Building PySide for Android

[Adrià Cereto Massagué]

Hi,

I've been attempting to build PySide 1.1.1 for android, with python2.7 from https://github.com/kivy/python-for-android
and using Necessita's bundled NDK r6b with Linaro's toolchain 4.6.2.

I'm using adapted versions of Thomas Perl's patches.

So far, I've been able to build libshiboken, but i has been built as libshiboken.so while PySide looks for libshiboken-python27.so.
A symlink solved that.
Then PySide would complain about missing shiboken binary... then a symlink against the host machine shiboken binary solved that too.
And now I'm stuck trying to generate the bindings for QtCore:

Linking CXX shared library libpyside.so
[  3%] Built target pyside
[  4%] Running generator for QtCore...
Fatal error: line=22, column=71, message=Failed to parse: 'typesystem_core_android.xml'

Cannot parse file: /home/ssorgatem/pyside-android/BuildScripts/pyside/build/PySide/QtCore/typesystem_core.xmlmake[2]: *** [PySide/QtCore/PySide/QtCore/qabstracteventdispatcher_wrapper.cpp] Error 1
make[1]: *** [PySide/QtCore/CMakeFiles/QtCore.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

The relevant contents on typesystem_core.xml are:

<typesystem package="PySide.QtCore">
    <load-typesystem name="typesystem_core_android.xml" generate="yes"/>
    <load-typesystem name="typesystem_core_common.xml" generate="yes"/>
</typesystem>

But typesystem_core_android.xml does not exist. If I write it by hand it disappears again, so it's being removed, and
therefore I guess it should be generated in some way... but how?
Any ideas?

Thank you,

Adrià

Hi again,

I've managed to get PySide/QtCore.so built, (typesystem_core_android.xml did not disappear, after all)
but now it's QtGui who's not wanting to build. Here's the output:

I have no clue about what to do next. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Adrià
