I cannot deploy my application

[ChrisW67]

The requirements beyond the basic QtX4.dlls are spelled out in the Deploying an Application on Windows. If your application uses images in formats other than PNG, SQL, CJK text processing, etc. then you may well need to deploy plugins with your program.

I will read it through carefully. Thanks!

My "Step by Step" instruction how to build applications without libstdc++-6.dll, libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll, Qt5Core.dll, Qt5Gui.dll and so on.

Tools:

Version of Qt: Qt 5.2.0 for Windows 32-bit (MinGW 4.8, OpenGL, 689 MB)

OS: Window 7

- download and install Qt 5.2.0 for Windows 32-bit (MinGW 4.8, OpenGL, 689 MB) (check Source Components) from here http://qt-project.org/downloads

- move to C:\Qt\Qt5.2.0\5.2.0\Src\qtbase\mkspecs\win32-g++ and open qmake.conf

- find QMAKE_LFLAGS in qmake.conf and rewrite it:

QMAKE_LFLAGS = -static -static-libgcc

- open console Start -> All Programs -> Qt 5.2.0 -> 5.2.0 -> MinGW 4.8 (32-bit) -> Qt 5.2.0 for Desktop (MinGW 4.8 32 bit)

cd c:\Qt\Qt5.2.0\5.2.0\Src\qtbase

configure -static -prefix "C:\Qt\Qt5.2.0_static" -opengl desktop -nomake examples -nomake tests

mingw32-make

mingw32-make install

- run QtCreator

- in menu "Tools" -> "Options..."

- Build & Run -> Qt Versions -> click "Add..." button -> select "C:\Qt\Qt5.2.0_static\bin\qmake.exe" -> click "Apply" button

- go to "Kits" tab -> click "Add" button

- write in the field "Name": Desktop Qt 5.2.0 Static MinGW 32 bit

- select in "Qt version": static Qt virsion

- click Ok

- create a test project, for this:

- in menu "File" -> "New File or Project" -> "Applications" -> "Qt Widgets Application" -> click "Choose" button

- enter the "Name": Hello_Static_Qt -> enter the "Create in": D:\QtProjects -> click "Next" -> select "Desktop Qt 5.2.0 Static MinGW 32 bit" -> click "Next" -> click "Next" -> click "Finish"

- click "Projects" in the right panel

- click "Desktop Qt 5.2.0 Static MinGW 32 bit" on the top

- select "Edit build configuration": Release

- in the "Build Steps" in "qmake" expend "Details"

- select "qmake build configuration": Release

- enter "Additional arguments": "CONFIG += release" (in double quotes)

- in "Menu" -> click "Build" -> "Build Project 'Hello_static_Qt'"

- go to "D:\QtProjects\build-Hello_Static_Qt-Desktop_Qt_5_2_0_Static_MinGW_32bit-Release\release"

- run your static application: Hello_Static_Qt.exe
