Hi All,

I am using Qt 4.2.2 on my Intel Mac.
I have an application which is running on mac.
I want to use an apple provided sample of MoreAuthSample with my application for which I have to install a helper tool with in the application bundle.

And my question was in what way is your question connected to Qt?

And is your question about designing/coding or about distributing?

My qestion is about distributing.
I just want to ask that with qt is it possible to create an tool within application bundle in MAC OS.

yes of course it is possible!
Look at QWizard and QProcess.

You mean you want your tool to build as part of your project, as a sub project?
Then look qmake (http://doc.trolltech.com/4.3/qmake-manual.html)docs.
Have a look at SUBDIRS.
