Move qt folder
-
Hi,
I build Qt5 succsessfully from opensource src and already combinded it with my application. I added a 3rdParty/Qt Folder in my application and added include, lib and bin from the qtbase folder of my build directory. I work with VS 2012 and added includes, bin and libs to my project. Furthermore, I copied all needed dlls to the output dir and my application runs fine.
Unfortunatly, when I delete the folder, in which I initially build qt from, my application doesn't start anymore, because it says
"Failed to load platform plugin "windows". Available platforms are: "I tried around and found out, that the crutial point is the deletion of the plugins folder in the qtbase folder. I tried to move it into different places in my application, but that doesn't solve the problem.
Any ideas, where to start?
Kind regards,

You need to copy qwindows.dll to <your app bin path>/plugins/platforms or similar (might be platforms/plugins, I always get confused about that ;)).

Hi,
that worked, but the folder is <your app bin path>/platforms, if someone gets similar problems.
Thank you
