Dear sailors Please, add to FAQ a guide on how to *update* the application icon or maybe make deployment process handle it if possible.
I was trying to update the icon for my app, I just couldn't figure it out, was blaming my not exactly default project structure (I use src/tests folders), uninstalling packages via zypper, manually deleting files in the emulator, rebooting emulator, even reinstalling SDK. What was most frustrating was that some tricks worked sometimes and sometimes they didn't. In the end I figured the procedure that sort of works most of the time: 1. Stop your app 2. Uninstall package with zypper 3. Restart emulator 4. Clean your project 5. Rebuild and run .. and sometimes it still doesn't seem to work for the first time. I might be missing something real simple, but so the other developers probably. It would be great if you could add instructions on how to update the icon probably or if you could make Qt Creator handle it on its own somehow. Best regards, Artem. P.S. What if published application decides to upgrade its icon. Will the user have the same issues after the update? What I was seeing is not even the old icon staying in place, there was no icon at all. Hopefully end users won't experience it. -- Artem Marchenko http://agilesoftwaredevelopment.com http://twitter.com/AgileArtem
