I have made an application in QtCreator
I use QML for the GUI, and I use QBS as the build system
I want to be able to deploy the application to windows (and maybe to Linux and MacOS, but right now, I'm only concerned with Windows)
I tried following the deployment tutorial for Qmake with a minimal example(using QBS to build the binary on windows, and with the MSVC2017 compiler, as of 2018-05-23 3:38 PM GMT-6 I've been trying to install MinGW with the Qt Maintenance tool for the last 6 hours, and it's still only at 5%, so I will try with MinGW once that finishes), but I have the following problem
using the Qt Quick Application - Swipe template, the release version with the MSVC2017 compiler, after using windeployqt.exe --release --qmldir ../src example.exe to get the dlls and other libraries
and trying to execute example.exe, I get a message saying
"Qml debugging is enabled. Only use this in a safe environment!"
in a cmd window, right before the actual application starts
and even if I try to disable that in the build step of the project, it doesn't get disabled
it still shows the cmd with the message, is there a way to completely make sure the build settings will work? am I missing a QtCreator configuration to make sure the settings I set actually do what they're intended? do I need to restart Qtcreator or Windows for them to work?
Update: still happens, even with MinGW
This is a bug that will be fixed in Creator 4.7. See https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-20377.
