Hi everyone,

unfortunately i couldn't get any help on the qt-project forum, so i'd like to try it here as well.
i could need some help to better understand the platform concept (eglfs, xcb).


My system
I crosscompiled Qt5.3 on my linux debian desktop and i use QtCreator to write QML code and deploy it to my raspberry pi.


My goal:
A program that runs on the rpi, but the gui is shown on my Win7 desktop computer.
-> I want to use QML quick 2.0 and quick.controls
-> I was thinking about a putty ssh / X11 connection and XMing on Win7


My available platform plugins after compiling qt5 for the raspberry:
  • eglfs
  • minimalegl
  • offscreen
  • linuxfb
  • minimal



Questions:
  1. The eglfs plugin doesn’t support X11, right?
  2. Does XCB support X11?
  3. If (2) is true, then where do i get the xcb plugin for my raspberry?
  4. Is there another plugin that is better suited for my goal than the xcb plugin?



Thanks so much for your help,
Ben
