Is it possible to compile a Qt+QML+OpenCV application for android

Question

I have an application in my windows 7 which is written using Qt + QML and OpenCV . Now I'm wondering whether it is possible to compile it using necessitas project for android or not? I think I won't have problem with Qt+QML part of the project but is it possible to link a library(statically or dynamically) like opencv?I think I have to recompile the libraries for android! Am I right?
Do I have alternatives to compile this project for android?

Answer 1

I think you can do that. Qt/QML seems to be quite good with necessitas, only some little changes might be necessary, but nothing impossible. I've done a couple of porting myself and I always got to the target quite fast. You sure can link to other libraries, and maybe necessitas also provides a way to do that simply: there might be something to work on (http://sourceforge.net/p/necessitas/tickets/106/) but you should succeed.

OpenCV on the other hand must be recompiled for Android yes. Anyway, I'm not an expert but I remember it has very few dependencies, so you should succeed on that as well. Also consider reading this: http://docs.opencv.org/doc/tutorials/introduction/android_binary_package/dev_with_OCV_on_Android.html#native-c . That porting might also be done already.
