How to create a standalone executable?

[Ashish]

Hi,

I have created an application using Qt, ITK and C++ in the Visual Studio 8.0 IDE. Now I want to create a standalone executable. Can anyone please guide me how to create a standalone executable for the application?

Thanks,
Ashish

You will have to compile static libs for all your dependencies (Qt, ITK) and then you will have to put all your external resources (icons, translations, etc) in a Qt resource file. Then you can build a stand-along executable. This will be huge...
