(e.g.)Name: yocto-1.6.2

Path: Path :/opt/poky/1.6.2/sysroots/x86-64-pokysdk-linux/usr/bin/arm-pocky-linux-quneabi-g++

#####	Build & Run -> Debugger -> Add

(e.g.) Name: debugger-yocto1.6.2

Source Path: Miruki/opt/poky/1.6.2/sysroots/x86-64-pockysdk-linux/usr/bin/arm-pocky-linux-gnuaebi/arm-pocky-linux-gnuaebi-gdb

#####	Build & Run -> Qt version -> Add…
Add → GCC

(e.g.)Name: Qt-yocto-2.0.5.5.1(qt5)
Path: /opt/poky/1.6.2/sysroots/x86_64-pokysdk-linux/usr/bin/qt5/qmake

#####	Build & Run -> Kits -> Add

Add → GCC

(e.g.)Name: yocto-1.6.2-kit  
Device type: Generic Linux Device  
Sysroots: /opt/poky/1.6.2/sysroots/cortexta9hf-vfp-neon-poky- linux-gnueabi  
Compiler : GCC-yocto1.6.2  
Debugger : debugger-yocto1.6.2  
Qt version :Qt 5.2.1 (qt5)

#### Init yocto environment

Close Qt Creator which is opened in the last step

$ cd /opt/poky/1.6.2      
/* change to yocto sdk directory */

$ source /opt/poky/1.6.2/environment-setup-cortexta9hf-vfp-neon-poky-                  linux-gnueabi
/* run yocto sdk environment script by this command: */

$ ~/qtcreator-3.4.2/bin/qtcreator.sh
/* run Qt creator again */

After these actions, you can build Qt application in our yocto system.
