Adding an icon?

[SPlatten]

Is there an easy way to embedded and add an icon to an Qt application?

[VRonin]

Define icon. Where will it be displayed?
What build system? CMake or qmake?

@VRonin , sorry I should have been more specific...I'm referring to a default desktop icon for the application that is embedded in the executable.

With IDE's like MSVC this is quite straight forward.

@SPlatten Will this help? https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/appicon.html

I, for Windows and using qmake, simply add RC_ICONS=path_to_icon_file.ico in the .pro file and it just works.

EDIT: for embedding icon in .exe please see the link.

@artwaw , thank you.

@artwaw, just added the RC_ICONS to the pro file, it doesn't change colour when entered like the other labels...will try anyway.

@artwaw It works :)
