No, the .qrc raw content.

From there it looks all good.

Just for the sake of debugging, you should check the install and remove calls since they return a Boolean.

@SGaist I checked them and they are working fine but after deployment they don't unless I add .qm file to the directory.

Did you try to list the content of the .qrc file using QDir at run time just to ensure you have everything in place ?

I feel you missed the second argument for the load function which is the directory path, where as first is the filename.

translatorPt.load(":/Languages/transl_portuguese.qm"))

If directory is not specified, the current directory is used (i.e., as currentPath()).
So in deployment it will search for current path for the .qm file.

I will do that and get back to you

@nagesh but I am loading from resource file, it shouldn't care for the directory of the .qm file in the deployment since the resource files are supposed to be compiled into the .exe file

I did, everything seems to fine.

I don't know where I can possibly be doing something wrong. I created another topic dedicated to this problem as this one contains answer that solves the op.

@hbatalha
what @nagesh meant is:

translatorPt.load("transl_portuguese.qm", ":/Languages/"))

file path is now your qrc system and not currentPath

I have found out what was the problem. For some reason I don't know every time I build the application Qt Creator will create the binary in the debug folder even though I have it set to release.

None of the changes I was making was actually taking effect since I was always checking .exe file from the release which was remaining unchanged the whole time.

So I took the .exe from the debug folder and deployed it and all is working fine. Now I have to check what might me going when building my app cause the .exe is pretty big and I am not sure if is the release or the debug(it is in the debug folder, but I built it with release build set).

I thank you all for the time and patience. I really appreciated it.
