Hi,

We have to develop a QT application for our AM57x Development board. which version of QT creator is supported with AM57x ?
Is there any example programs and getting started tutorials for the same.

with regards

In my experience, you should use the latest version of QT creator and expect it to work with whatever version of QT you are developing for.

The version of QT that ships with the 20220323 tisdk-rootfs-image image is 5.11.3

I wrote up this wiki page, hope it helps. https://support.criticallink.com/redmine/projects/mitysom_am57x/wiki/QT_Starter_Guide_2022

Hi Jonathan

We followed the guidelines as per the link https://support.criticallink.com/redmine/projects/mitysom_am57x/wiki/QT_Starter_Guide_2022 and installed Qt Creator,Qt5 Designer,Qt5 Assistant,Qt5 Linguist.(Qt Version:5.9.5)

But while going through this step " Select the Compilers tab. Click on Add -> GCC -> C. Navigate to <SDK path>/sysroots/x86_64-arago-linux/usr/bin/arm-criticallink-linux-gnueabi/ and select arm-criticallink-linux-gnueabi-gcc. Change name to "GCC (C 57x)" ", we couldn't find the mentioned file/folder arm-criticallink-linux-gnueabi,instead we find the following set of files/folders in bin folder (screenshot is attaching herewith )

Another problem we come across is in the step : " Select the "Qt Versions" tab that is shown. Click the "Add..." button. Navigate to <SDK path>/sysroots/x86_64-arago-linux/usr/bin/ and click on qmake. Change Name to "Qt %{Qt:Version} (57x)" ",a dialogue box appeared telling that the same was added already and we find a red error icon across the qmake location file name.(screenshot is attaching herewith)

Thanks and Regards

You are right, this was a copy/paste mistake. I've updated the instructions. You found the correct path.

Another problem we come across is in the step : " Select the "Qt Versions" tab that is shown. Click the "Add..." button. Navigate to <SDK path>/sysroots/x86_64-arago-linux/usr/bin/ and click on qmake.

Can you check again after setting up the compilers? You may need to hit apply or okay and reopen the dialog.
Also did you source the toolchain and launch qtcreator from the same terminal?

Thanks and Regards
