I tried to build Qt 6.2.4, installed via qt-unified-linux-x64-4.3.0-1-online.run on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS in a Virtual Box.
I installed Qt 6.2.4 in ~/Qt6 for Desktop gcc 64-bit and in source code.
QNX 7.1 is installed in ~/qnx710.
I sourced qnxsdp-env.sh:
$ . ~/qnx710/qnxsdp-env.sh
I added Qt6.2.4, Ninja and CMake to PATH:
$ export PATH=$PATH:~/Qt6/6.2.4/gcc_64/bin
$ export PATH=$PATH:~/Qt6/Tools/Ninja
$ export PATH=$PATH:~/Qt6/Tools/CMake/bin
Copied the qnx.cmake example from https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/building-qt-for-qnx.html#creating-a-toolchain-file-for-qnx
$ cat ~/cmake_support/toolchains/qnx.aarch64le.cmake
set(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME QNX)
set(arch gcc_ntoaarch64le)
set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER qcc)
set(CMAKE_C_COMPILER_TARGET ${arch})
set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER q++)
set(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_TARGET ${arch})
set(CMAKE_SYSROOT $ENV{QNX_TARGET})
Created a build directory and configured qt:
$ mkdir ~/Qt6/6.2.4/qnx_build
$ cd ~/Qt6/6.2.4/qnx_build
$ cmake -GNinja -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=~/cmake_support/toolchains/qnx.aarch64le.cmake -DQT_HOST_PATH=~/Qt6/6.2.4/gcc_64 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/Qt6/6.2.4/qnx ../Src
Compile and install
$ cmake --build . --parallel && cmake --install .
This all went fine.
Then I tried to add the new Qt Version to Qt Creator, but this fails with Qt version is not properly installed, please run make install. Details: Invalid Qt version.
And of course, once creating a kit, it fails and can't be used.
Any idea how to fix this?
The Qt version was indeed not properly installed.
qmake expects a specific directory for target libraries
$ ~/Qt6/6.2.4/qnx/bin/qmake -v
QMake version 3.1
Using Qt version 6.2.4 in /home/werner/qnx710/target/qnx7/home/werner/Qt6/6.2.4/qnx/lib
So to fix QT Creator, I simply had to create a symbolic link:
$ cd ~/qnx710/target/qnx7
$ mkdir -p home/werner
$ ln -s ~/Qt6 .
