[Qt-interest] Unable to use .rc file for application icon.

[Oliver Demetz]

Hmmm, for me this works.

Seems like your icon file is invalid.

Have a look there:

and to the tool linked on the first site:

I used this just today to follow your problem and for me it worked 
immediately.

Regards,
Oliver
