Hello people,
Yesterday i was going through vlc player's documentation
it told U R USING Qt4 interface...but qt is not installed right?
How does it work den...
i also use a utility win32 -diskimager
it has the files needed for qt programs that guid.dll etc etc
BUt the point is that qt is not installed ...what significance?
Thanks

Qt doesn't have to be installed. On Windows, the most basic Qt programs can work be simply including "QtCore4.dll" in the programs main distribution. More complex programs may include "QtGUI4.dll" too. VLC probably contains both files.

Maybe it's statically linked? Then you don't need those files.

Either that file could be in the program directory or windows system directory, if the program was compiled with share librarys. If the progam was statically compiled
all the library's inside the dll's will be put in the exe.file, so they will no be in the distribution setup
