configure -static -opengl desktop -nomake examples -nomake tests

Output:

Now I am building of Qt on my old computer with XP. It was configured successfully.

8Observer8

It was building on my old computer with XP successfully! It took 1 or 1.5 hour.

Please say me. Should I run this command: mingw32-make install

8Observer8

I compiled a simple project. But it was not build statically.

8Observer8

I ran this: mingw32-make install

It is installing now. But I see:

bq. can not be copied on top of itself

8Observer8

bq. xcopy /s /q /y /i C:\Qt\Qt5.1.1\5.1.1\Src\qtbase\doc\global C:\Qt\Qt5.1.1\5.1.1
Src\qtbase\doc\global

8Observer8

I created the new folder with name C:/Qt5.1.1_static

And copied to it the content of the folder C:\Qt\Qt5.1.1_static\5.1.1\Src\qtbase

I ran this: cd C:/Qt5.1.1_static

And this: configure -static -opengl desktop -nomake examples -nomake tests

And I ran this: mingw32-make

And this: mingw32-make install

I open QtCreator -> and selected qmake.exe from C:/Qt5.1.1_static

I created a simple Dialog Project (Release)

But my Application-exe require the libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll

Why? I want to ran my Application on another computer. Please help me! What should I do?

8Observer8

This is right for installing:

configure -static -prefix "C:/Qt/Qt5.1.1_static" -opengl desktop -nomake examples -nomake tests

But my Application-exe require the libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll How to build all dll's to one exe-file?

8Observer8

Need I to change mkspecs file?

Thank you for reply. I am helped here: http://www.prog.org.ru/topic_26164_0.html

My "Step by Step" instruction how to build applications without libstdc++-6.dll, libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll, Qt5Core.dll, Qt5Gui.dll and so on.

Tools:

Version of Qt: Qt 5.2.0 for Windows 32-bit (MinGW 4.8, OpenGL, 689 MB)

OS: Window 7

download and install Qt 5.2.0 for Windows 32-bit (MinGW 4.8, OpenGL, 689 MB) (check Source Components) from here http://qt-project.org/downloads
move to C:\Qt\Qt5.2.0\5.2.0\Src\qtbase\mkspecs\win32-g++ and open qmake.conf
find QMAKE_LFLAGS in qmake.conf and rewrite it:

QMAKE_LFLAGS = -static -static-libgcc

open console Start -> All Programs -> Qt 5.2.0 -> 5.2.0 -> MinGW 4.8 (32-bit) -> Qt 5.2.0 for Desktop (MinGW 4.8 32 bit)

cd c:\Qt\Qt5.2.0\5.2.0\Src\qtbase

configure -static -prefix "C:\Qt\Qt5.2.0_static" -opengl desktop -nomake examples -nomake tests

mingw32-make
