This is done by adding a + \e {Qt Board Support Package} (QBSP) to your existing Qt installation, and + flashing an SD card used by Raspberry Pi with a \e {Boot to Qt} system + image. + + \note Windows and Linux are supported as development hosts, but \macos is + not supported. + + First, complete the \l {Qt Edu for Developers} installation steps before + continuing. + + \section1 1. Download QBSP + + Log in to your \l {https://login.qt.io/login}{Qt Account}. Go to the + \uicontrol Downloads section and select \e {Qt for Device Creation QBSP + for the EDU license} from the drop-down menu in the \uicontrol {Product} + field. + + \image qt-edu-qbsp.png + + Download the correct version of the \e {.qbsp} file for your development + host (Windows or Linux). + + \image qt-edu-qbsp-download.png + + \section1 2. Run the maintenance tool + + Go to Qt's installation folder, and run \uicontrol {MaintenanceTool}. + + \image qt-edu-maintenancetool.png + + Maintenance tool allows you to modify your existing Qt installation. + Navigate to \uicontrol {Custom installation} and select + \uicontrol {Next}. + + \image qt-edu-custominstallation.png + + Select \uicontrol {Browse QBSP files}. In the file dialog window, locate + and select the \c {.qbsp} file you downloaded from your Qt Account. + + \image qt-edu-browse-qbsp.png + + After this, the list of available components is updated. Under + \uicontrol {Boot to Qt Software Stack}, select \uicontrol {Raspberry Pi} + and then \uicontrol {Next}. This will install the Boot to Qt system image + and toolchain for Raspberry Pi. + + \section1 3. Open Qt Creator + + To complete the setup, the Boot to Qt system image needs to be flashed to + an SD card used as the boot drive for Raspberry Pi. In addition, Qt Creator + needs to be configured for connecting to the device running the Boot to Qt + software stack, using either a wired or wireless network connection. + + These steps are performed in Qt Creator, see + \l {Qt Creator: Connecting Boot2Qt Devices} for details. +*/ |
