BCM 7425 - Qt 4.8 - DirectFB /QWS

Building AppLibs/RefSW for Qt

  1. Locate document named "BroadcomReferencePlatformSetup.pdf&quot; (Usually this will be inside a tar ball named on the lines of refsw_release_<chip-name&gt;<date&gt;.tgz)
    # Follow the instructions in "BroadcomReferencePlatformSetup.pdf&quot; to setup the Linux build machine
    # Locate document named "AppLibsInstallationBuildGuide.pdf&quot; (Usually this will be inside a tar ball named on the lines of applibs_release
    <date&gt;.tgz)
  2. Follow the instructions in "AppLibsInstallationBuildGuide.pdf&quot; to build Applibs

Qt 4.8 DirectFB / QWS

  1. Obtain qt-4.8.0 release from "Qt Download site&quot;:http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0.tar.gz and extract it in a working folder
  2. Obtain 7425 specific files from "qt-platform-mkspecs git&quot;:http://gitorious.org/qt-platform-mkspecs (look for folder "4.8&quot;)
  3. Copy folder named "linux-7425dfb-mipsel-uclibc-g+" to <qt-4.8.0-sources&gt;/mkspecs/qws
    # Set following environment variables in the shell before configuring/building Qt,
    BCM_APPLIBS_PATH=&lt;path-till-Applibs-folder&amp;gt;/AppLibs<br />BCM_NEXUS_PATH=&lt;path-till-Applibs-folder&amp;gt;/nexus<br />BCM_TARGET_LIBDIR=&lt;path-till-nfsrootfs-base-folder&amp;gt;/romfs/lib<br />DEBUG=n
    

    for example,
    $ export BCM_APPLIBS_PATH=/home/qtnokia/WorkDir/97425-P1/stb-rs_p2-al_p2dot1/AppLibs<br />$ export BCM_NEXUS_PATH=/home/qtnokia/WorkDir/97425-P1/stb-rs_p2-al_p2dot1/nexus<br />$ export BCM_TARGET_LIBDIR=/opt/nfsroot_uclibc/romfs/lib
    

    # Configure Qt as,
    $ configure -embedded mips -xplatform qws/linux-7425dfb-mipsel-uclibc-g''+ -depths 16,24,32 -no-largefile -no-accessibility -opensource -verbose -system-zlib -system-libpng -system-libjpeg -system-freetype -fast -qt-gfx-directfb -qt-gfx-vnc -qt-kbd-linuxinput -qt-mouse-linuxinput -webkit -declarative -multimedia -confirm-license -release -make libs -xmlpatterns -exceptions -no-qt3support -no-xvideo <s>prefix /usr/local/qt-installs/qt480ga-mdfb-rel
    

    # Build Qt as,
    $ make<code><br /># Install Qt on host as,<br />
    
    $ make install


h2. Building Qt apps


# After the Qt build succeeds set following environment variables on host before building any Qt Apps for the above build,
*QTDIR=/usr/local/qt-installs/qt480ga-mdfb-rel
*PATH=/usr/local/qt-installs/qt480ga-mdfb-rel/bin:$PATH
# Ensure that following environment variables in the shell are set,

BCM_APPLIBS_PATH=&lt;path-till-Applibs-folder&amp;gt;/AppLibs<br />BCM_NEXUS_PATH=&lt;path-till-Applibs-folder&amp;gt;/nexus<br />BCM_TARGET_LIBDIR=&lt;path-till-nfsrootfs-base-folder&amp;gt;/romfs/lib<br />DEBUG=n


# Invoke qmake on the applications .pro file

$ qmake &lt;application&amp;gt;.pro<code><br /># Build the application sources as,<br />

$ make


h2. Running Qt apps on target
# Ensure that folder "qt-installs/qt480ga-mdfb-rel&quot; is copied on target file system at "/usr/local&quot;
Note after copying, the path should appear as "/usr/local/qt-installs/qt480ga-mdfb-rel&quot;

  1. Copy the application binary and other required resource files on target file-system, at say "/root&quot;
  2. On target, goto directory containing directfb startup script as,
    # cd /usr/local/bin/directfb/1.4<code>
    # Install board specific modules and create device nodes by running &quot;rundfb.sh&amp;quot; as,<br />
    
    # ./rundfb.sh install
  3. Launch application using same rundfb.sh script as,
