Installation and Deployment

Run it on the binary of your application.

@SimonSchroeder @jsulm Thank you all! I built the project in macOS 13.4 and set CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET to 11.0, and the problem was resolved. Although I am not yet sure what the specific reason for this issue is, it does not seem to be a problem with the QT library, as I am confident that there is only one version (latest version) of the library on my computer. Perhaps when double clicking on the app folder, macOS made some judgment action

Okay. If I understand correctly: That plugin is available though the svg module So it is useful to link against the Qt::Svg module. On Linux and FreeBSD, this will force the distribution’s package manager to add Qt::Svg as dependency, and the Qt::Svg package which will very likely at the same time provide QSvgIconEngine. On Windows, there is no package management. However, it will do no harm to link against Qt::Svg, as the Qt::Svg module has to be deployed anyway to provide QSvgIconEngine. so you have to deploy it along your application. wrap the plugin with your app like a so file and set the path properly as plugin I do not provide binaries. Currently, I document the build-time dependencies. So here the point would be to document QSvgIconEngine as an additional run-time dependency for deployment.

@SteveStage I've been struggling on and off with this for years. I currently have a couple open bug reports on this topic, so TQC at least is aware of the problem(s). I don't have an answer for you, but a couple things: don't use git bash for your build. A command terminal is best, but PowerShell should work, too. when you initialize the repository (prior to your configure command), disable qtwebengine: perl init-repository --module-subset=default,-qtwebengine This will speed up your builds, plus you can't build QtWebEngine statically (probably because it would result in enormous executables). this is the command that most recently worked for me, though it doesn't now: configure.bat -opensource -confirm-license -static -static-runtime -release -platform win32-g++ -opengl desktop -skip qtwebengine -nomake examples -nomake tests -Wno-dev -prefix c:\qt\6.5.1_static Good luck...

To deploy your Qt-based application on Android devices using Qt Creator on a MacBook host, you can follow these general steps: Set up Android SDK and NDK: Install the Android SDK (Software Development Kit) and NDK (Native Development Kit) on your MacBook. You can download them from the official Android Developer website. Configure Qt Creator: Open Qt Creator and go to Preferences (Qt Creator -> Preferences). Under Devices > Android, add the paths to your Android SDK and NDK installations. Make sure the necessary Android versions and tools are installed via the SDK Maintenance tool in Qt Creator. Create a Deployment Kit: In Qt Creator, go to Projects (left sidebar) and select your project. Under the Build Settings tab, select Add Kit and choose Android as the type. Provide a name for the kit and select the Android device you want to deploy to.

@sierdzio You are absolutely right, thank you. I didn't know about the nmake install command :)

Thanks for the information. I did not realize that all dependencies are build into the application on static builds and therefore the deploy-script is not needed anymore. I got the script to run with my normal (dynamically linked) version of Qt and now I get my deployable this way. Thanks again for the help.

I don't have a specific one to give you. There is a list here pick one that is close to you.

@beautifulcloud said in Which version of QT Creator to install for using MinGW 4.9.1: @JonB As I said, my program was written with this version and cannot support newer versions, I need that MinGW 4.9.1 version to implement it into QT :) I think you made the wise decision!

@JoeCFD thanks that's good to know. The qgis nightly builds are using 22.04 so I copied that https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/659a1366927bbefa64c95f982427f2a21e9be4d8/.docker/qgis3-qt5-build-deps.dockerfile#L2

It's the same with me...

@jobor Actually I have installed the older version of QT 5.15.6 on my old laptop and now I received a new laptop and I trying to install the newer version which is QT 5.15.12. my colleague also faced the same problem but he deleted the cahce files and it worked for him but in my case it is not working even if I deleted the cahce files.
