- A1200/E6 have the same SDK from FoxE6.
- This is not an Official SDK from Motorola. so some class or header file not 100% working.

2. copy EZX library files from phone by commands
Quote:

How to setup EZX Crosstool and EZX SDK on cygwin 1. download Samr7-EZX-Crosstool-cygwin-FoxE6-SDK.tar.gz file.
2. copy it to cygwin folder. ie. C:\cygwin
3. open cygwin command prompt and extract it by commands
Quote:
cd /
tar zxvf samr7-ezx-crosstool-foxe6-sdk.tar.gz
|
Crosstool should be in /opt/crosstool and EZX sdk in /opt/dev-ezx in cygwin main folder.
4. copy ezx-library.tar.gz file from phone to /opt/dev-ezx/{PHONEMODEL}/lib
when {PHONEMODEL} is your phone model e6, a1200, e680i, or a780.
5. extract ezx library files by command
Quote:
cd /opt/dev-ezx/{PHONEMODEL}/lib

when e6 is your phone model. for convenient you can copy setENV.sh to anywhere for easy calling or can ln it to anywhere. and this step need to do everytime you open Cygwin.
2. now goto your work space folder and try to create HelloEZX application. extract and copy helloezx folder into your home folder (ie /home/eakrin) and change cygwin to your home folder by
3. this helloezx project contain 3 files. main.cpp, helloezx.h, and helloezx.cpp. first create a project file for helloezx by
4. create makefile for complier by command
Quote:
|
tmake helloezx.pro -o Makefile
|
5. create helloezx 's binary file by
if everything is ok you 'll get HelloEZX file in your folder.
6. testing your first app by copy helloezx file into your mmc and execute this commands via telnet.
Quote:
. /home/native/.profile <-- this command start with dot and space too.
/mmc/mmca1/HelloEZX

if you done a right step Hello EZX application should appear on phone screen. VIVA! you are new Ezx developer now!
7. package it into mpkg format for testing and distribute your application.
What to do next?
If you want to learn more QT goto
http://doc.trolltech.com/2.3/ If you have a problem about ezx header files. try to compare it with standard qt. or read its header file (*.h) in /opt/dev-ezx/e6/include/ some class will not 100% working. they need more modding and hacking because they are not official sdk from Motorola. feel free to asking problem at www.motorolafans.com. PS. If you got error in like this in cygwin Quote:
(2216): *** system shared memory version m
ismatch detected - 0x75BE007A/0x75BE007E.
This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the cygwin DLL.
Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility
and delete all but the most recent version. The most recent version *should*
reside in x:cygwinbin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have
installed the cygwin distribution. Rebooting is also suggested if you
are unable to find another cygwin DLL.

try to copy cygwin1.dll from c:\cygwin\bin to replace old cygwin1.dll in c:\windows\system32. this is mezzy because cygwin cannot delete its old library when installation. and Windows search can not find cygwin1.dll in c:\windows\system32. This error is occur after you reinstall or update cygwin version and have a error Can not delete cygwin1.dll. I got this solution from http://www.governmentsecurity.org/archive/t14374.html.
