    Hi,
    I had compiled Embedded Device of qt5 using yocto. (in case i had used meta-toolchain-qt5)
    And then install sdk using the script that created by after compile.

    I had tried to use the sdk in QtCreator tool. (Tool -> options > Build&Run, goes Qt Versions tabs and added Qt by click add button)
    I think it should be aware as Qt version 5.5.1 for Embedded Linux,
    but It was recognized as the Qt version 5.5.1 for Desktop.

    Could shares to me what is the problems?

    Thanks
    ricky

      Maybe it is just wrong naming?
      What do you see if you expand Details in "Qt Versions" after selecting your manually added Qt?
      What is ABI there?

        @jsulm i think... it should be displaying as Qt version for embedded...
        But,
        If there is no problem when operating, it doesn't care.

        Anyway.
        Here is detail information.

        Name:
        Qt 5.5.1 rsdk
        ABI: x86-linux-generic-elf-64bit
        Source: /usr/local/oecore-x86_64/sysroots/corei7-64-poky-linux/usr
        mkspec: linux-oe-g++
        qmake: /usr/local/oecore-x86_64/sysroots/x86_64-oesdk-linux/usr/bin/qt5/qmake
        Version: 5.5.1
        --- skiped ---

        Thanks.

          So, your device is x86 based?
          If it works then I guess it is just a naming issue (maybe the logic is: x86 ? "Desktop" : "Something else").

            Yes, it is base on x86.
            Ok, it seems be a just naming issue.

            Does not all x86 system separate the embedded, desktop system?
            or
            only happend to me?

            Thanks

              I don't know how QtCreator handles desktop/embedded when you add Qt.
