Of course, I know that it's a very poor protection as it is just compression so everything can be easily extracted, but that's actually all I need. I do not intend to protect the code from anyone, just from those copypasters who take whole portions of other people's projects (or even whole applications) and use as their own without crediting the source or contacting the author and just asking. Some time ago I had my entire QML app copied this way and released in Nokia store (with just some colors changed) and since then I use resources. People who copy others' work this way usually can't code too much themselves (and that's why they copy) so they usually don't know how to extract from the resource, either. And even if they know, at least it takes some effort (surely more than just copying a .qml file) - I mean if they don't have time to contact the author and just ask for permission then at least they'll spend that t ime on extracting and decompressing from the resource :-) That's my goal - to force such people to make some more effort than Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V ;-) It enhances their skills, so it's quite an educational attempt - maybe one day they'll start writing apps themselves. That's why I use Qt resource rather than some more sophisticated protection - for the type of persons I want to protect it against it is quite sufficient, and from other types of people I do not need to protect it, nor do I have time to do it.

I know that it's a poor protection as it is just compression so it can be easily decompressed and extracted, but I guess it is enough for those who copy stuff like this, as it's usually people who can't code too much themselves (or else they wouldn't need to copy simple stuff), so it is doubtful that they'd know how to decompress and extract from the binary. And even if they know, at least it takes some more effort than Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V - I mean if they don't bother to contact the author and ask, at least they'll need to spend time on extracting it from resource, which for me is a sufficient trade off ;-) I know that better protection solutions exist, but I do not have time (nor actually the need) to use them And, like you mentioned, I'm not sure if I'd like the idea of people being able to modify the app on the fly while it still shows my name as an author...

[SailfishDevel] Path to main qml in resource file - not found whatever I try
Hi guys, I've put all my qml files into a resource file and I did NOT include the qml folder in the rpm. PROBLEM: what path should I use in the main.cpp file to point to the main qml file in the resource? SailfishApp::pathTo(qml/main.qml) returns /usr/share/myapp/qml/main.qml - not found SailfishApp::pathTo(qrc:/qml/main.qml) returns /usr/share/myapp/qrc/qml/main.qml - not found SailfishApp::pathTo(qrc:///qml/main.qml) returns /usr/share/myapp/qrc:/qml/main.qml - not found and so on. So it stubbornly tries to locate it in the (missing) qml folder, not in the resource. I'm out of ideas. RESOURCES += \ myapp.qrc is included in the .pro file and all files are in it. Am I missing something else? Please help! Bolek ___ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list

Re: [SailfishDevel] Path to main qml in resource file - not found whatever I try
I've just managed to build rpm without the freakin' qml folder, but in order
to do that I additionally needed:
- manually edit Makefile and remove qml_install and qml_uninstall
- in .specs file remove /usr/share/myappand %{_datadir}/%{name}/qml
lines
Don't mean to be rude or something, but it is seriously SICK to have to do such
things to exclude a folder that is in a resource and thus it is no longer
needed. In Qt4.8 all I needed to do was to comment out one line
(DEPLOYMENTFOLDER) in .pro file, and on BB10 I just need to exclude asset in
bar-descriptor.xml.

I usually do this by renaming the qml folder, create a new qml folder,
and create en empty qml file in the folder (otherwise the deploy fails).
This changes the path to files included in the resource, so they have to
be added again.
