No icons when deploy application using SVG files

goetz

You have wrong paths:

QSvg4.dll goes into INSTALL
the plugins must go into a subdir of plugins with the same name they came from (qsvgicon4.dll goes to INSTALL/plugins/iconengines/; qsqlite4.dll goes to INSTALL/plugins/sqldrivers and so on)

That helped... thx.
But i had another problem... i've added your code before create the application... so the path wasn't set correct.

Thx for help

goetz

You should add the code in the main() function, after the creation of QApplication but before doing the GUI stuff.

torsten

yes... i did... but not in the first time ;-)

This looks like exactly the problem i am having... it is very irritating that it works fine in debug on dev machines, and only breaks on user machines...

Thanks Volker, i will try it tonight.

goetz

Sorry, that's not irritating, but just plain normal.

On you dev machines you have everything in place, so the parts needed are found. On the user machines you have to install every single piece yourself, if only one is missing, your applications or parts of it can break.

Volker, it seems a similar problem I had using jpg against png images. But in my case I set properly all the dll and the problem remain unsolved... Is it possible that the same principle can be applied also in my case?

Yes, of course. It does not depend if your dealing with svg or png or jpg (despite the fact that you might have different "cross dependencies":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/Qt_library_cross_dependencies

Mmmh... Strange that my previous post about this you missed.
If you have five minutes, please take a look to the link: http://developer.qt.nokia.com/forums/viewthread/4028/ This was my first post, but the moderator moved this to the area related to deployment and installations... Then I find a solution (not a final solution, but a solution for this particular case) here:

But this post is actually without answer...

Thks.

I merged both threads as it's on the very same topic. You've been pointed to some reading - not clear if you read (and and understood) these already.
