I tried to install qt-creator on beaglebone directly.
so I downloaded qt-create on qt-web site, and typed ”
chmod +x qt-creator-linux-opensource-2.8.1.run
./qt-creator-linux-opensource-2.8.1.run
”
but beagle bone answered
‘./qt-creator-linux-x86-opensource-2.8.0.run: cannot execute binary file’
what’s problem?
Hi Jiwon,
the problem is, that it cannot execute that binary :)))))
Or in other words:
The binary you donloaded is a "*-linux-x86-*" file,
which supports intel platforms.
The beaglebone and beaglebone black are ARM platforms
and use a totally different assembler code.
HTH!
Best regards,
mcc

thanks. i understand.
but is there any way to install qt-creator on bbb directly??
in case of ubuntu i can install qt creator(just type 'apt get install qtcreator`)
or is there exist qt-creator arm version?
Try to install and tell us if exists
You can run ubuntu on a BBB and there's a qtcreator package for it:

You can also build it from source, but that might be non-trivial.

I don’t understund why people want to run qtcreator right on a slow target while it is much easier and faster to run it on a powerful x86 host. You can configure qtcreator to cross-compile sources by an arm-gcc and deploy the binary to a target immediately by ssh.
To some people the BBB might be the only 'computer' they use for
development. I agree with you, I don't do it, just answering the question 
cheers,

Deat Nuno,
I already thought of the same thing. Sorry, I did not want to offend any one.
However in this case any serious experience with any embedded platform becomes a real pain in ass. Initial steps are better to perform at a pc. You need a console first of all
