Hi All,
I am using Qt SDK 5.0.2 and I have a little console project that running nicely within the Qt Creator environment. But now I want to take the compiled .exe file and run it on another PC.
I have been reading as many “how to deploy your app” in the forums/web as I can but have not found quite what I need to know to get going.
Mostly people are saying you need to add your .dll files into your project. So at the moment I am trying to achieve this by running my QT project via the .exe file that it produces (i.e. in standalone mode).
When I run my .exe it complains that it cant fine QtCored.dll. So I add this to the folder where my .exe is and that warning goes away, and I get warned about the next missing .dll.
My question is, how are people adding these .dlls to their projects? Do we just do as I have done and manually copy them into the output folder, or do we include then in our projects somehow?
I have a copy of dependency walker which helps me to find the .dlls that I need to find.
One further/relevant question: What does the “build —> deploy project” menu option to in Qt Creator? – mine is grey’ed out so I can’t use it.
Thanks for any help.
