What is "target.path = $$[QT_INSTALL_EXAMPLES]/widgets/mainwindows/mdi" in .pro

[harveyab]

Why are these last three lines in my project .pro file:

# install
target.path = $$[QT_INSTALL_EXAMPLES]/widgets/mainwindows/mdi
INSTALLS += target

The project started from the mdi example, and I copied it to my own directory.
Can I (Should I) simply delete these three lines (or comment then out)?
Do they do anything?
Should target.path or INSTALLS be set to something else?
Thanks

Hi,

These lines is for telling the build system where to install these when calling make install after a build.

@SGaist So after I copy an example to my own location, I should edit these? or delete them?
I don't want any connection to the original location of the example. Right?

If you don't plan to call make install then you can just ignore them
