Build project including all libs

[SGaist]

Hi,

What do you mean by include all lib and files ?

[filipdns]

I would like to have next my exe all is need to run it when I copy the folder and past it to an other PC Under windows

[SGaist]

That's what windeployqt is for.

[filipdns]

I start to read it, and I think it's not easy to do... I will try

You can add this to your pro file to run it automatically

@VRonin Great thanks it's a begining lol

Could you explain me litle bit more how to use that?

DLLDESTDIR = ../../myproject/bin (... some dir's struct ...)

QMAKE_POST_LINK = windeployqt --compiler-runtime $$DLLDESTDIR

DLLDESTDIR -- full path with file name TARGET (dll and exe).

I don't really see what I have to complete or replace in that..

Sorry I'm litle bit stupid lol

You chose the only answer with negative votes, I was referring to:

isEmpty(TARGET_EXT) {
    win32 {
        TARGET_CUSTOM_EXT = .exe
    }
    macx {
        TARGET_CUSTOM_EXT = .app
    }
} else {
    TARGET_CUSTOM_EXT = $${TARGET_EXT}
}

win32 {
    DEPLOY_COMMAND = windeployqt
}
macx {
    DEPLOY_COMMAND = macdeployqt
}

CONFIG( debug, debug|release ) {
    # debug
    DEPLOY_TARGET = $$shell_quote($$shell_path($${OUT_PWD}/debug/$${TARGET}$${TARGET_CUSTOM_EXT}))
} else {
    # release
    DEPLOY_TARGET = $$shell_quote($$shell_path($${OUT_PWD}/release/$${TARGET}$${TARGET_CUSTOM_EXT}))
}

#  # Uncomment the following line to help debug the deploy command when running qmake
#  warning($${DEPLOY_COMMAND} $${DEPLOY_TARGET})

# Use += instead of = if you use multiple QMAKE_POST_LINKs
QMAKE_POST_LINK = $${DEPLOY_COMMAND} $${DEPLOY_TARGET}

oups sorry

@VRonin Hello, I try that but now the exe is missing and I can not run the project from qt creator, I got modules missing message (all modules imported in my project) I received message module not installed when I try to run

[VRonin]

That has nothing to do with the snipped I posted. Could you show us your entire .pro file? Did you rmember to build->re-run qmake?

[filipdns]

@VRonin here my original pro file:

TEMPLATE = app

QT += qml quick widgets
CONFIG += c++11

HEADERS += \
radialbar.h

SOURCES += main.cpp\
radialbar.cpp

RESOURCES += qml.qrc \
    ../shared/shared.qrc

# Additional import path used to resolve QML modules in Qt Creator's code model
QML_IMPORT_PATH =

# Additional import path used to resolve QML modules just for Qt Quick Designer
QML_DESIGNER_IMPORT_PATH =

# The following define makes your compiler emit warnings if you use
# any feature of Qt which as been marked deprecated (the exact warnings
# depend on your compiler). Please consult the documentation of the
# deprecated API in order to know how to port your code away from it.
DEFINES += QT_DEPRECATED_WARNINGS

# You can also make your code fail to compile if you use deprecated APIs.
# In order to do so, uncomment the following line.
# You can also select to disable deprecated APIs only up to a certain version of Qt.
#DEFINES += QT_DISABLE_DEPRECATED_BEFORE=0x060000    # disables all the APIs deprecated before Qt 6.0.0


# Default rules for deployment.
qnx: target.path = /tmp/$${TARGET}/bin
else: unix:!android: target.path = /opt/$${TARGET}/bin
!isEmpty(target.path): INSTALLS += target

What do you mean with Did you rmember to build->re-run qmake?

Thank very much again for your help!!

You need to rerun qmake each time you change pro file. Go to "Build/Run qmake" menu.

1. Using both widgets and quick modules is a bit unusual
2. there is no trace of the snipped posted above in this file, where did you put it?

[filipdns]

@VRonin I don't know, I start my project with QT exemple I didn't change more than the radialbar cpp and h

I'm new on QT I probably made some mistakes ;-)
