QSplashscreen on windows XP

Tom C

Hi !

I built an app on windows 7. The app works on windows 7. However when I try to run the app on another computer with windows XP the splashscreen doesn't work but the app still works.

Any idea to make the splashscreen work on XP ?

Hi,

What are you using as a splash screen ?

I'm using a .jpg file embedded in the resource system.

main body :
@
QApplication a(argc, argv);
a.setWindowIcon(QIcon(":/t.png"));

QSplashScreen splash(QPixmap(":/splash.jpg"));
splash.show();

MainWindow w;
w.show();

splash.finish(&w);

What version of Qt are you using ?

It seems you are missing this
@app.processEvents();@

after showing your splash screen

Is this could explain why the splash screen works only on win 7 ?

I'm using Qt 5.1.1 VS 2010

The documentation didn't change so you might just be lucky to get the splash screen on Win7.

Add the missing line and you'll see if it behaves better
