Description
This is not necessarily a Symbain bug. But Symbian and WinCE are the only platforms where this may be relevant.
QtGui contains loads of resources. This is the list of qrc_*.o files that are linked into an armv2 urel build of QtGui.dll:
| Object file | Size (bytes) |
|---|---|
| qrc_qmessagebox.o | 10,844 |
| qrc_qprintdialog.o | 42,008 |
| qrc_qstyle.o | 337,160 |
| qrc_symbianresources.o | 16,260 |
337,160 bytes just for qstyle! And since this is nearly exclusively full of PNG files, it won't really be compressed in the qt.sis package.
1) Do we need all of the PNG files in the style on Symbian? And what about the resources for the qprintdialog? QtSymbian does not have a print dialog.
2) Why are these PNG files in Qt resources? They are loaded into ram just to be uncompressed by the application anyway/ For Symbian we may deploy these files as files in the Qt.sis package, saving lots of ram.
I attached the .o files in question.
