h2. Building AppLibs/RefSW for Qt
- Locate document named "BroadcomReferencePlatformSetup.pdf" (Usually this will be inside a tar ball named on the lines of refsw_release_<chip-name><date>.tgz)
# Follow the instructions in "BroadcomReferencePlatformSetup.pdf" to setup the Linux build machine
# Locate document named "AppLibsInstallationBuildGuide.pdf" (Usually this will be inside a tar ball named on the lines of applibs_release<date>.tgz) - Follow the instructions in "AppLibsInstallationBuildGuide.pdf" to build Applibs

Building Qt 5
- Obtain qt-5.0.0 from "git":http://wiki.qt.io/Building_Qt_5_from_Git (follow instructions in "Getting the source code")
- Obtain 7425 specific files from "qt-platform-mkspecs git":http://gitorious.org/qt-platform-mkspecs (look for folder "5.0")
- Copy folder named "linux-nxs-mipsel-uclibc-g+" from 7425 specific repo to <qt-5.0.0-git>/qtbase/mkspecs
# Set following environment variables in the shell before configuring/building Qt,
' BCM_APPLIBS_PATH=<path-till-Applibs-folder>/AppLibs
' BCM_NEXUS_PATH=<path-till-Applibs-folder>/nexus
' DEBUG=n
' for example,
' $$ export BCM_APPLIBS_PATH=/home/qtnokia/WorkDir/97425-P1/stb-rs_p2-al_p2dot1/AppLibs
' $$ export BCM_NEXUS_PATH=/home/qtnokia/WorkDir/97425-P1/stb-rs_p2-al_p2dot1/nexus
# Apply patch "7425-eglfs.patch" from 7425 specific repo to <qt-5.0.0-git>/src
' $$ cd <qt-5.0.0-git>/src
' $$ patch -p1 < 7425nxs-eglfs.patch
# Configure Qt in qtbase folder as,

# After the build succeeds set following environment variables before building any opengl Qt Apps,
