Automotive Cluster Display Demo for WinCE6

Hey,

Thank you for trying that demo. Here some steps how I was able to get the example compiled from source:

  1. Download http://developer.toradex.com/files/toradex-dev/uploads/media/Colibri/WinCE/Special/QT/qt-win-opensource-4.8.4-vs2008_Toradex_WinCE6_NO_GL.exe

  2. Install it to standard path, otherwise its not working correct

  3. Download and install Toradex Documents - Toradex CE6 SDK

  4. Apply patch http://docs.toradex.com/102861-patch-qt-win-opensource-4-8-4-vs2008-toradex-wince6-no-gl.zip to Qt

  5. Maybe apply http://docs.toradex.com/102482-updatesdknames.zip as well, to your Qt installation

  6. Download Automotive sources from here: www.kdab.com/~andy/QtAutomotiveClusterDemo.zip

  7. create a build folder somewhere next to the deflated sources.

  8. open VS command line

  9. Navigate to created build folder

  10. type in C:\Qt\4.8.4\bin\qmake.exe <path to sources>

  11. Open in Visual Studio 2008 the project file which got created

  12. Open project settings and change under debugging and deployment all occurrences from %CSIDL_PROGRAM_FILES% to \flashdisk

  13. make sure conmanclient2 and cmaccept are started on target(beware you need to connect to target in 2 minutes after starting cmaccept, otherwise you need to run it again)

  14. Tools → Options… → Device Tools → Devices → Select Toradex_CE600 → Properties → Configure … → Use specific IP address and fill in your targets ip address. Click 2 x ok

  15. Start debugging and see after a while the application on the screen of the Colibri VF61

Hint: Conmanclient2 was crashing when I tried to deploy the application a second time, files on flashdisk needed to be deleted before deploying again.
