qt project on windows and mac
Message 1 in thread
Hello,
We've just started evaluating QT here and have created a very small app
using VS2005 on Windows. It has a QMainWindow with a QPushButton on it
that pops up a hello world QMessageBox. This all works fine within
VS2005 - builds and runs ok.
We are also interested in running on the Mac. We exported the VS
project using the menu option 'Qt -> Create Basic .PRO file' and then
used qmake on the Mac to generate a XCode project. That all seemed to
work ok - can load the project up into Xcode. When we try to build it
on the Mac we get an error;
>> Running custom shell script (1 error)
>> /Developer/Tools/Qt/rcc -name hw_mainwindow hw_maindindow.qrc -o
GeneratedFiles/qrc_hw_mainwindow.cpp
>> RCC Warning: No resources in resource description
>> make: *** [GeneratedFiles/qrc_hw_mainwindow.cpp] Error 1
Can anybody shed some light on this? The only resource that I can think
that might be in the project is a program icon? AFAIK the form itself
is turned into C++ code?
Thanks!

Sounds like the VS2005 integration created a resource file even though it
seems you haven't explicitly added any. If you comment out
RESOURCES+=hw_mainwindow.qrc in your .pro file, does it work?

Glad it was that simple. :)

Probably a better solution is to scope this line in your .pro file like
this:
win32 {
RESOURCES+=hw_mainwindow.qrc
}
That way when you build on Windows it will still include this Windows
resource.
