Zzzz application readme file (for Zzzz version 1.2.0)
The Zzzz is application for scheduled computer switch off.
The Zzzz is Windows application with GUI based on Qt framework and shutdown
procedure using WinAPI.
Function:
User can set up computer shutdown time. The computer will be switched off
on demanded time.
The shutdown countdown can be interrupted before its finalization.
The application informs about oncoming computer shutdown two and one minutes
before countdown finalization.
Warning:
All unsaved work of running applications will be lost when computer shutdown
will be processed.
Note:
The Zzzz is really simple application so there is no installer or some
similar things. It is sufficient to copy the Zzzz application to some
directory (for example to c:\Program Files\Zzzz) and add shortcuts to
desktop or/and to Start/Programs...
Note:
Mind the antivirus software. For example an Avast antivirus needs to make
exception for real and successful run of the Zzzz application.
Known problems:
If I run the Zzzz application built on Win 7 on Win XP there is problem
with application's icons - no icon in About dialog and no application icon
after minimalization to tray. The same problem is with a Zzzz built
on Win XP and ran on Win 7.
So there are two releases - for Win 7 and for Win XP.
Used components:
Qt framework for GUI (last compilation with Qt 4.8.2, Qt Creator 2.5.2,
MinGW 4.4.0).
WinAPI for computer shutdown procedure.
Important parts:
Zzzz.exe ... runnable application
libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll, mingwm10.dll, QtCore4.dll, QtGui4.dll ... Qt framework
libraries; They are important if you have not installed Qt runtime
on your computer.
Tested on:
Windows XP
Windows 7
Not tested:
Windows Vista, Windows 98
