Folder to compile & build exe [SOLVED]
-
I keep my project file on a usb disk, and install Qt on whatever computer I am using. My problem is that it runs in Qt, but I can't find where the executable is hiding. I'm not having trouble with DLL's at all, just trying to set the directory for the exe file. Thanks for any help!

What do you mean with install Qt?
Just installing the Qt ddls or the whole development environment?
-
I install a fresh dev environment, and then use it to compile the project on the flash drive.

Probably you cannot work with a shadow build because your usb drive will be on different locations.
If you have a shadow build folder, there should be in general the exe in your release or debug folder.
You can redirect the executable to other folder by using "DESTDIR":http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmake-variable-reference.html#destdir in your .pro file.

Also, it is best to delete the *.pro.user file before you load the project in a different computer. That file contains machine-specific settings.
