- Signing on Windows CE.
-
-Windows CE provides a security mechanism to ask the user to confirm
-that he wants to use an application/library, which is unknown to the
-system. This process gets repeated for each dependency of an
-application, meaning each library the application links to, which is
-not recognized yet.
-
-To simplify this process you can use signatures and certificates. A
-certificate gets installed on the device and each file which is
-signed with the according certificate can be launched without the
-security warning.
-
-In case you want to use signatures for your project written in Qt,
-configure provides the -signature option. You need to specify the
-location of the .pfx file and qmake adds the signing step to the
-build rules.
-
-If you need to select a separate signature for a specific project,
-or you only want to sign this single project, you can use the
-"SIGNATURE_FILE = foo.pfx" rule inside the project file.
-
-The above decribed rules apply for command line makefiles as well as
-Visual Studio projects generated by qmake.
-
-Microsoft usually ships development signatures inside the SDK packages.
-You can find them in the Tools subdirectory of the SDK root folder.
-
-Example:
-
-1. calling configure with signing enabled:
-configure.exe -platform win32-msvc2005 -xplatform wincewm50pocket-msvc2005
--signature C:\some\path\SDKSamplePrivDeveloper.pfx
-
-2. using pro file to specify signature
-[inside .pro file]
-...
-TARGET = foo
-
-wince*: {
- SIGNATURE_FILE = somepath\customSignature.pfx
-}
-...
