Install headers as read-only to prevent accidently modifications

XMLWordPrintable

    • All, Windows

      That is mostly for Windows, but may be useful for Linux too when Qt is installed in a home directory.

      Reason is, that is easily possible to modify the Qt headers when e.g. doing Rename Usages from QtCreator.

      That has happen more than one time in the past and can be prevented by:

      • installing Qt as privileged user
      • making the (easily changed) header files read-only

      Note that this also applies for the MinGW headers that are installed together with Qt.

        No reviews matched the request. Check your Options in the drop-down menu of this sections header.
