How to execute program which have created Qt on windows?

Question

Hi.

Basically, Qt provide the cross-plateform.

I have made a application which is used Qt creator on Linux.

But, I can't be running that on Windows because it can't find .dll files such as mingw10.dll and qtcore4.dll, etc.

So, I have copied the .dll files which can be found in qt/bin directory.

And, I create a directory in order to save that like /lib becuase of distribution of application.

But, I can't set up path in .pro file.

How to set up the path for .dll?

Thank you.

Answer 1

You say you've successfully compiled the app, so the only problem is that it can't find the DLLs.

There are a few solutions, and they have nothing to do with the .pro file. Your two best bets are:

• Make sure the DLLs are in the same directory as the .exe file
• Make sure the DLLs are in a directory contained in the PATH environment variable

Answer 2

You can too compile QT statically in order to not have to link dlls to your exe : http://doc.trolltech.com/4.1/deployment-windows.html#building-qt-statically.
