Qt5 platforms plugins ?
-
[quote author="JKSH" date="1358040589"]Very strange. Some questions:
I presume it says Failed to load platform plugin "windows"., and not another plugin; is that correct?
What's your OS? What many bits?
Did you download the precompiled Qt 5.0.0, or build it yourself?
Is Qt 5 in your PATH?
Did you copy the other DLLs (e.g. Qt5Core.dll) into your application folder?[/quote]
Yes you are right. But it says that plugins are available... I really dont understand what is going on...
- Windows 7 Professional x64 bit.
- I have been using both of them but not at once.
- Qt is not in my environment
- Yes, I did.

I'm quite lost here, to be honest. :-/
Try running your program from within CDB -- it will show you a list of DLLs that are being loaded, and it just might provide a clue.

Well, I have found solution in copying also libEGL.dll or libEGLd.dll (depends on what type of building do you run!) into the root application library...what a freaking mistake!

Wow! Mine worked too! Thanks

Solved it for me as well.

Just wanted to say I had this issue as well. Solve for me. Found through google so I figured I'd bump it.

Adding libEGL.dll worked for me too. Was long for me to find the solution so I figured I'd bump it too.

I was getting that exact same "failed to load" error, however, I didn't compile my own binaries - I used the ones from the softwareforge project qt-x64 : http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtx64/ .
It turns out that they bundle a utility in there called qtbinpatcher.exe that patches the binaries where the paths have been hardcoded in. Once I ran that everything worked.
Is it just me, or does hardcoding an absolute path into the binaries like that seem like horrible idea? What were they thinking?

Anyway, welcome to the Qt Dev Net! I'm glad you found a solution to your problem. Thank you for sharing your solution.
