QtWebKit Effect On File Size

[giowck]

webkit.dll is 8 MB

webkit.dll is 8 MB

Does that mean, if I want to use QtWebKit in my application, I need to have an 8-meg DLL file (webkit.dll) in the package that I distribute?

Yes, and QtWebKit is more like 19 MB on Windows*.

I have an app that requires only the Core/GUI, SQL, SVG libraries (and a handful of plugins) for its primary function but, because I used Assistant to serve the help I needed to bundle:

22/06/2009 11:30 PM 1,061,888 QtCLucene4.dll
22/06/2009 11:30 PM 637,952 QtHelp4.dll
22/06/2009 10:42 PM 1,380,352 QtNetwork4.dll
22/06/2009 11:17 PM 19,530,240 QtWebKit4.dll
22/06/2009 10:42 PM 504,832 QtXml4.dll


as well. WebKit is approximately half the deployment size in my case. Thankfully these files compress well.

* This is the Qt SDK 2009.03 size, built with MingW32. Built with the Windows SDK compiler it is, as other posts have implied, about 8 MB.
