  1. Chip Type :- Shiner
  2. Chip Rev :- M1
  3. Template :- 0A

Assumptions

  1. Trident reference software SDK 3.3.0 is configured with "source ./pnx8400_a9_env.sh sage_512M retail ipstb_license_free pnx8473 singlehd_512M.ini"
  2. Trident reference software SDK 3.3.0 is built on Host PC as conveyed in Trident's documentation given by Trident's Field Application Engineer.

  4. "Trident SDK 3.3.0" is installed at <Trident SDK 3.3.0 installation path>
  5. EGL and OpenGL ES 2.0 headers are located at <path to EGL headers>
  6. EGL and OpenGL ES 2.0 libs are located at <path to EGL libs>

Qt 4.8.0 EGLNullWS/QWS

Getting Qt 4.8.0 with Trident's mkspecs

  1. Extract qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0.tar.gz
  2. Create folder named "linux-trident-sage-g+" in "qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0/mkspecs/qws"
  3. Get following files in "qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0/mkspecs/qws/linux-trident-sage-g"
    1. https://gitorious.org/qt-platform-mkspecs/qt-platform-mkspecs/blobs/master/4.8/qws/linux-trident-sage-g/qmake.conf
    2. https://gitorious.org/qt-platform-mkspecs/qt-platform-mkspecs/blobs/master/4.8/qws/linux-trident-sage-g/qplatformdefs.h

h3. Compiling Qt 4.8.0 <

Set the development environment variables using following commands 

 cd /path/to/Trident_SDK_3.3.0/
 export MY_BUILDTREE=/path/to/Trident_SDK_3.3.0/SRC

Configure, build and install Qt 4.8.0 as 

 $ /path/to/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0/configure -embedded arm -xplatform qws/linux-trident-sage-g''+  -little-endian -opensource -confirm-license -release -shared -verbose -qt3support -freetype -qt-sql-sqlite -system-libpng  -system-libjpeg -no-openvg -no-rpath -qt-gfx-linuxfb -qt-gfx-transformed -qt-gfx-vnc -qt-gfx-multiscreen -qt-kbd-linuxinput  -no-kbd-tty -qt-mouse-linuxinput -no-mouse-pc -xmlpatterns -exceptions -declarative -script -scripttools  —prefix=/path/to/installation/directory/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0-qws/ -make libs -make tools -make examples  -make demos -make docs -make translations -webkit -javascript-jit -opengl es2 -plugin-gfx-eglnullws -qt-gfx-directfb -no-xvideo -multimedia

 $ make
 $ make install

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

  1. QTDIR=/path/to/installation/directory/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0-qws/
  2. PATH=/path/to/installation/directory/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0-qws/bin/

Before executing any Qt applications on target copy "/path/to/installation/directory/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0-qws" from host on target at "/path/to/installation/directory/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.0-qws" on target file system

h2. Qt 5.0 EGLFS/QPA

Only QtBase module is tested.

h3. 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-
  3. SDK_BUILDSPEC=<build specification for given board>
  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 

 $ configure —prefix=/path/to/installation/directory/qt-gitorious-opensource-src-5.0  -release -opensource -confirm-license -shared -verbose -device linux-arm-trident-pnx8473-g++  -device-option TRIDENT_SHINER_SDK_BUILDTREE=<Trident SDK 3.3.0 installation path>/SRC  -device-option 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-  -device-option TRIDENT_SHINER_SDK_BUILDSPEC=sage_512M-ipstb_license_free-gcc-4.5.2_uclibc-linux-retail  -device-option TRIDENT_SHINER_SDK_INCDIR_EGL_OPENGL_ES2=/target_opt/OpenGLES20Headers/include  -device-option TRIDENT_SHINER_SDK_LIBDIR_EGL_OPENGL_ES2=/target_opt/3ddrivers/usr/lib
 $ make module-qtbase
 $ make module-qtbase-install_subtargets

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

  1. QTDIR=/path/to/installation/directory/qt-gitorious-opensource-src-5.0/
  2. 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" from host on target at "/path/to/installation/directory/qt-gitorious-opensource-src-5.0" on target file system
