Qt development on Fedora Linux raises questions, what can be done on Fedora Linux and what else is needed and how it can be used when using Linux desktop?

Development mode: C++ (Widget) vs QML (XML)

Both are supported, with some limitations.

What are the differences

Can real targets be connected via USB-cable and application be launched from Fedora Linux?

Locally? No idea.

Remotely to Windows or Mac OSX: In theory yes. Fedora's RDP client FreeRDP supports USB-port redirection over IP and some devices like USB-cameras and smartcard readers are reported to work (2019 beginning). However, the forwarding appers to be device specific and Android- and iOS-phones are not supported.

Few notes:

  • Fedora's freerdp package needs to be recompiled with -DCHANNEL_URBDRC_CLIENT=ON setting (that is off by default in spec) and reinstalled
  • In order to work on Windows host must be enabled:
    • processor in server must support Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (SSE2) run: dxdiag
    • MS: RemoteFX USB Redirection
    • freerdp - RemoteFX
    • run gpedit.msc as an Administrator
    • Group Policy Computer Configuration, Administrative Templates, Windows Components, Remote Desktop Services, Remote Desktop Connection Client, RemoteFX USB Device Redirection: Allow Admnistrator and users
    • run cmd, gpupdate /force as an Administrator
    • reboot

Examples at Linux side:

/usr/bin/xfreerdp /u:John\ Doe  /v:server.example.com /usb:auto

redirect all devices that are connected after session connection.


# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 009: ID 05ac:12a8 Apple, Inc. iPhone5/5C/5S/6
.
.
/usr/bin/xfreerdp /u:John\ Doe  /v:server.example.com /usb:id,dev:05ac:12a8

usb redirection and redirect device 05ac:12a8 (id in lsusb listing).

/usr/bin/xfreerdp /u:John\ Doe  /v:server.example.com /usb:dbg,id,dev:05ac:12a8

same as before with debugging.

Messages like:

[WARN][com.freerdp.channels.urbdrc.client] - bus:0 dev:0 not exist in udevman

should be harmless.

Currently this apparently does not work from Fedora desktop to Windows.

Google Android toolchain:

Android SDK, NDK (native development kit, C/C++), Java (Linux OpenJDK can be used).

Apple iOS toolchain: XCode

Development for iOS devices is done using Apple Xcode IDE. To use it, the Apple developer account and iOS Developer Program certificate is needed and received from Apple when joining to the developer program. Certificate is used to install application to a device.

Xcode runts on Mac OS X operating system that is based on BSD variant. Its binaries and hence Xcode does not run directly on Linux. However, OS X can be run inside virtual machine like VirtualBox that runs on local Fedora desktop. The problem is getting the OS X installation image file (DVD .iso file).

The current Mac OS X relase is High Sierra 10.13.6 (2019-05-20).
