Third Party tool for deploy Qt Application on Mac?

[vishal.chauhan]

Hi All,

I m working on qt 4.2.2 on Mac.
I have an application developed in qt and I want to deploy this on a Mac system which doesnot have Qt Installed.
I have tried the method by static linking but then I donot have the Image Support then I tried by using Bundle of application but nothing goes my way.

Now I want to ask Is there any third party tool available that takes the needed library at the time of creating bundle and the install the neeed lib to there respective position.


If any body knows then plzzz help me out.

Thanks.

Super!.. and how paste plugin qt-tif from 4.3 beta in to bundle?

install_name_tool can not activate plugin inside the bundle why?

I append on main all path ... && supported image format dont have tif.... only png :mad:


# on main.cpp
#if defined Q_WS_MAC
QStringList path;
path.append(QApplication::applicationDirPath());
QDir dir(QApplication::applicationDirPath());
dir.cdUp();
path.append(dir.absolutePath());
dir.cd("plugins");
path.append(dir.absolutePath());
dir.cdUp();
path.append(dir.absolutePath());
QApplication::setLibraryPaths(path);
QDir::setCurrent(dir.absolutePath()); /* here down -> Frameworks */
#endif

I don't know. I don't use plugins much, and so I haven't run into this problem yet. I'll need to update my script for plugins one of these days.
