packagins\nsis\Makefile.nmake calls windeployqt-to-nsis.ps1 to create the qt-dll-manifest.nsh file listing all the qt dlls required for the installer.

 

In the script, windeployqt is called to return the list of DLL's and then on Line 23 of the script calls split-path to get the path component of the DLL.  From the error it seems that one of the entries is null.

 

Try this:

 

In a Powershell prompt at your top level source directory:

 

<code>

$env:Path += ";PATH\TO\QT\BIN"

windeployqt --release --no-compiler-runtime --list relative wireshark-qt-release\qtshark.exe

</code>

Hi,

Not sure I got I right:

 

C:\xxx\trunk>powershell

Windows PowerShell

Copyright (C) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

 

PS C:\xxx\trunk> $env:path+="C:\Qt\Qt5.2.1\5.2.1\msvc2012_64\bin"

PS C:\xxx\trunk> windeployqt --release --no-compiler-runtime --list relative wireshark-qt-release\qtshark.exe

The term 'windeployqt' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was

included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

At line:1 char:12

+ windeployqt <<<<  --release --no-compiler-runtime --list relative wireshark-q

t-release\qtshark.exe

    + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (windeployqt:String) [], Command

   NotFoundException

    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

 

Just running the command without parameters and the full path gives

PS C:\xxx\trunk> C:\Qt\Qt5.2.1\5.2.1\msvc2012_64\bin\windeployqt.exe

Please specify the binary or folder.
