| File Type | Location |
|---|
| Executable | /opt/Qtopia/bin/<appname>/... |
| Description: This is the executable program. Note: It is not appropriate to use the same executable with arguments to modify it's behavior, since only one instance of each application will be run (additional attempts to run the application will merely raise the previous instance). |

|---|
| Library | /opt/Qtopia/lib/<appname>/... |
| Description: Applications may put libraries here as required |
| |
|---|
| Image | /opt/Qtopia/pics/<appname>/*.{png,jpg,svg} |
| Description: Any image files the application needs to use should either be standard built-in images, or be files in this application-specific directory. The files can be referred to using QPixmap(":image/<name>") for pictures belonging to the current application or the global context, and using QPixmap(":image/<appname>/<name>") for pictures belonging to another application context. |
| |
|---|
| Icon | /opt/Qtopia/pics/<appname>/icons/<IconSize>x<IconSize>/*.{png,svg} |
| Description: Any icon files the application needs to use should either be standard built-in icons, or be files in this application-specific directory. The files can be referred to using QIcon(":icon/name") for icons belonging to the current application or the global context, and using or QIcon(":icon/<appname>/<name>") for icons belonging to another application context. |

| |
|---|
| English Online Documentation | /opt/Qtopia/help/html/<appname>-suffixes.html |
| Description: These files provide the English online documentation of the software (the -suffixes is optional). Note that on-line documentation can refer to images under the /opt/Qtopia/pics directory, so you can refer to icons and other images explicitly without duplicating the files. |
| |
|---|
| Online Documentation | /opt/Qtopia/help/language/html/<appname>-suffixes.html |
| Description: These files are the online documentation of the software (the -suffixes is optional), in the language specified. The suffixes are the choice of the application developer, but Qt Extended will automatically connect the Help button in the window decorations to <appname>-widgetname.html if such a file exists, thereby allowing different application windows to have different associated help pages. |
| |
|---|
| Qt plug-ins | /opt/Qtopia/qt_plugins/... |
| Description: These directory contains Qt plug-ins such as the gfx drivers, icon engines or file format plugins. |

| |
|---|
| Temporary Data | /tmp/..., /tmp/qtopia-<QWS ID>/..., /tmp/qt-embedded-<QWS ID>/... |
| Description: All temporary files are expected to be stored under /tmp; typically /tmp is a RAM hosted partition on a device. In particular a directory such as /tmp/qtopia-0/ will be used by Qt Extended application for their temporary files. Note: The ramfs file system should not be used for the /tmp partition as it often incorrectly reports the amount of free space. Instead of using ramfs use tempfs for a RAM hosted /tmp partition.
