    Description

      The way how examples are now integrated into the Welcome Page and can opened directly from there is great! On QNX, there are still two manual steps required before a user can get an example running on a target:

      • (re)define the target settings in the pro file:
      qnx  {
          target.path = /tmp/$${TARGET}/bin
          INSTALLS += target
      }
      

      This is required because the current default deployment path is /opt which resides on a read-only partition on most embedded systems and is can be written by the "root" user on the most desktops

      • Add environment vars in the Run settings of the project which would point to the location of the Qt runtime on the target, e.g:
      LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/tmp/qt53_rumtime_vm/lib
      QML2_IMPORT_PATH=/tmp/qt53_rumtime_vm/qml
      QQNX_PHYSICAL_SCREEN_SIZE="150,90"
      QT_PLUGIN_PATH=/tmp/qt53_rumtime_vm/plugins
      QT_QPA_FONTDIR=/tmp/qt53_rumtime_vm/lib/fonts
      

      How those can be eliminated? We should sync a related change with according works to improve deployment on BB10, QNX and in Qt in general
