Distributing Win32 Qt applications

From qtnode

Any good Linux user can install an X11 program from the command line. Distributing your application on Mac is easy enough. But Windows users? They're another breed entirely. If you want your application to behave like a good Windows program should, the final step is to provide a convenient distribution package and an automated install wizard.

Unfortunately, there's not much agreement over the best way to do this. Several methods have been developed:

• Win32 Relative Shortcut Stub
• Including a Win32 Installer
• Self-Extracting Installer
