Accessing Qt Deliveries
The delivery model defines how the Qt source code and binaries are provided for you. You have an access to the Qt deliveries with at least one of the following ways:
- Qt online installer
- Via Qt account
- Through a separate download
- Through Qt Professional Services
The separate downloads are Qt Board Support Packages (QBSP) that are available via Qt Account Downloads. QBSP packages may also be available through the corresponding vendor pages.
For more information about QBSP, see Qt Board Support Packages.
Standard and Premium Support
Qt provides different support levels in order to help you with technical challenges and to suggest best practices. Qt Support describes the available support levels and what is included in them. See License Agreements and Service Terms for the latest version of the Qt license agreements and the support terms and conditions for the Qt account.
Qt Professional Services
Qt Professional Services provides support for porting Qt to different target hardwares. For example, your project may have minimal Qt and QPA (Qt Platform Adaptation layer) source code delivery. On the other hand, your project can be mature turnkey solution that contains customer applications and maintenance.
Supported Target Operating System Versions
In Qt for Device Creation, the supported target operating system versions are:
- Embedded Linux based on Yocto 2.7.3 (Warrior)
- QNX 7.0
- INTEGRITY 11.44 including patches (and GHS compiler 2016.5.4 or 2017.1)
VxWorks
The following Real-Time Operating System (RTOS) versions are used in Qt's internal test environment:
- INTEGRITY 11.4.4 on Renesas R-Car H3
- INTEGRITY 11.4.4 on i.MX6
- INTEGRITY 11.7.2 on Qualcomm Snapdragon 820
- QNX 7 on i.MX6
VxWorks
Emulator Support
Support for the emulator is limited to the Qt for Device Creation release and pre-compiled emulator images it shipped with. Using the emulator application to run images from previous releases is not supported.
Supported Development Hosts
The development hosts supported by Qt for Device Creation are:
- Ubuntu Linux 64-bit (16.04 LTS or later)
- Windows 7 32-bit and 64-bit
- Windows 10 32-bit and 64-bit
Note: Support for macOS 10.10 (or later) with a limited functionality has been provided for some customers by Qt Consulting Services. For more information, contact us.
Support Lifecycle Policy
Release dates and support end-of-life dates for each Qt version are listed in Supported Platforms and Configurations.
