Yes, that's what qt.conf is for :-) > This old > "Qt doesn't know about SDK vs deployment location", as said Lincoln, is a > real pain on Windows.

The "build twice" advice simply doesn't work. I really don't get what you or Lincoln are talking about. I don't see why building twice is necessary. Just deploy the DLLs that you compiled your application with, alongside a qt.conf file. If you want to avoid a qt.conf file, create an installation procedure that changes the hardcoded paths in the QtCore DLL. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center
