this question.thanks again

i think a cross-compiler is one which compiles for a particular target machine/architecture, not the host machine.. what is the target for your cross compiler

[Dante]

Its Linux and my goal is exactly compiling for a target OS.

I'm going to ask the dumb question here: Leaving Qt aside for the moment, have you been able to cross-compile a simple Hello World application on Windows for Linux?

With your last Makefile error you could try looking at the output of

make -n

make -n

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

to see what it is actually trying to do.

It gives the same error with the difference that it prints 66 instead of 104 and it is the same with make itself,too.
