odbc/connection problem

[triperzz]

Yes, that's a plugin with QODBC driver.

Put it in the right directory, just as documentation says, or compile it into your application or Qt.

i can use this if it is in the c:qt\4.3.2\.....\drivers (so u mean to say that i have to put the qsqlodbc4.dll here) if a computer dont have qt installed this dir/doesnt exist...

to run my program in computer that dont have qt ( i do this):

1 copy the exe file

2 copy the QTCore4.dll and QTSql4.dll (can be with the application)

3 make the dir... c:qt\4.3.2\......\drivers

4 copy the qsqlodbc4.dll

5 move the qsqlodbc4.dll to the dir i make (in number 3)

note: " if i dont do 2-5 steps my program will 'run' but connection to 'database' fails"

6 then my program will run and connect to database

my question is: is it posible to remove number 2-5 step??...

just copy the exe file and run...

1. it will run even without the .dlls required to run the program files (i made this by -static)

2. it will connect to database even without (.dlls that connects to database) QTCore4.dll, QTSql4.dll and qsqlodbc4.dll ( i dunno how)

can i build my apllication that will add this .dlls (QTCore4.dll, QTSql4.dll and qsqlodbc4.dll) internaly so that it will nolonger require this .dlls..?

1 copy the exe file

Where do you copy that file exactly?

can i build my apllication that will add this .dlls (QTCore4.dll, QTSql4.dll and qsqlodbc4.dll) internaly so that it will nolonger require this .dlls..?

Yes, you already asked that question and the answer is still the same: link your application statically.

Where do you copy that file exactly?

in the folder of my project.. after i build it, QDEVELOP will build an exe file. That exe file is the one that i copy.. is that right??

Yes, you already asked that question and the answer is still the same: link your application statically.

how?....

i do it in cmd.. configure -static-release -no-exection then mingw32-make sub-src (is this right?)

OK, let me put it in another way: If you copy your application to C:\xxx then you have to place qsqlodbc4.dll in c:\xxx\sqldrivers directory.

i do it in cmd.. configure -static-release -no-exection then mingw32-make sub-src (is this right?)

If it compiles, then it's OK. You can add -qt-sql-odbc switch to get rid of the plugin.

thanks!! i dont really understand it when you first post this reply... now i understand, and it works...

If it compiles, then it's OK. You can add -qt-sql-odbc switch to get rid of the plugin.

i will try this one now.. in cmd qt\...>configure <command> (right??)

thanks again...

my app still require's the .dlls files even if i execute the -static in config??

maybe my steps in making my program static are wrong can you please help me...

my steps are:

in cmd

1. c:\qt\4.3.2>configure -static -release -no-exceptions

2. c:\qt\4.3.2>mingw32-make sub-src

3. c:\qt\4.3.2>configure -saveconfig

is their something im missing?

when i run this i think im just rerunning the configure.exe (i first run this for my libraries after the installation then now rerun it for -static -release)

plz give me some guide to do this right...

my app still require's the .dlls files even if i execute the -static in config??

Which ones? How do you compile your application?

[triperzz]

Which ones?

same .dlls and now with the Gui4.dll.

How do you compile your application?

i just compile it in QDevelop..
i dont no if thats right?i compile it after i run the configure -static in cmd... i dont know how to -static my proj... plz help me how..

[jacek]

same .dlls and now with the Gui4.dll.

Do you have Qt installed in more than one place?

i just compile it in QDevelop..
i dont no if thats right?

Make sure QDevelop is using qmake from the static Qt build.

[triperzz]

Do you have Qt installed in more than one place?

none, i just install qt and mingw.. plus I just save my project in desktop.

Make sure QDevelop is using qmake from the static Qt build

how?

[jacek]

how?

I don't use QDevelop, but there should be some dialog that allows you to configure paths to all of the tools you need to compile your application. Since you have just one installation of Qt, the paths should be OK.

What files do you have in c:\qt\4.3.2\lib folder? How big are the .a files?

[triperzz]

What files do you have in c:\qt\4.3.2\lib folder? How big are the .a files?

in my c:qt\4.3.2\lib have .a files, some are 1mb - less the biggest is 9 mb for ui...


how can i make my app static? step by step plz i think im missing something...
