I want to know the procedure to build linux executable and windows stand alone executable.can somebody help with the steps of making them.

QtCreator for Windows can already create Windows executables.

For the Linux executables you'll need a cross-compile toolchain, build Qt with it and then configured a "kit" in QtCreator with the toolchain's compiler and the cross-built Qt.
It usually easier to just build on Linux though, even if it is just within a virtual machine.

Cheers,
