Sound not playing when using executable file

[Zotop]

Hi everyone,

I've been travelling between posts and documentation but haven't found a solution for the following problem.

I'm using Netbeans under Ubuntu and Qt 4.7.1.

I'm doing a small alarm clock application and having some problems with the sound.

When I compile and run from Netbeans, the sound works, but not when I run the executable file outside Netbeans.

I had the same problem with some images but it got fixed by using a resource file.

Here is my resource file :


<!DOCTYPE RCC><RCC version="1.0">
<qresource>
<file>icons/up_arrow.png</file>
<file>icons/down_arrow.png</file>
<file>sounds/alarm_clock.wav</file>
</qresource>
</RCC>

And here is how I play a sound using Phonon :


Phonon::MediaObject *music;

music = Phonon::createPlayer(Phonon::MusicCategory,Phonon: :MediaSource("sounds/alarm_clock.wav"));
music->play();

Any help would be appreciated.

Added after 10 minutes:

Ok solution found :)

For those who might face this problem, here it goes;

Adding ":/" solves the problem :


music = Phonon::createPlayer(Phonon::MusicCategory,Phonon: :MediaSource(":/sounds/alarm_clock.wav"));

Should have read further... Sorry. :D
