Thanks.

Hi,
I hope that you are aware that USB OTG is not supported, so you cannot
attach USB serial devices to Jolla? Or are you building yourself a
custom TOH with USB host support and plan to use i2c serial ports? In
that case you can just compile QtSerialPort code yourself (I've tested
that it compiles just fine inside the SDK) and bundle that inside your
application.
Don know about OTG, but my Linux systems always attach a Generic Serial
Driver to the devices.
Why is Sailfish acting differently?
You might want to consider BT devices and using RFCOMM over that as
that would be much simpler approach.
No go in a cockpit. Wires are far more reliable, and BT not allowed due
to risc of interference with RT/transponder etc. equipment.
br, Jonni

No, is available inside Qt, not necessarily provided for Sailfish.
I thought Sailfish would include all modules of Qt....
Have to recheck the errors, but it looked like the libs and headers
were
not there (QtSerialPort/QtSerialPort no such file).
I already told you that you might consider copying the module to your
application and bundle it. Or see if Qt Serial port is packaged for
mer, and
ask for inclusion (or package if is not). Any Qt addon is a safe bet
since qt-
project has some serious commitment to ABI/API stability.
I did this on the notebook Qt<5.1 versions of my app. (even a
boost-serial version before QSerial)
But doing this with Sailfish is far more complex:
it has to be available on the Mer VM and the Sailfish VM (and later
Sailfish device).
I am not experienced with VMs. The nice thing about using Qt is not
having to worry about the implementation (and updates) of the modules.
(The Sailfish (Target) manager is also not able to find the serialport
module).
I need all the time for porting to Sailfish, esp. C++GUI2Qml ;-(
So, support for this module is a must for my app.
Or just explain what serial port you want to use and for what reason,
so
Sailors see the need to do the work themselves... and satisfy my
curiosity.

aircraft navigation+more app:
USB/serial device1:
-external GPS
USB/serial device2:
-air press sensor (altitude)
-humidity sensor
-temp sensor
No rocket science, works flawless on ubuntu notebook.
