The binary file is not generated

[Yisus7u7]

Hello, compile quazip on Android (Termux) And the executable file is not generated, why?

[jonaski]

What executable file?

[Yisus7u7]

I mean, the executable file, quazip , that file is not generated

[Yisus7u7]

I ran make install and everything if it worked, but the executable file that goes in the /bin folder did not appear

[jonaski]

The only executable there is, is qztest, which is the unit test. You need to have Qt test installed to build the unit tests.

[Yisus7u7]

So what are the build instructions?

Stack Overflow has quite a nice article on how to ask a good question. Perhaps you should carefully read it and try again. Because as it is, this issue is very confusing. It is not obvious what problem you're trying to solve, you haven't mentioned if you made any research, what docs you've read (if any) and what you find unclear or confusing in them. So far the only thing that more or less clear is that you've successfully compiled a C++ library, but look for an executable file for some reason. Why do you need one? What would you do with it if you had one? What problem would you solve that way? These are not questions I ask now, these are things that should've been clear from the initial issue description.

Start by giving this issue a reasonable name. One that has at least some meaning. Something like “Trying to build unit tests, get an XXX error” would do just fine. Although judging by that you've been looking for an executable file named quazip, I don't think this issue has anything to do with unit tests... In fact, at this point I'm not even sure this issue has anything to do with QuaZip at all...

[Yisus7u7]

I think I'm confused, is quazip an application or is it a library?

[stachenov]

It is a C++ library for developing applications with Qt (a toolkit consisting of libraries and various utilities used by software developers). If you're not a developer, you probably have no need of it, unless if you're trying to compile an application that depends on QuaZip.

[Yisus7u7]

Oh ok, now I understand everything, I thought quazip was an app, sorry for the hassle

[Yisus7u7]

Can you tell me any application that uses the quazip library?

[Yisus7u7]

I explain, I'm just looking for apps and libraries to add to the graphical environment of the termux application

[stachenov]

No, not really. I initially developed this library to use at work for some in-house software. This is actually the second time I hear it can be compiled for Android at all!

Although I'm not really aware of any non-android apps that use it either... Sure thing, some app developers create issues, and some mention apps they develop, but I don't seem to remember any of those.

[Yisus7u7]

When I say Android, I mean Termux, termux is a terminal emulator with package manager for Android, does not require root and runs a Linux environment on the cell phone, termux does not use root (sudo) and has more than 1000 packages, termux natively uses Android APIs, but the apps and libraries compiled on it are still similar to those of a Unix system

[Yisus7u7]

And termux provides a graphical environment, it can be manipulated using wayland and vnc, that screenshot I mentioned are screenshots of my cell phone, it's a normal android cell phone with termux and xfce4

[Yisus7u7]

So when I say "some app that uses the quazip library", I mean an app for linux, to compile the en termux

[stachenov]

Yeah, I know what Termux is. Use it myself.

No, I don't know any Linux apps either, as I've already mentioned.

[Yisus7u7]

Yeah, I know what Termux is. Use it myself.

No, I don't know any Linux apps either, as I've already mentioned.

Oh ok, I'll find out on my own, same thanks, maybe soon add this library
