Qt for Embedded Linux RequirementsBuilding Qt for Embedded Linux with uclibcIf you intend to include the QtWebKit module in your Qt build then you should use version uClibc 0.9.29 or greater as that is the earliest version with sufficient pthread support. QPAQPA (Lighthouse) should be used for new projects. QPA is a platform independent windowing architecture that allows easy porting of UI code between platforms. For further information about using QPA consult the README file in qtbase/src/plugins/platforms/<your platform>. For example, for the X graphical environment under Linux you will need to use the '-xcb' configure option and also read the file qtbase/src/plugins/platforms/xcb/README to see a list of required packages. Memory RequirementsThe memory and storage requirements for Qt for Embedded Linux depend on a an variety of different factors, including the target architecture and the features enabled in the Qt build. The Fine-Tuning Features in Qt document covers the process of configuring Qt builds to avoid the inclusion of unnecessary features. Additional X11 Libraries for QVFbThe Virtual Framebuffer (QVFb) application requires the libxtst library in addition to the libraries used to build Qt for X11. This library enables the use of the Record extension to the X protocol to be used in applications. See also Known Issues. |
