\title Connecting Embedded Linux Devices
|
||||
|
||||
You can connect embedded Linux devices to the development PC to run,
|
||||
debug, and analyze applications built for them from \QC.
|
||||
|
||||
If you have a tool chain for building applications for embedded Linux
|
||||
devices installed on the development PC, you can add
|
||||
it to \QC. You can then select a \l{glossary-buildandrun-kit}{kit}
|
||||
with \uicontrol {Embedded Linux} device type to
|
||||
build applications for and run them on embedded Linux devices.
|
||||
|
||||
To be able to run and debug applications on embedded Linux devices, you must
|
||||
add devices and select them in the \QC \l{glossary-buildandrun-kit}{kit}.
|
||||
|
||||
You use a wizard to create the connections. You can edit the settings later
|
||||
in \uicontrol Tools > \uicontrol Options > \uicontrol Devices >
|
||||
\uicontrol Devices.
|
||||
|
||||
\image qtcreator-linux-device-configurations.png "Devices dialog"
|
||||
|
||||
You can protect the connections between \QC and a device by using an
|
||||
\l{https://www.openssh.com/}{OpenSSH} connection. OpenSSH is a
|
||||
connectivity tool for remote login using the SSH protocol. The OpenSSH
|
||||
suite is not delivered with \QC, so you must download it and install it
|
||||
on the development PC. Then, you must configure the paths to the tools in
|
||||
\QC. For more information, see \l {Configuring SSH Connections}.
|
||||
|
||||
You need either a password or an SSH public and private key pair for
|
||||
authentication. If you do not have an SSH key, you can use the ssh-keygen
|
||||
tool to create it in \QC. For more information, see \l {Generating SSH Keys}.
|
||||
|
||||
\note \QC does not store passwords, so if you use password authentication,
|
||||
you may need to enter the password on every connection to the device,
|
||||
or, if caching is enabled, at every \QC restart.
|
||||
|
||||
To configure connections between \QC and an embedded Linux device and to
|
||||
specify build and run settings for the device:
|
||||
|
||||
\list 1
|
||||
|
||||
\li Make sure that your device can be reached via an IP address.
|
||||
|
||||
\li Select \uicontrol Tools > \uicontrol Options > \uicontrol Kits >
|
||||
\uicontrol {Qt Versions} > \uicontrol Add to add the Qt version
|
||||
for embedded Linux.
|
||||
|
||||
\li Select \uicontrol Tools > \uicontrol Options > \uicontrol Kits >
|
||||
\uicontrol Compilers > \uicontrol Add to add the compiler for
|
||||
building the applications.
|
||||
|
||||
\li To deploy applications and run them remotely on devices, specify
|
||||
parameters for accessing the devices:
|
||||
|
||||
\list 1
|
||||
|
||||
\li Select \uicontrol Tools > \uicontrol Options >
|
||||
\uicontrol Devices > \uicontrol Devices > \uicontrol Add >
|
||||
\uicontrol {Generic Linux Device}
|
||||
> \uicontrol {Start Wizard}.
|
||||
|
||||
\image qtcreator-screenshot-devconf-linux.png "Connection Data wizard"
|
||||
|
||||
\li In the \uicontrol {The name to identify this configuration} field,
|
||||
enter a name for the connection.
|
||||
|
||||
\li In the \uicontrol {The device's host name or IP address} field,
|
||||
enter the host name or IP address of the device.
|
||||
This value will be available in the variable \c %{Device:HostAddress}.
|
||||
|
||||
\li In the \uicontrol {The username to log into the device} field,
|
||||
enter the username to log into the device and run the
|
||||
application as.
|
||||
This value will be available in the variable \c %{Device:UserName}.
|
||||
|
||||
\li In the \uicontrol {The authentication type} field, select
|
||||
\uicontrol Default to use the currently displayed private
|
||||
key file for authentication. Select \uicontrol {Specific Key}
|
||||
to use some other key, and enter the path to the file that
|
||||
contains the private key in the field below. This value will
|
||||
be available in the variable \c %{Device:PrivateKeyFile}.
|
||||
|
||||
\li Click \uicontrol {Next} to create the connection.
|
||||
|
||||
\endlist
|
||||
|
||||
All of these parameters can be edited later, as well as additional ones that the
|
||||
wizard does not show because there are sensible default values. One of these is
|
||||
the SSH port number, which is available in the variable \c %{Device:SshPort}.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
\li Select \uicontrol Tools > \uicontrol Options > \uicontrol Kits >
|
||||
\uicontrol Add to add a kit for building for the device. Select the
|
||||
Qt version, compiler, and device that you added above, and choose
|
||||
\uicontrol {Generic Linux Device} for the device type.
|
||||
|
||||
\li To specify build settings:
|
||||
|
||||
\list 1
|
||||
|
||||
\li Open a project for an application you want to develop for the
|
||||
device.
|
||||
|
||||
\li Select \uicontrol Projects > \uicontrol {Build & Run} to enable
|
||||
the kit that you specified above.
|
||||
|
||||
\endlist
|
||||
|
||||
\li Select \uicontrol Run to specify run settings. Usually, you can use
|
||||
the default settings.
|
||||
|
||||
When you run the project, \QC deploys the application as specified by the
|
||||
deploy steps. By default, \QC copies the application files to the device.
|
||||
