Hi Eric, David, Thanks for your valuable suggestions. I am right now copying Qt libraries (libQtCore, libQtGui, libQtOpenGL) manually using INSTALL( FILE ... ) command.
I installed latest version of CMake which enables DeployQt4 facility. It will be very helpful if you give a small 4-5 lines of example which copies the required Qt libraries by default to my install directory. I looked at the example link Eric provided, but could not succeed implementing it. Thanks to both of you. -- regards, Manoj On Fri, Nov 9, 2012 at 6:10 PM, David Cole <[email protected]> wrote: > You should really take Eric's previous advice if you're building a Qt > application: > > "A good starting point may be Mike's blog entry on DeployQt4 as well: > http://mikemcquaid.com/2012/01/04/deploying-qt-applications-with-deployqt4/ > " > > > On Fri, Nov 9, 2012 at 4:25 AM, Manoj Vaghela <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Dear Eric, > > > > Thank you very much for your quick reply. > > > > INSTALL( PROGRAMS ... ) worked fine. > > If I am using this, I also do not need to specify any IMPORTED related > > stuff. > > > > As my understanding now, the following lines are sufficient for creating > > pack. > > > > INSTALL( TARGETS ${EXECUTABLE_NAME} DESTINATION ${INSTALL_DIR} ) // For > > Executable from the current CMakeLists.txt > > > > INSTALL( PROGRAMS ${EXTERNAL_EXE} DESTINATION ${INSTALL_DIR} ) // For > > including external executable in the archive > > > > INSTALL( FILES LIB1 LIB2 DESTINATION ${INSTALL_DIR} ) // For libraries > > (current or external) or any other files > > > > A few clarifications required: > > > > For an application using Qt libraries, should I pack the related Qt > > libraries (QtCore, QtGui, QtOpenGL) ?? or not ??
