I'm using a .ini file as a config file to load into QSettings for initializing some things in my program, and I'm wondering how to make sure the file is included and in the right place when building/deploying (i.e., a specific place that the program knows to look for it). I don't want to add it to a resource file because those get compiled and the point of this is to allow the file to be edited without re-compiling the program. I've found information about including libraries in the .pro file, but this is just a single .ini file so I'm not sure that would work the same. Is there anything I can do besides copy and paste the file into the folder with the executable after building/deploying? It seems like there should be a better way, I'm just having a hard time finding it. Any pointers would be helpful!
