Configure Qt without examples?

[Boron]

Hello,

I don't need the examples of Qt (4.4.1 open source). For as they take a long time to compile I want to "configure" Qt to ignore the examples.
But I cannot find a suitable switch in the help of configure.exe.
How can I tell the installation not to compile the examples?

just comment


# SUBDIRS += examples
} else:isEqual(PROJECT, demos) {
# SUBDIRS += demos

in projects.pro in QTDIR

On X11 one can also use configure switches "-nomake demos -nomake examples".

Editing projects.pro worked perfectly. Thanks a lot.

There is much more clear way, when configure is done just run "make sub-src" and only the library will be built.

agree, but it works only under x11. editing of projects.pro works everywhere :)

I'm with windows and it works. ;)

Thanks, quoting in the projects.pro file worked perfect! :)

If you just navigate to the appropriate directly (rather than root Qt) and run make, it will only build that part of the library. For example, QtGUI.

add "-nomake examples -nomake demos" to your configure invocations, it works on both windows and linux. I cannot speak for any other platforms though. Those commands accomplish the same as commenting the lines out of the projects.pro file.
