[Qt-interest] FW: What makes an application show a console?

[pmqt71]

under  Windows, try using this main prototype:

int PASCAL WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,LPSTR
lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)
{
...
}

instead of:
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
...
}

this should avoid the creation of the console.
