# The Feature Definition File

By modifying the configured `qconfig.h` file from src/tools, you can define a subset of the full Qt functionality that you wish to be available in your installation. The -qconfig option to configure is used to select the configuration.

Note that such modification is only supported on Qt/Embedded platforms, where reducing the size of Qt is important and the application set is often fixed.

The `qconfig.h` definition file simply defines macros to disable features. Some features are dependent on other features and these dependencies are expressed in `qfeatures.h`.

The available options are:

Macro | Disables | Set automatically by
--- | --- | ---
Images (QImageIO)
QT_NO_IMAGEIO_BMP | Microsoft Bitmap image file format. |
QT_NO_IMAGEIO_PPM | Portable Pixmap image file format. |
