[Erwan SZYMANSKI]

Hello @asadullah4571 ,
Can you tell me on which OpenSTLinux version you are please ? 

As information, on OpenSTLinux v5.1, the support of Qt is made through X-LINUX-QT Expansion Package (https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu/wiki/X-LINUX-QT_Expansion_Package). In  this article indeed, you have explanations to configure QtCreator IDE. 

However, this package is made for STM32MP2x series right now. The support for MP1x series will come in Q4 2024.

If you absolutely need Qt on STM32MP15 before, you can stay on OpenSTLinux v 5.0, and look at the Wiki article here that are still usable (https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu-ecosystem-v4/wiki/How_to_build_and_use_an_SDK_for_QT)

Kind regards,
Erwan.

Hello @asadullah4571,

In your kit window, I see "Qt version" item as "invalid".

Could you please go to the Kits -> "Qt Versions" panel and check the "qmake Path" set in the tool is correct.

It should point to qmake SDK tool. Something like:

<Your PC Install path >/SDK/sysroots/x86_64-ostl_sdk-linux/usr/bin/qmake

BR,

Hello @asadullah4571,

you probably only installed Starter Package which is used to see existing Qt applications.

If you want to develop your own Qt application, you should use "Developer package" option (doc section 6.1.2). With the MPU SDK and its Qt SDK Addon, Qt Creator will be configured automatically and you will get your MPU kit all set in Qt creator.

BR,

Philippe

Hello @asadullah4571,

in case you use the Distribution Package, you need to generate an SDK with "-c populate_sdk" Yocto command.

Then use sysroot, GCC/G++, GDB and qmake paths from this SDK.

hello @PPAGE.13 

in your SDK package i did not find any qmake.

home/md/SDK/sysroots/x86_64-ostl_sdk-linux/usr/bin/.

Hello @asadullah4571,

let me clarify a bit more:

- For Developer Package: the standard SDK you can download from st.com does not contain any Qt features like qmake.

This is integrated inside X-LINUX-QT SDK add-on. For mp1, this is not today available (only mp2).

When you install the X-LINUX-QT SDK add_on, Qt creator will be configured automatically.

- For Distribution package (your case), you need to generate your own SDK after having compile your image with Qt feature.

Please refer to our wiki page for all related to SDK generation: https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu/wiki/How_to_create_an_SDK_for_OpenSTLinux_distribution 

bitbake st-image-qt

bitbake st-image-qt -c populate_sdk

Then install the SDK: execute "xxx.sh" script available in: build-openstlinuxweston-stm32mp15-disco/tmp-glibc/deploy/sdk

The installed SDK will contain Qt features (libs, qmake, ...), please use it to configure manually Qt creator.

Philippe.
