    1                   INSTALLING Qt/All Source Version 4.5.1.
     1        .1.
    22
    3 1.  If you have the commercial edition of Qt, install your license
    4     file as $HOME/.qt-license if you are on Unix. If you are on
    5     Windows, copy the license file into your home directory
    6     (this may be known as the userprofile environment variable) and
    7     rename it to .qt-license. For example on Windows 2000,
    8     %USERPROFILE% should be something like C:\Documents and
    9     Settings\username.
     3For full installation instructions for each supported platform, please
     4see http://qt.nokia.com/doc/4.6/installation.html, the file
     5doc/html/installation.html in this package, or follow one of the following
     6links:

    11     For the open source version you do not need a license file.

     9Mac OS X:         http://qt.nokia.com/doc/4.6/install-mac.html

    13 2.  Unpack the archive if you have not done so already:
    14 
    15     On Unix (X11 and Mac):
    16         cd /tmp
    17         gunzip %DISTNAME%.tar.gz        # uncompress the archive
    18         tar xvf %DISTNAME%.tar          # unpack it
    19 
    20     This creates the directory /tmp/%DISTNAME% containing the files
    21     from the archive. We only support the GNU version of the tar
    22     archiving utility. Note that on some systems it is called gtar.
    23 
    24     On Windows, uncompress the files into the directory you want Qt
    25     installed, e.g. C:\Qt\4.5.1.
    26 
    27     NOTE: The install path must not contain any spaces.
    28 
    29 4. Environment variables
    30 
    31    In order to build and use Qt, the PATH environment variable needs
    32    to be extended:
    33 
    34         PATH               - to locate qmake, moc and other Qt tools
    35 
    36    On Windows, this is done by adding c:\Qt\4.5.1\bin
    37    to the PATH variable. On Unix, this is done by adding
    38    /tmp/%DISTNAME%.
    39 
    40    For newer versions of Windows, PATH can be extended through
    41    "Control Panel->System->Advanced->Environment variables" and for
    42    older versions by editing c:\autoexec.bat.
    43 
    44    In .profile (if your Unix shell is bash), add the following lines:
    45 
    46         PATH=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.5.1/bin:$PATH
    47         export PATH
    48 
    49    In .login (in case your Unix shell is csh or tcsh), add the following line:
    50 
    51         setenv PATH /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.5.1/bin:$PATH
    52 
    53    If you use a different Unix shell, please modify your environment
    54    variables accordingly.
    55 
    56    For some X11 compilers that do not support rpath you must also
    57    extended the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to include
    58    /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.5.1/lib. On Linux or Mac with GCC
    59    this step is not needed.
    60 
    61 4.  Building
    62 
    63 4.1 Building on Unix
    64 
    65     To configure the Qt library for your machine type, run the
    66     ./configure script in the package directory.
    67 
    68     By default, Qt is configured for installation in the
    69     /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.5.1 directory, but this can be
    70     changed by using the -prefix option. Alternatively, the
    71     -prefix-install option can be used to specify a "local"
    72     installation within the source directory.
    73 
    74         cd /tmp/%DISTNAME%
    75         ./configure
    76 
    77     Type "./configure -help" to get a list of all available options.
    78 
    79     To create the library and compile all the demos, examples, tools,
    80     and tutorials, type:
    81 
    82         make
    83 
    84     If you did not configure Qt using the -prefix-install option,
    85     you need to install the library, demos, examples, tools, and
    86     tutorials in the appropriate place. To do this, type:
    87 
    88         su -c "make install"
    89 
    90     and enter the root password. On some systems, you have to use the
    91     sudo command as follows:
    92 
    93         sudo make install
    94 
    95     and enter your password, this requires that you have administrator access
    96     to your machine.
    97 
    98     Note that on some systems the make utility is named differently,
    99     e.g. gmake. The configure script tells you which make utility to
    100     use.
    101 
    102     If you need to reconfigure and rebuild Qt from the same location,
    103     ensure that all traces of the previous configuration are removed
    104     by entering the build directory and typing
    105 
    106         make confclean
    107 
    108     before running the configure script again.
    109 
    110 4.2 Building on Windows
    111 
    112     To configure the Qt library for your machine type:
    113 
    114         C:
    115         cd \Qt\4.5.1
    116         configure
    117 
    118     Type "configure -help" to get a list of all available options.
    119 
    120     If you are using the "-direct3d" option, make sure that you have
    121     the Direct3D SDK installed, and that you have run the
    122     %DXSDK_DIR%\Utilities\Bin\dx_setenv.cmd command, before attempting
    123     to run configure.
    124 
    125     The actual commands needed to build Qt depends on your development
    126     system. For Microsoft Visual Studio to create the library and
    127     compile all the demos, examples, tools and tutorials type:
    128 
    129         nmake
    130 
    131     If you need to reconfigure and rebuild Qt from the same location,
    132     ensure that all traces of the previous configuration are removed
    133     by entering the build directory and typing
    134 
    135         nmake confclean
    136 
    137     before running the configure script again.
    138 
    139 5.  That's all. Qt is now installed.
    140 
    141     If you are new to Qt, we suggest that you take a look at the demos
    142     and examples to see Qt in action. Run the Qt Examples and Demos
    143     either by typing 'qtdemo' on the command line or through the
    144     desktop's Start menu.
