Unable to Run VimbaC in Ubuntu 20.04

[selvaACA]

Hello,

Scenario:

• I am extending the provided Dockerfile with the base image of Ubuntu 20.04 to build the shared library.
• I am using the Vimba 6.1 (ARM64) from here since it is needed by vimbasrc element

Issue:

• Vimba 6.1 (ARM64) has dependency on Qt4. However, it is not shipped with Ubuntu 20.04. Moreover, the way (and also by the ways of external documentations in the community) of installation proposed by "Vimba Installation Documentation" (here) is no longer reproducible.
• If I can use Vimba X (from here) in the place of Vimba 6.1 (ARM64) as it works with Qt5 (instead of Qt4; and Qt5 is installable in Ubuntu 20.04), that would resolve this problem. However, I read that the API of the libVimbaC.so provided by Vimba X (if provided by Vimba X) is not compatible with the one provided by VimbaC.

Request:

• Would it be possible that you can add a Dockerfile that supports Ubuntu 20.04 to build the vimbasrc shared library?
• Or, do you have any suggestion to install Qt4 properly in Ubuntu 20.04?
• Or, any other suggestion to be able to build/use the shared library in Ubuntu 20.04?

High-Level Scenario:

• We want to use DeepStream Version 6.1.1 (in a docker container) on an NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin device (See here for os/platform compatibility). We have an alliedvision camera.

Thanks in advance.

Hello, the Qt dependency is only for the examples that uses Qt. Otherwise, the API does not need Qt. The good news is that you can use Qt5 to compile most of Vimba-Qt-examples,. The only Vimba example that could be more challenging to upgrade to Qt5 is the VimbaViewer.

Hello Bernardo, Thank you for the information. I will give a try then.
