I'm trying to start qtcreator. System - netbsd 9.3/amd64 qtcreator - http://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/amd64/9.3/All/ | qtcreator-5.0.3nb3.tgz qt5 - http://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/amd64/9.3/All/ | qt5-5.15.4.tgz everything was installed with the pkg_add command on a clean system http://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/iso/9.3/NetBSD-9.3-amd64.iso When I try to configure qtcreator, I get an error - there are no suitable compilers for this system that can generate the required binary. Or something like that. Details are in the screenshot. Explain to me fool - what am I doing wrong??? Two screenshots are attached. [URL=https://i.imgur.com/3ZSoJiG.png][IMG]https://i.imgur.com/3ZSoJiGh.png[/IMG][/URL] [URL=https://i.imgur.com/fpncIUW.png][IMG]https://i.imgur.com/fpncIUWh.png[/IMG][/URL]

On your first screenshot, there's a tab called compilers. What do you see there? If nothing, you should install gcc/g++ or clang/clang++. If you also want to debug (which I guess so) you'll need to install a version of gdb with python scripting enabled which is disabled in the version available in pkgin so the only way is to get it enabled to build via pkgsrc. The other possibility is (currently experimental according to Qt but works for me mostly) is to install lldb.

QT Creator

starsnet

r0ller
python is a great evil! don't even mention it to me)
compilers and debuggers are installed. even a few pieces.
but for some reason, qt creator is not perceived.
or maybe because of the version? I installed gcc 10. maybe install an older version?..

r0ller

Ok, I can only check my settings tomorrow but what I can already tell is that it is looking for a compiler that can produce what it says on your very first screenshot: x86-bsd-netbsd-elf-64bit. Usually, the automatically recognized compilers are not set like that so choose the manually configured ones one by one and set that there. I cannot provide you with any screenshot now but if you select a manually configured compiler, some details will be shown for it and at the bottom of it, there are several dropdowns where you can select all those. As far as I can recall, you'll have to start by 'custom' in the first dropdown. Besides that, I have the experience that once it's configured properly, it may still report that 'no compiler can produce code for this Qt version' but still work. I don't know what it depends on but I use it now for a few years for compiling native c++ stuff and webassembly stuff so I can tell you that it can be set to work 🙂 I'll check my setup tomorrow. The only difference compared to yours is that I've just changed to qt6 and have not set up the creator completely for that yet. In the worst case, I still have my previous qt5 setup in a NetBSD virtual machine.

starsnet

r0ller
which path do you have here ?
And the path to which program should be indicated here ?

starsnet

I also tried manually.
In the list of compilers, at the bottom, where they are manually configured, there are two compilers with an explicit indication of the version/architecture/API, etc. Anyway, he writes that there are no suitable compilers.

If you provide your settings, I would be very grateful to you

P.S.
Unfortunately, this is the whole NetBSD - nothing just works like that)

r0ller

Sorry, I wrote it from the top of my head so there was a mistake about setting the compilers: 'custom' shall not be set at the ABI section but shall be chosen from the dropdown when choosing Add. If you set the C/C++ compilers that way, the Qt Versions tab won't complain any more as your path is fine there. Don't forget to specify the path to the system make (/usr/bin/make) for the C/C++ compilers. It looks like this for me:

Don't forget to select your custom C/C++ compilers for your native kit and set also debugger:

Unfortunately, I have now other problems 🙂 Though the build starts when I trigger it but it stops with:
ld: warning: libstdc++.so.7, needed by /usr/pkg/qt6/lib/libQt6Quick.so, may conflict with libstdc++.so.9
ld: /usr/pkg/qt6/lib/libQt6Quick.so: undefined reference to std::pmr::monotonic_buffer_resource::~monotonic_buffer_resource()@GLIBCXX_3.4.28' ld: /usr/pkg/qt6/lib/libQt6Quick.so: undefined reference tovtable for std::pmr::monotonic_buffer_resource@GLIBCXX_3.4.28'

*** [hi_qml_ui] Error code 1

So I'll have to work on my new setup as well 🙂

r0ller

Ok, adding qt5 to the Qt Versions, makes the project compile fine with the same compiler setup. So I'll have to figure out why it doesn't work with qt6. But the setup I shared above shall work for you with qt5 🙂

r0ller
I have a suspicion that something is wrong with the paths..

r0ller

starsnet Do you mean that it still doesn't work for you?

starsnet

r0ller
It turns out that it was a mistake in the assembly of the program itself))))))))
I carefully read the errors - and only then saw))
Thank you for your help!

Could you try compiling this program? https://gitlab.com/qtemu/gui
I want to see if it will include NVMM, or if it will need to be edited..

starsnet

starsnet
when i try compile this project i have errors:
:-1: warning: "/usr/bin/gcc" is used by qmake, but "/usr/pkg/bin/clang" is configured in the kit.
Please update your kit (x86-bsd-netbsd-elf-64bit) or choose a mkspec for qmake that matches your target environment better.

:-1: warning: "/usr/bin/c++" is used by qmake, but "/usr/pkg/bin/clang++" is configured in the kit.
Please update your kit (x86-bsd-netbsd-elf-64bit) or choose a mkspec for qmake that matches your target environment better.

starsnet qmake is part of qt5-qtbase and the later is gcccompiled.

starsnet

pin
i havn't qmake in system ( i didn't know why )

starsnet Have a look at the qt5-qtbase PLIST.

qt5/bin/qmake is provided by the qt5-qtbase package. If you want to use qmake you need to install qt5-qtbase.

But, the pre-compiled binary is compiled with gcc and not with clang.

starsnet

pin
I would be happy to use gcc)
but I can't configure gcc in qtcreator.

starsnet but I can't configure gcc in qtcreator.

It looked like it was an option in your screenshots.
At least base gcc was listed above as /usr/bin/gcc. Do you mean it doesn't find pkgsrc gcc?

I've never used qtcreator myself.

r0ller

starsnet Yepp, I forgot about that: if you try to do so, it'll say that gcc has already been configured even if you remove the automatically detected ones. Nevertheless, even if it complains that clang is selected for the kit, it does use gcc (due to mkspecs) and does the job. But I agree it's not nice. I'll check if it can be done better. Actually, I'm just thinking of writing an mkspec file for clang as it's basically about setting a bunch of relevant shell variables like CC.

UPDATE: Well, no clue why, yesterday it did not let me add custom compilers for /usr/bin/gcc and /usr/bin/c++ but today it does. That makes the two warnings (about different compilers being set for the kit than in mkspecs) vanish.

starsnet

Acording to numerous hints and screenshots of r0ller, I configured qtcreator.
"two teas for this gentleman!" (to r0ller)))

The issue is resolved, and it can be closed.

I want to say that setting up qtcreator in netbsd is not so trivial. Perhaps it's worth writing a separate post on the setup. With the maximum possible number of screenshots.

If there is time, I will try to write. If someone else doesn't want to)

r0ller

starsnet Glad to hear it 🙂 It is indeed not trivial. Especially if you want to target something else like android or webassembly. I managed to set it up for webassembly and to some extent android as well but for the latter it cannot build the project. If you need webassembly, start here: https://github.com/r0ller/NetBSD-Qt-Notes 😉 However, those notes are somewhat outdated as since then there are many stuff in pkgin that can be installed and does not need to be built from source like the binaryen package.
