Copy the Wayland 1.18.0 source code from VLP Yocto build folder to SD card.i.e. copy rootfs

As currently you are still in QEMU environment, you can open a new Terminal window to copy VLP source code to rootfs.

Run below command in new Terminal:

$ sudo cp ~YOUR_VLP_FOLDER/build/tmp/work/aarch64-poky-linux/wayland/1.18.0-r0/wayland-1.18.0/

Port Qt

You can port Qt by following 3 methods

Port from VLP
Compile & Install Qt from source
Install Qt by apt-get

Port from VLP

In this section, we will copy Qt5.6.3 related files from original VLP Yocto build.

i.e. core-image-qt-smarc-rzg2l.tar.bz2

Pleaes copy this .bz2 file to Ubuntu SD card and run below instruction on reference board

unzip core-image-qt-smarc-rzg2l.tar.bz2 to folder "yocto"

Run below command in new Terminal:

(For other version of Qt, you can modify Yocto meta-qt5\recipes-qt\qt5, please inqury Qt company for higher version QT integration)

Compile from source

You can download qt5 source to reference board and compile on board.

Or cross compile qt5 on PC

Or compile qt5 in PC QEMU

Here we compile qt5 on board

Collapsecompile qt5

download qt5 source code by git (ignore)

mkdir qt5-build cd qt5-build make make install （rsync to SD）

We suggest to compile the qt5 with scrips

Notes: About the flags parameter in configure of Qt5. -qpa should be set as wayland or wayland-egl. We didn't support xcomposite-egl option

Install Qt by apt-get

apt-get install qt5-default qtwayland5

make make install （rsync to SD）

Notes: The above installation commands can only run part of Qt functions. If you need more functions, you need to continue installing Qt related packages.
