distributing custom widgets


Message 1 in thread

Hi again (busy day!)

I have a widget built as a designer plugin.  It has been inserted into a form 
in an application which is compiled to use shared rather than static 
libraries (dlls on windows).  I know I need to package my exe with the 
relevant Qt / MS dlls, but does the build system magically include the plugin 
widget in the exe? Or do I have to also add the plugin library to my 
distribution pack??

[sorry for asking but am lacking a convenient test machine without Qt on]

Regards,


Amit

The widget is not compiled into the executable, you have to provide the
plugin.
