    Hi Guys...

    I'm trying to make the deploy of my application in OS X. My application is a qtwidget application.

    The problem is when i run otool over the executable file. Let me explain my self:

    I had develop the backend as a QtLubrary project. I have 7 different libraries developed like that. My qtwidget application link against this libraries, and until this point there is not a problem. When I run the application from qtcreator, my application run veru well, but if make double click in finder, the application said that it can't find the libraries of my back which eachone is defined in my .pro file.

    After that, I run otool -L command over the executable and I found that in the list of libraries to link each of my libraries of my backend has not a a full path like each Qt library has.

    so, when I run the https://github.com/dshav/qtappmacdeploy: to make the deploy of my app over OS X, it can't find my backend libraries and for that, my app does not run in other mac.And the same problem when I try to make double clic over the executable from finder.

    Someone has this problem??? i don't know if I need to give more info...sorry if didn't do...if I must post more info, please, just ask about...

    best regards

      Hi,

      Before that, did you try to just run macdeployqt ?

      How does your project look like ? A subdir template ?

        Hi SGaist and thank for you answer

        Yes, I'm trying to run qtappmacdeploy and it make the deploy, but he doesn't put my backend libraries inside...

        my project look like this:

        the backend project is where I have all my libraries and its .pro file is like this:

        @TEMPLATE = subdirs

        CONFIG += ordered

        SUBDIRS +=
        common
        system_manager
        task_manager
        communication_manager
        forms_manager \
        formula_manager
        queries_manager
        rules_manager
        db_manager
        security_manager
        periods_manager
        reports_manager
        procedure_manager
        anclan_server @

        after that and in another external project, I have my qtwidget project where I link against someone of this libraries:

        I had added each library using right click over my project.

        Well, the problem is that I can run the application from QtCreator, but not executing it from finder. To make that, I had to copy my backend libraries in /usr/local/lib and that what I don't wanna do.

          as you can see, the first 5th libraries look like if they are in the same directory of the executable, and I think (is my opinion because I'm not sure) that for that reason, when I try to run the application from the Finder I got an error, because this libraries are not in the directory where the executable is...

          for that, qtappmacdeploy can't find it and can't make the deploy of each library... that is may problem

          regards

          PD: Sorry for send 2 messages, to large in only one

            Not qtappmacdeploy, but macdeployqt which is bundled with Qt.

                You should call it on a "non-deployed" app so delete your app, rebuild it and then run macdeployqt

                    Wait… Do you have several versions of Qt installed ?

                      Hi SGaist

                      I have only Qt5.4 installed on /Application/ folder...

                      The other thing which I could try is make a pkg file and put my libraries in /usr/local/lib but I have to go to search in google how can I do this... but I think that make a good bundle folder is the better solution, for that reason I'm asking...

                      another advise ??

                      best regards

                        A simple application should not install anything especially in /usr/local/

                        You should run macdeployqt with verbose activated to see exactly what is happening with your application.

                        By the way, do you really need that much libraries ?
