<p> TQt is a multiplatform GUI toolkit, so almost the entire API is the
same on all platforms and window systems. If you wish to use
platform-specific features, and still maintain a platform-independent
source tree, you should protect the platform-specific code using the
appropriate <tt>#ifdef</tt> statements (see below).

Notes</a>. For information on distributing TQt applications, see

<h2> TQt/X11
</h2>
<a name="1"></a><p> When compiling for this platform, the macro <tt>Q_WS_X11</tt> is defined.
<p> <em>Not documented here. Please contact Trolltech Technical Support if you have queries.</em>
<p> <center><img src="dependencies.png" alt="TQt/X11 Dependencies"></center> 
<p> Note: You must compile with <em>both</em> Xft and XRender support to get
alpha transparency support for pixmaps and images.  Configuring with
XRender support only is not enough.
<p> <a name="win"></a>
<h2> TQt/Windows
</h2>
<a name="2"></a><p> When compiling for this platform, the macro <tt>Q_WS_WIN</tt> is defined.
<p> <em>Not documented here. Please contact Trolltech Technical Support if you have queries.</em>
<p> <h3> Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Deployment Issues
</h3>
<a name="2-1"></a><p> Executables compiled with Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 require
a manifest file that points to the C and C++ runtime libraries that
TQt and the application itself depend on. The manifest file is
automatically generated for you, but it always needs to be located
in the same directory as the application executable.
<p> It is important to remember to deploy the manifest file when
deploying an application.
<p> <b>Note:</b>
If you don't want to deploy your application with the .manifest file,
you can embed the manifest in the executable as a resource with the
<tt>mt</tt> command (distributed with Visual Studio 2005).
<p> If you have further problems, please see the MSDN document,
"Side-by-side Assemblies Reference".

<h2> TQt/Mac OS X
</h2>
<a name="3"></a><p> When compiling for this platform, the macro <tt>Q_WS_MACX</tt> is defined.

<h2> TQt/Embedded
</h2>
<a name="4"></a><p> When compiling for this platform, the macro <tt>Q_WS_QWS</tt> is defined
(the window system is literally the TQt Window System).
