Well what is going on, when you declare that struct as static is that it's 
tried to be initialised immediately upon the start of application, but there 
are some Qt things, which need to be done beforehand. So you can't make it 
static. Nevertheless, there is nothing really there to loose -- things are 
well with a struct for a class with a single instance. Like this for me:

in class decl.:
-------------------------------------------------
    const struct Icons
    {
      QIcon minus;
      QIcon plus;
      QIcon exit;
      
      Icons();
    } icons;
-------------------------------------------------

in cpp:
-------------------------------------------------
MainWindow::Icons::Icons():
        minus(":/images/minus.png"),
        plus(":/images/plus.png"),
        exit(":/images/exit.png")
{
}
-------------------------------------------------

And it seems to be what I need, at least works this far.
