[Buildroot] Adding new Qmake package

[James Kelly]

I've tried to add a package to Buildroot that uses Qt and Boost. The package uses qmake to generate a Makefile, this part seems to be working, however I get an error when I build saying:

Could not find qmake configuration file qws/linux-arm-g++.
Error processing project file: MsgDisplay.pro

The contents of my package is laid out like this:
DummyPgm
├── main.cpp
├── MsgDisplay.pri
├── MsgDisplay.pro
├── MsgDisplay.pro.user
├── MsgHandler.cpp
├── MsgHandler.h
├── MsgServer.cpp
├── MsgServer.h
├── Tcp
│   ├── TcpAddrPort.cpp
│   ├── TcpAddrPort.h
│   ├── TcpServer.cpp
│   ├── TcpServer.h
│   ├── TcpSocket.cpp
│   └── TcpSocket.h
└── Tools
    ├── Banner.cpp
    ├── Banner.h
    ├── IoExt.h
    ├── SeparateArgumentList.cpp
    ├── SeparateArgumentList.h
    └── SysTypes.h

2 directories, 20 files

I have added a package directory, dummypgm, which contains Config.in and dummypgm.mk files. The contents of the files are:

Config.in:

config BR2_PACKAGE_DUMMYPGM
        bool "dummypgm"
        help
          Foo Software.

          http://www.foo.com

dummypgm.mk:

DUMMYPGM_VERSION = 0.1.0
DUMMYPGM_SOURCE = DummyPgm-$(DUMMYPGM_VERSION).tar.gz

define DUMMYPGM_CONFIGURE_CMDS
    (cd $(@D); $(QT_QMAKE)  MsgDisplay.pro)
endef

define DUMMYPGM_BUILD_CMDS
        $(MAKE) -C $(@D)
endef


$(eval $(generic-package))

Since the package is hosted locally, I've simply put the DummyPgm-0.1.0.tar.gz in the dl directory.

I've also added the following to package/Config.in:

source "package/dummypgm/Config.in"

I'm a little lost as to why this doesn't work, if anyone could help me I would be very grateful. Also, is there any way to call $(eval $(qmake-package)) or something?

Thanks,
