Setting icon for QtConsoleApplication

[A Former User]

How does one set an icon for a QtConsoleApplication? I tried setWindowIcon but it doesn't seem to work as it's not a QMainWindow but a QApplication.

Thank you!

Hi
You can try this
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/appicon.html
I have never tried with QtConsoleApplication so I cant promise it works.

Hi,

You have to create that file yourself.

@SGaist and how would I tell the compiler to look at that file?

Did you read the link ?

"Then, add this line to your myapp.pro file:
RC_FILE = myapp.rc"
