How to deploy Application compiled with QT3 in Cygwin to Windows?

How to deploy Application compiled with QT3 in Cygwin to Windows?

[Pok Wilson]

Good day,

I have successfully compiled my GUI Applicaton using QT3 in Cygwin.

May I know how can I deploy this Appliation in Windows?
 

As it requires a X server to run QT3 in Cygwin, when I try to run the application.exe in Windows platform, I get the message "Cannot Connect to X Server".

I can run my Application in the X server.

I hope to be able to run my Application.exe without having connect to X server in Windows so that it can be deployed to Windows platform.
 
Thanks,
Wilson

You can't, sorry.

Being Cygwin a Unix emulation layer, you should treat your application 
as a Unix one: could a GUI Unix application QT3-based run without an X 
server? No.

If you need to run your application in Windows you have not to make it a 
Cygwin application but, instead, a "real" Windows application and 
user/link the Windows version of QT3.

That's not a Cygwin question and this isn't a QT support forum.

That shouldn't suprise you. If your code uses Cygwin/POSIX facilities
not available on plain Windows, you'll need to change that code (i.e.
"port" it) to what is available. This mailing list can't help you with
that.

Thanks for your information. How can I "make a Windows application and user/link the Windows version of QT3"? I tried to compile the same piece of code in Windows version of QT4. But I cant compare as some Cygwin libraries are missing? 
 
How should I move on from here?
 
Thanks,
Wilson
