SO we have cover now how to build and execute apps for your desktop host. So once the build is over, your application will get executed on your host successfully.

For now, you can build the ‘adder’ project simply for your desktop by selecting the project and pressing the build and execute button on the left panel. The utility is quite simple to use and I shall explain how to start development in it in the next post. You can even just browse through the available examples in your system and create your own if you are well versed with Qt Creator. the development is done in Qt Creator which comes with the complete installation of Qt SDK. Now, the good thing is that you can first create an applications and test it on your host. You can download it either as a tarball or just get it from GitoriousĪlso, untar the toolchain and set it up in the PATH so that you get ready for cross-compiling. Get the simple adder utility that I have made. Now you can either start making your own app or use mine for testing. but for the time being we’ll just create a small project called adder. I’ll cover al this in another post if you wish. This means going through the tutorials and the usual stuff of creating a hello world application etc. Once its done, get some feel of developing application using Qt for just your x86 host. You can however do away with the last part only if you have a geek girl or you are deaf 🙂 So we begin our journey.

In this post I’ll just make use of a simple adder program that I have created. What we are going to do is create an app that uses the Qt APIs which inturn will use some libs that we just ported and therefore do whatever we tell it to.
