    Ubuntu 18.04
    QT 5.12.10

    I wrote the ubuntu version and qt version above. I was working on a project for a long time. I'm done with the project now. I want to make it executable on other computers. but when I start the project, no executable file is created in the project directory. I don't know how and what to do. I couldn't find anything after searching the internet.

    can help me how to do it?

      @KARMA said in executable file is not created when project is started:

      no executable file is created in the project directory

      Executable is usually created in a build folder, NOT project folder!
      It looks like your build folder is also source code folder, which is a very bad practise!
      How exactly do you build?
      Isn't readAndParseTesting the executable of your project?

        As you wrote, I realized that the readAndParseTesting file is an executable file. I opened the terminal and typed "./readAndParseTesting" and the program ran.
        My question now is this. What should I do to turn this file into a ready-to-run .exe on windows?

          You need to build your project on Windows...
