Qt5 Static Build yields Failed to load platform plugin "windows"
c++, qt, qt5, visual-studio, windows
Solution
I solved it. Thanks to this I was able to get everything to work. I added the following libraries:
opengl32.lib
Qt5PlatformSupport.lib
qwindows.lib
I also added the following to my code:
#include <QtPlugin>
Q_IMPORT_PLUGIN (QWindowsIntegrationPlugin);
Problem
I am writing a Qt application on Windows using Visual Studio 2012. Using the Qt Add-in and a custom built static distribution of Qt 5.0.2. I am running into the dreaded `"Failed to load platform plugin windows"` error whenever I run the application. I have added the following to the linker input: ``` imm32.lib winmm.lib Ws2_32.lib qtmaind.lib Qt5Cored.lib Qt5Guid.lib Qt5Widgetsd.lib ``` At first I thought that maybe I should add "qwindowsd.lib" to that list as well however that did not fix the problem. What do I need to do in order to make my application run?
