Deploying or installing Qt Assistant
-
If I am to use Qt Assistant for help, the user has to have Assistant installed.
How should I go about either
-
adding the executable or .app file to my deployment image, or
-
install Assistant by other means as a pre-requisite.
A Visual Studio/Qt VS Tools build doesn't appear to offer this as an option, and I can't see how I should add it if I'm using CMake to build the Linux and macOS versions?
Thanks

Hi,
I think this example should be of interest.

Maybe I'm getting stupid (or blind) in my old age, but I can't see where this tells me how to add the actual Qt Assistant executable to the stuff that I'm going to ship.

I thought I saw it.
You have to copy it your application bundle.
The example shows how to invoke it from there. -
You mean manually copy assistant .exe from the Qt install dir to the application build directory and then qt deploy - surely there must be a more formal method than that
