How to make standalone app?

AmrCoder

Hello
iam trying to make a standalone release to my app to not use those all DLL file in the app folder
i make many searches I followed many steps but no result I always ended up with errors and something like that which make me upset. I tried to follow this blog here in the steps to make standalone app from qt so the first step to make qt static release from qt source I go to my this path

C:\Qt\5.5\Src\qtbase\mkspecs\win32-g++\

write these in the qmake.cong

QMAKE_LFLAGS += -static -static-libgcc
QMAKE_CFLAGS_RELEASE -= -O2
QMAKE_CFLAGS_RELEASE += -Os -momit-leaf-frame-pointer
DEFINES += QT_STATIC_BUILD

then I opened Open a Qt environment command prompt go to source file run this

configure -static -platform win32-g++ -prefix "C:\Qt\Qt5_static" -debug-and-release -opensource -confirm-license -nomake examples -nomake tests -nomake tools -opengl desktop -no-angle -qt-sql-sqlite -make libs -qt-zlib -qt-pcre -qt-libpng -qt-libjpeg -qt-freetype

and here is the problem which i stuck i got this error at the end of using above command

Info: creating super cache file C:\Qt\Qt5.10.0\5.10.0\Src\.qmake.super
ERROR: Invalid value given for boolean command line option 'sql-sqlite'.

then i ignored them i use the next step which is this command to finally get the qt static and got this error under each command i used

mingw32-make -k -j4
mingw32-make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

mingw32-make -k install
mingw32-make: *** No rule to make target 'install'.

tried to remake this step again of using the first long command i got this two errors

Bootstrapping qmake ...
mingw32-make: Nothing to be done for 'first'.
ERROR: Invalid value given for boolean command line option 'sql-sqlite'.

so what should i do now to solve this errors
Thanks in advance

-qt-sql-sqlite

what I tried now is to remove this from the first command

-qt-sql-sqlite

and finally it worked but I have a question here is that make a problem to my static release I tested it to release use static version it worked fine but it will make a problem if I use for example SQLite database or make any kind of problems later?

You only need this if you plan to use SQLite

@jsulm I created a small app to add values to a simple SQLite table and release it and it worked fine!
