<h1 align=center>QEmbed - File and Image Embedder</h1><br clear="all">
<p>
The QEmbed tool, found in <tt>qt/tools/qembed</tt>
converts arbitrary files into C++ code.
This is useful for including image files
and other resources directly into your application rather than loading the data
from external files.
<p>
QEmbed can also generate uncompressed versions of
images that can be included directly into your application, thus avoiding
both the external file and the need to parse the image file format. This
is useful for small images such as icons for which compression is not
a great gain.
<p>
<h2>Usage</h2>
<pre>
qembed <i>[ general-files ] [ </i>--images<i> image-files ]</i>
</pre>
<p>
<dl>
<dt><tt><i>general-files</i></tt>
<dd>These files can be any type of file.
<dt><tt>--images <i>image-files</i></tt>
<dd>These files must be in image formats supported by Qt.
</dl>
<p>
<h2>Output</h2>
The output from QEmbed is a C++ header file which you should
include in a C++ source file. In that file, you should make a wrapper
function that suites your application. Two inline functions are provided,
and your wrapper function could just call one of these, or you can
implement your own. To use the inline functions in the simplest way:
<p>
<pre>
#include "generated_qembed_file.h"
<p>
// Just call the generated function
// "name" is the original image filename WITHOUT the extension
QImage myFindImage(const char* name)
{
return qembed_findImage(name);
}
<p>
// Just call the generated function
// "name" is the original filename WITH the extension
QByteArray myFindData(const char* name)
{
return qembed_findData(name);
}
</pre>
<p>
Alternatively, look at the output from QEmbed and write a function more
tailored to the needs of your application.
