The situation is this that our client wants that there should be three diff
downloads, each for windows, linux and mac os. The client has forced us to
use the C++ cuz he doesnt wasnt the application to use *anything* extra that
would have to be downloaded by the people who would use this application. So
we cant use C# cuz that would require mono or .net redistributeables to be
downloaded where ever the application needs to be run (although we used C#
for the prototype).

If I use Qt4 and build application using it, will that require any extra
thing to be downloaded and installed?
