    Default Why I cannot open an application that a friend had give to me?

    You know i am making a simple clock application...( I cannot attach files [ Error Invalid type of file ] so i give you links from rapidshare ) .. Take a look from here..

    But i had tell to a friend to add some funtcionalities.. SO he did it and he sent me the project ( Link: Here ).. But it doesn't work... And he says that he tested on 2 computers and it works.. Why all that?

    P.s Please download the projects and then answer me... Otherwise you will not understand the problem...

    Second P.s Minimize the application and it will go to the tray.. There are the options...

    You seem to be resistent against advices. If zip is not accepted use an other package format.

    Why shoud I know it if you don't say what error you get.[/quote]

    Well, if I must download your app, you won't get a solution! Hell, start to ask proper questions and dont force peoples to download tons of unrelated code.

    See http://catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

    First.. I cannot upload rar either exe file so i simple upload it to megaupload...
    Second: there is no error.. When you press debug it just says the programm had unxpectendly closed.
    Third: Tons of files? If a 380 kb file and a 417 kb file sounds big to you no problem...

    Final please somebody answer my question... Just that...

    We are not going to download from rapidshare (and your links will probably get removed soon by a mod).

    Your post contains insufficient information.

    You need to figure out how to attach files correctly and how to ask a smart question (view the link given above)

    The forum does not allow upload of arbitrary file because that is simply a recipe for disaster: viruses, trojans etc. It also limits size because space costs. You can post code inline and attach small supporting files.
    What i suposed to do then?
    You are supposed to explain what happens (or doesn't happen) when you run the program and what you have/haven't tried to work out why. I suspect it runs on your friend's computers because he/she has Qt libraries installed for the program to find, and you don't. However, since you haven't explained in even the simplest terms what is or isn't working then we can only guess.

    Added: Crashes at line 137 of roloi.cpp: cstTimer is almost certainly NULL or invalid. That's all the time I have to debug your code.

    So did you find the solution to the problem?

    No. Which part of "That's all the time I have to debug your code." did you not understand?

    If your friend swears that the .exe file runs on two of his computers, then it is quite possible that you are missing some libraries on YOUR computer.

    To be honest, if this is the case then it's not your responsibility. Tell your friend that he/she may have forgotten to link against some libraries when building the .exe.

    If you know it's written in Qt, then by far the easiest way is to download Qt and install it.

    You could also post meaningful error messages. Applications don't just fail to run; the operating system provides a wealth of information on exactly what the problem was, and you haven't provided any of it so far.

    Under Linux, the easiest way to gather such output is to run an application from the console, and capture the output. I suppose it is the same under Windows.
