I integrate my Qt5/Android app to AdMob with some open source library. In this library's README author tells following:
Copy google-play-services_lib/ folders from android-sdk/extras/google/google_play_services/libproject/ directory to your AndroidManifest.xml location
But I do not have libproject in my android-sdk/extras/google/google_play_services/ installation. Here in other threads I found recommendation unzip needed library from one of files located at /extras/google/m2repository/com/google/android/gms. Now I am weird - which one library I have to unzip and use from this folder. In this folder there are 41 library folders with 21 version subfolder in each one. Anybody help me with this. May be I need just download an old android-sdk/extras/google/google_play_services/libproject/google-play-services_lib/ from somewhere? Where can I take this? I build app for min API 16, target API 23 but I'm going change to latest target API at summer.
I think the answer from this Qt forum should solve your problem:
Follow this guide https://developers.google.com/mobile-ads-sdk/docs/
Add reference to library project. Add project.properties file with:
#android.library.reference.1=../../../android/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20131030/sdk/extras/google/google_play_services/libproject/google-play-services_lib#
path must be relative not absolute
Prepare google-play-services_lib
Go to google-play-services_lib folder in sdk and run
Android update lib-project --path . ant clean ant release
Run project in Qt Creator

Could someone please explain how one uses the premake extensions. I added the eclipse extension in a directory under my premake installation. And in the premake script I added recuire "eclipse".
Running the script with premake5 eclipse, I get an error module "eclipse.lua" not found.
I added the path of the modules directory to my environment variables.
I'm using premake (premake5) on Windows 8.
Thanks
addons need to reside in a folder. You need to create a "eclipse" folder, then copy all the files in it, and the "eclipse" folder should be located where premake can load it (either next the executable or some other place handled through environment variables)
I got this working by adding the full path to the require statement.
require "C:/premake/eclipse/eclipse"
and running the command as premake5 eclipse
Note: This plugin does not generate project files that one can import into Eclipse.
When using lein 2.2, trying to put jar files in /lib does not work.
I tried and it doesn't seems to work but plenty of docs out there says this way still works.
The lib directory functionality was removed in Leiningen v2.0, in favor of a repository (repeatability).
To add free floating jars to a project, you will need to either deploy your dependency to Clojars or a Maven repository. The Maven repository can be as simple as a directory in your project folder.
Please see the answer to this question if you need the jar in a project local folder:
How do I use checked-in jars with leiningen
You do not need to use maven to access a local jar file in Leiningen v2.0
Just use syntax like this in your project.clj:
:resource-paths [ "local-jars/*" ]
and then place your *.jar files in the local-jars subdirectory of your project.
Please see this blog: http://www.troyastorino.com/tidbits/lein2-local-jars
When I release my Qt project, I want to redistribute the QtCore5.dll and Qtxxx.dll files.
How can I make myapp.exe to find them automatically?
The best way of doing this seems to be by editing a qt.conf file placed in the same folder as my executable.
myapp.exe is in c:\myapp\bin folder
The dlls are in c:myapp\common folder
"Better" way is to put your qt.conf into your resources :/qt/etc/qt.conf. This way has highest priority for resolving platform dependencies.
In our project we use cmake to generate necessary qt.conf file: in debug mode we put path to installed Qt binaries and in release - to local (deploy) folder.
Qt5xxx.dll files are linked, so you should place it in same folder, or make them available throught PATH environment variable. If you really want such exotic redistribution system (please, say real reason) - you may create your own platform-specific launcher, that will load necessary .dll's from any path.
Just put all required dll files into the same directory as your executable.
Note, that there are more files to distribute than just Qt*.dll - you will need proper plugin from platforms subdirectory and many more. Read Qt documentation on deploying application under Windows - it will teach you all required files.
I am trying to install ControlFx for creating dialogs in my application. I have put controlsfx-8.x.x.jar file in the appropriate folder (lib/ext). It is the same folder where jfxrt.jar is present.
I am unable to add this jar to build path. The only option available is configure build path.
Can someone let me know what I am doing wrong?
Thanks
Controlsfx should not be put in lib/ext but simply added to your projects build path!
I'm working on a Qt4.7.3 project on mac osX (with xCode). I would like to move my Qt directory (installed with Qt installer). The problem is that some Qt executable files have hardcoded paths. I've already recompiled Qmake specifying the new Qt directory. So the project now compile and link perfectly, but at run time it cannot find the qt libraries (it still look into my old Qt directory). Is there other harcoded path somewhere, other configuration files to edit?
By the way, the reason why I want to move my Qt directory is to allow to share qt files via revision control tool.
The pre-built installer actually puts all the framework files into the system location (/Library/Framworks/) and you will have a hard time moving those.
Your best bet is to build it from source and specify a different install location. ./configure -help will show you how. (Use the -prefix option)
Hard links could be a way to go in this kind of situation I guess.
Try this.
Create qt.conf file in the same folder as your qmake.exe file.
[Paths]
Prefix = E:/Qt/4.8.3
