Qt 5.0 EGLFS/QPA

Only QtBase module is tested.

Compiling Qt 5.0

One need to pass following "device-option"s

  1. SDK_BUILDTREE=<Trident SDK 3.3.0 installation path>/SRC
  2. CROSS_COMPILE=<Trident SDK 3.3.0 installation path>/SRC/open_source_archive/linux/toolchains/gcc-4.5.2_uclibc/usr/bin/arm-linux-uclibcgnueabi-

  4. SDK_INCDIR_EGL_OPENGL_ES2=<path to EGL headers>
  5. SDK_LIBDIR_EGL_OPENGL_ES2=<path to EGL libs>

Configure, build and install Qt 5.0 as
