Hi, guys

I will deploy some applications in a USB stick, and I am planning to keep the Qt DLLs in a separate, common folder for all apps.

So, I'm planning to have a "qt.conf" with each executable, to make sure they will find the libraries.

I have read in the docs that, on a "qt.conf" file, the paths are relative to the directory containing the application executable, and this is perfect for a USB stick.

So, this file would be something like this:

Qt Code: 
  1. [Paths]
  2. Prefix=..\Qt
  3. Binaries=bin
  4. Plugins=plugins
To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

The directory structure for, say, QtCore4.dll and qgif4.dll (one of the plugins) is as bellow, from the point of view of any of the apps:

..\Qt\bin\QtCore4.dll
..\Qt\plugins\imageformats\qgif4.dll

But when I start any of them from a "cmd" window prompt, in the executable direcory,the message "could not find QtCore4.dll" always pops up.

If I manually put the full path of the "bin" directory in the PATH variable (in this case, "K:\Qt\bin", and the app in "K:\pp\pp.exe"), it works.

What am i doing wrong?

Thanks
Francisco
