Introduction
This is a guide to write a Qt program on one virtual PC, and deploy and debug it on another virtual PC. As a first step, both virtual PC's are running linux. this guide assumes a windows 7 host system, but this should work on each platform that can run Virtualbox.
Setting up the virtual machines
download needed files
Download Virtual box and VirtualBox Extension Pack from this site: http://dlc-cdn.sun.com/virtualbox/4.3.28/index.html This tutorial has been tested with virtualbox 4.3.28. Next download Ubuntu from this site: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop This tutorial has been tested with 15.04 32bit.
Install Virtualbox
In windows, open VirtualBox-4.3.28-100309-Win.exe, and accept the defaults. Also accept the 4 prompts about device software installation. Then install Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.3.28-100309.vbox-extpack by double-clicking the file. Then click install, scroll down the PUEL, and click 'I agree'
Create the virtual machines, with a virtual network between them
Install Ubuntu on both virtual machines
Master
This PC will be running the Qt IDE. This is where you will write the Qt program.
Target
This PC will be the target. This is where the Qt program will run. This PC has almost nothing installed, no IDE, no compilers, just a runtime
