[SOLVED]Embedding images in exe file

[b1gsnak3]

Hello!

I was wondering if it is possible to embed files (like icons, images, etc) in the exe file? I know you can use the NetworkAccessManager to download these files, but I need a non-internet required solution. Also I don't want to save them in the application folder to use as resource files because I don't want the user to modify the icons like he wants.

Thank you in advance.

Hi!
Why don't use resource files?

QRC resources are compiled into the binary, they don't need to be stored in the application folder.

Thank you. I did not know that :)

But if your question is how to create resource files, then then here is the steps:
File->New File or Project->files and classes:Qt->Qt Resource file
then you can add any files into this resource file and it will be compiled into binary file.
