  3. Extract qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0.tar.gz
  4. Apply following patches on extracted qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0 in given order
    1. qt-embedded-4.8.0-st200.patch
    2. qt-embedded-4.8.0-sh4.patch
    3. qt-embedded-4.8.0-armvX.patch
    4. qt-embedded-4.8.0-mmap.patch
    5. qt-embedded-4.8.0-add_SRC_OVER_rule.patch
    6. qt-embedded-4.8.0-add_window_console_message_from_javaScript.patch
    7. qt-embedded-4.8.0-reset_CacheLoadControlAttribute_to_default.patch
    8. qt-embedded-4.8.0-adds_for_webkit_jit.patch
    9. qt-embedded-4.8.0-directfb-enable-QT_NO_DIRECTFB_PREALLOCATED-QT_DIREC.patch

    11. qt-embedded-4.8.0-st231_disable_fno-stack-protector.patch
    12. qt-embedded-4.8.0-Accelerate_QtWebKit_animated_images.patch
  5. Create folder named "linux-sh4-ST7108-g+" in "qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0/mkspecs/qws&quot;
    # Get following files in "qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0/mkspecs/qws/linux-sh4-ST7108-g"
    ## https://gitorious.org/qt-platform-mkspecs/qt-platform-mkspecs/blobs/master/4.8/qws/linux-sh4-ST7108-g/qmake.conf

h3. Compiling Qt 4.8.0


Set the development environment variables using following commands

<br /> cd /path/to/STM_SDK_3.5/<br /> source /path/to/STM_SDK_3.5/mysetenv.sh HDK7108_7108_LINUX<br />


Configure, build and install Qt 4.8.0 as

<br /> $ /path/to/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0/configure -opensource -confirm-license  -verbose -release -shared -no-rpath -system-zlib -system-libjpeg -system-libpng  -qt3support -qt-sql-sqlite -xmlpatterns -exceptions -declarative -script -scripttools  -webkit -no-javascript-jit -qt-gfx-linuxfb -qt-gfx-transformed -qt-gfx-vnc -qt-gfx-multiscreen  -qt-kbd-linuxinput -qt-mouse-linuxinput -make libs -make tools -make examples -make demos  -make docs -make translations -platform qws/linux-x86-g''+  prefix=/path/to/installation/directory/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0-qws/  -xplatform qws/linux-sh4-ST7108-g++ -embedded sh4 -little-endian -opengl es2  -plugin-gfx-eglnullws -qt-gfx-directfb <s>no-dbus<br /> $ make<br /> $ make install<br />


After the build succeeds set following environment variables before building any Qt Apps,
# QTDIR=/path/to/installation/directory/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0-qws/
# PATH=/path/to/installation/directory/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0-qws/bin/


h2. Qt 5.0 EGLFS/QPA
Only QtBase module is tested.
h3. Compiling Qt 5.0
One need to pass following "device-option&quot;s
# CROSS_COMPILE=<STLinux-2.4 installation path&gt;/STLinux-2.4/devkit/sh4/bin/sh4-linux

Configure, build and install Qt 5.0 as

<br /> $ configure prefix=/path/to/installation/directory/qt-gitorious-opensource-src-5.0 -release -opensource -confirm-license -shared -verbose  -device linux-sh4-stmicro-ST7108-g++  -sysroot &lt;STLinux-2.4 installation path&amp;gt;/STLinux-2.4/devkit/sh4/target  <s>device-option CROSS_COMPILE=&lt;STLinux-2.4 installation path&amp;gt;/STLinux-2.4/devkit/sh4/bin/sh4-linux</s><br /> $ make module-qtbase<br /> $ make module-qtbase-install_subtargets<br />


After the build succeeds set following environment variables before building any Qt Apps,
# QTDIR=/path/to/installation/directory/qt-gitorious-opensource-src-5.0/
# PATH=/path/to/installation/directory/qt-gitorious-opensource-src-5.0/bin/

Before executing any Qt applications on target copy "/path/to/installation/directory/qt-gitorious-opensource-src-5.0&quot; from host on target at "/path/to/installation/directory/qt-gitorious-opensource-src-5.0&quot; on target file system
