How static link ?

[AndrzejB]

Hi, I am new Qt user. My first application has 28 KB but it needs 5 DLL with 18 megabytes. It is possible to link only used functions to exe? I prefer 10 MB exe than 18 MB DLLs.

Hi and welcome
yes it's possible to build a static version of the Qt and avoid the Dlls. However,you
must then open souce your project or buy a license so that is something to consider.
That said, it involves some steps
