Package: http://releases.qt-project.org/qt5.0/beta-snapshots/2012-06-04_19-47-13/Qt-5.0-beta-offline-win-x86_msvc2010.exe
After completing installation of the package, there is no related group of shortcuts in the Start Menu.
This error does not occur when isntalling the recently-released QtSDK 1.2.1 (which uses the same installer framework), so I assume that there is something missing from the configuration of this package rather than a bug in the installer framework.
I think we want to stick as close as we can to the shortcuts in the Qt 4.x packages
Qt 4.8.2 packages create the following shortcuts:
- Example and Demos - <installdir>\bin\qtdemo.exe
- Qt Assistant - <installdir>\bin\assistant.exe
- Qt Designer - <installdir>\bin\designer.exe
- Qt Linguist - <installdir>\bin\linguist.exe
- Qt 4.8.2 Command Prompt - %COMSPEC% /k "<installdir>\bin\qtvars.bat"
- Qt Readme - C:\Windows\notepad.exe <installdir>\README
- qt.digia.com - should be qt-project.org in opensource packages
- Uninstall Qt 4.8.2 Opensource
- Visual Studio with Qt 4.8.2 - <installdir>\bin\qtvars.bat vsstart
- Qt 4.8.2 (Build Debug Libraries) - <installdir>\bin\qtvars.bat compile_debug
The last shortcut only appears in the MinGw package, while the second-last only appears in the msvc packages.
For 5.0, <installdir>\bin will need to be something like <installdir>\Desktop\Qt\<version>\<compiler>\bin.
The Uninstall shortcut should point to <installdir>\SDKMaintenanceTool.exe.
