Starting Qt console application on Android using QProcess

[pckoster]

Hi All,

I'm trying to start a QCoreApplication based program on Android using a QProcess. I've created a GUI-app (which runs fine) and a back-end app called 'backend' which is called from the GUI-app. Both are in the same package. Using ADB shell I can see the file (which has 'lib' prepended and '.so' appended to it) I use this code to start the backend:

// Create backend process
	QProcess* backendProcess = new QProcess;	
 
// Initialize the backend process and start
backendProcess->setWorkingDirectory("<path_to_the_so_file>");
backendProcess->start("./libbackend.so");

// Create backend process
	QProcess* backendProcess = new QProcess;	

// Initialize the backend process and start
backendProcess->setWorkingDirectory("<path_to_the_so_file>");
backendProcess->start("./libbackend.so");

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

The backendProcess->state() gives me a 'Process not started' and backendProcess->errorString() a 'Process crashed'....

I'm not sure if this is the correct way of starting a Qt console process (I've digged into JNI, but no clues on implementation in regards to Qt). Has anyone crossed this problem as well, or any clues on how to solve this?

Thanks!
