Topic: Question about Ready-To-Use - version

Salut Laurent !

On QET download-page for win it says:

Ready-to-use versions are PORTABLE versions: they don't need to be installed!

But when using it, it creates it's configuration in registry ... hmm ...  not really portable!
To be really portable it would be necessary to write the config to a file in sub-dir "conf" in the Ready-To-Use - folder.

Then it would be possible to carry the whole Ready-To-Use - folder to another system and have everything like before. Especially when we think about the near future, when we also ship some fonts with QET.

What do you think, Laurent?
Would it be a big effort to have the configuration in a file for the win Ready-To-Use - version?

Re: Question about Ready-To-Use - version

Hallo plc-user,

I would have to compile the binary twice, which is not a problem on this machine, about 30 seconds to compile it in x86_64 and adapt my packaging script.
https://github.com/qelectrotech/qelectr … Windows.sh

An effort I'll be able to make when I'm much better...not these months!

It could be more annoying if we later need to package Windows versions in arm64, powerful machines with lots of cores and memory in arm64 are very expensive...
I don't know if my mac mini M2 or my raspberry pi 5 (8GB) can help me for that!

Btw, on this Raspberry PI 5 with BookWorm  (Raspberry Pi OS) I saw that QET 0.9 was very fast to launch (~0.30 seconds) and seems as fluid as my workstation even on large projects, in the short time I tested it. Only with official sd card!

18:40:18.873 Info: Count All Elements in collections = 8483 Elements 
18:40:19.157 Info: Elements collection reload 
18:40:19.604 Info: Elements collection finished to be loaded in 0.446 seconds

Edit: 10 mn to compile QET on my raspberry pi 5 (8GB).
