    Dev-Cpp 5.11

    Oh god, please no! Use a proper IDE. Qt Creator is already there for you

    I can not write http downloader

    You can use libcurl. it's in C but it's only 300KB

    P.S.
    You are probably going off topic here give this is a Qt forum

    Yes there is Qt but in this particular case only .exe need and very small.

    And where to use Libcurl, tell me the language of programming where I use Libcurl and then I will only have .exe 300KB.
    Please teach me :))

    Do what you want.

      I guess it's a bit like my love of escargot.

      There is no relation between what IDE you use and the complied output

      And where to use Libcurl, tell me the language of programming where I use Libcurl and then I will only have .exe 300KB

      Almost all C++ compilers can compile and link to C code. Just follow the tutorial

        Just a note

        Did you try
        https://upx.github.io/

        alt text

        Its the charactermap sample static compiled. and then compressed.

        Its fully transparent for the user and very fast decompressor.

          @mrjj That is sort of 7zip for .exes if the problem is space on the target device that will not solve very much as the program will be decompressed before it's started.

          It works really well, however, if your problem is transferring the file around

            @VRonin

            Well it decompresses to memory so unless its a size memory issue (on target), it should not matter.

            But of course it wont be as lovely small as curl + pugixml :)

                  UPX only decompresses .exe?
                  UPX can not just make it from my files only .exe ?

                  Do what you want.

                    yes it reduce size of exe.

                    its not installer.

                    you must produce single exe then compress it.

                      Thank @mrjj very much.
                      If I made my project on Qt and I would make it static build And .Exe will be a maximum of 15 megabytes, UPX will bring it down 15 -
                      min(15 * 50 / 100, 15 * 70 / 100), This is a lot for me.
                      I would be happy with only about 500 kilobytes :(.
                      Let's take the name of everyone skype installer. Where can it be written?
                      Excuse me to get my problems out of Qt. I did not want a flood this topic.

                      Do what you want.

                        @Taz742 From the beginning of this thread it has been unclear to me what you actually want to do. For example, if you want to have a simple Windows-only application with a graphical user interface which does only one simple thing and whose size goes under 5MB, Qt isn't a good solution for you. See https://blog.qt.io/blog/2017/05/31/qt-lite-qt-5-9-lts/ for size comparison and you can see that under 5MB is so-and so with the Lite system, but under 1MB is unrealistic. The very small applications you see on Windows use some lighweight libraries or maybe only Microsoft's own Windows APIs. The reason they are small is because Windows has many libraries installed by default, not because Qt is bloated. If just under 5MB is acceptable, you can try e.g. wxWidgets, see https://wiki.wxwidgets.org/Reducing_Executable_Size. If you have a command line application without windows and widgets you shouldn't be using Qt in this case at all.

                          I have no idea what this shows.
                          Normally upx compress it to 1/3 of size.

                            @Taz742 About the Qt Lite I would say that it's too much hassle for just one small Windows application (with the caveat that I haven't actually tried it). Without the commercial licence you have to manually edit hundreds of things and then compile Qt. With a commercial licence comes a GUI configuration tool.

                              In order to get what I needed to write the WIN API application in Dev C ++.
                              He did not request other and other platforms .dll and other files. (Only .exe).

                              Only this code can only be achieved with the following picture:
                              alt text

                              Now I can not create http file downloader.

                              Do what you want.

                                He did not request other and other platforms .dll and other files. (Only .exe).

                                Only this code can only be achieved with the following picture:
                                alt text

                                Now I can not create http file downloader.

                                @Taz742 "Now I can not create http file downloader" - why not? You don't have http networking features available? Use for example libcurl, it was already mentioned. But this has nothing to do with Qt so you will get better help somewhere else.

                                  Because libcurl can not be installed for Dev.
                                  When I used to use the visual studio and transferred my project to visual studios that I had written on Dev. He asked .dll another computer to connect to the program.

                                  Do what you want.

                                    Did you try to build libcurl with your compiler?
