Note

This will only work with Qt 5.15 (customized AndroidManifest.xml file) and requires WearOS 2 or later.

Running on an android/iOS phone will also work, please see the generic readme-build.md.

It is assumed that you already enabled the developer settings on your watch.

--

Every Lisp file under lisp/ and every qml/image/font/whatever file under qml/ is added automatically to your Qt project file (both for re-compile and adding to resources included in the executable).

So, you only need to manually care about the usual ASDF project files in app.asd.

But -- of course -- you still need to run the respective qmake command every time you add new files to the project, because the automation is all defined in app.pro.

Build 32bit android APK

First you need to connect your device through WiFi. Please set your watch IP address in build-android/connect.sh and run:

$ ./build-android/connect.sh

You probably want to build a 32bit version, because most watches are 32bit.

For this you first need to build a 32bit version of the LQML library, see readme-prepare-android.md.

Now you can build the app:

$ cd build-android

$ qmake-android .. # "CONFIG+=32bit" can be omitted here: already defined in app.pro
$ make apk

$ ./install-run.sh

Log note: for showing only your own messages, see log.sh.

Important note (Qt bug)

After editing AndroidManifest.xml in Qt Creator you need to add this inside activity:

android:theme="@android:style/Theme.DeviceDefault"

If you omit the above setting, the app will not start and just show an error message instead.
