If you are on - Windows, copy the license file into your home directory - (this may be known as the userprofile environment variable) and - rename it to .qt-license. For example on Windows XP, - %USERPROFILE% should be something like C:\Documents and - Settings\username. +For full installation instructions for each supported platform, please +see http://qt.nokia.com/doc/%VERSION%/installation.html, the file +doc/html/installation.html in this package, or follow one of the following +links: + +Embedded Linux: http://qt.nokia.com/doc/%VERSION%/qt-embedded-install.html +Mac OS X: http://qt.nokia.com/doc/%VERSION%/install-mac.html +Windows: http://qt.nokia.com/doc/%VERSION%/install-win.html +Windows CE: http://qt.nokia.com/doc/%VERSION%/install-wince.html +X11 Platforms: http://qt.nokia.com/doc/%VERSION%/install-x11.html +Symbian Platform: http://qt.nokia.com/doc/%VERSION%/install-symbian.html - For the open source version you do not need a license file. - -2. Unpack the archive if you have not done so already: - - On Unix (X11 and Mac): - cd /tmp - gunzip %DISTNAME%.tar.gz # uncompress the archive - tar xvf %DISTNAME%.tar # unpack it - - This creates the directory /tmp/%DISTNAME% containing the files - from the archive. We only support the GNU version of the tar - archiving utility. Note that on some systems it is called gtar. - - On Windows, uncompress the files into the directory you want Qt - installed, e.g. C:\Qt\%VERSION%. - - NOTE: The install path must not contain any spaces. - -4. Environment variables - - In order to build and use Qt, the PATH environment variable needs - to be extended to locate qmake, moc and other Qt tools - - On Windows, this is done by adding C:\Qt\%VERSION%\bin - to the PATH variable. On Unix, this is done by adding - /tmp/%DISTNAME%. - - For newer versions of Windows, PATH can be extended through - "Control Panel->System->Advanced->Environment variables" and for - older versions by editing C:\autoexec.bat. - - In .profile (if your Unix shell is bash), add the following lines: - - PATH=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-%VERSION%/bin:$PATH - export PATH - - In .login (in case your Unix shell is csh or tcsh), add the following line: - - setenv PATH /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-%VERSION%/bin:$PATH - - If you use a different Unix shell, please modify your environment - variables accordingly. - - For some X11 compilers that do not support rpath you must also - extended the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to include - /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-%VERSION%/lib. On Linux or Mac with GCC - this step is not needed. - -4. Building - -4.1 Building on Unix - - To configure the Qt library for your machine type, run the - ./configure script in the package directory. - - By default, Qt is configured for installation in the - /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-%VERSION% directory, but this can be - changed by using the -prefix option. - - cd /tmp/%DISTNAME% - ./configure - - Type "./configure -help" to get a list of all available options. - - To create the library and compile all the demos, examples, tools, - and tutorials, type: - - make - - If you did not configure Qt using the -prefix-install option, - you need to install the library, demos, examples, tools, and - tutorials in the appropriate place. To do this, type: - - su -c "make install" - - and enter the root password. On some systems, you have to use the - sudo command as follows: - - sudo make install - - and enter your password, this requires that you have administrator access - to your machine. - - Note that on some systems the make utility is named differently, - e.g. gmake. The configure script tells you which make utility to - use. - - If you need to reconfigure and rebuild Qt from the same location, - ensure that all traces of the previous configuration are removed - by entering the build directory and typing - - make confclean - - before running the configure script again. - -4.2 Building on Windows - - To configure the Qt library for your machine type: - - C: - cd \Qt\%VERSION% - configure - - Type "configure -help" to get a list of all available options. - - If you are using the "-direct3d" option, make sure that you have - the Direct3D SDK installed, and that you have run the - %DXSDK_DIR%\Utilities\Bin\dx_setenv.cmd command, before attempting - to run configure. - - The actual commands needed to build Qt depends on your development - system. For Microsoft Visual Studio to create the library and - compile all the demos, examples, tools and tutorials type: - - nmake - - If you need to reconfigure and rebuild Qt from the same location, - ensure that all traces of the previous configuration are removed - by entering the build directory and typing - - nmake confclean - - before running the configure script again. - -5. That's all. Qt is now installed. - - If you are new to Qt, we suggest that you take a look at the demos - and examples to see Qt in action. Run the Qt Examples and Demos - either by typing 'qtdemo' on the command line or through the - desktop's Start menu. - - You might also want to try the following links: - - http://qt.nokia.com/doc/%VERSION%/how-to-learn-qt.html - http://qt.nokia.com/doc/%VERSION%/tutorial.html - http://qt.nokia.com/developer - - We hope you will enjoy using Qt.
