So, in summary, we need to discover a new way to ease porting of Qt4 QML apps that use these classes to Qt5 (for platforms and apps that don't want to ship the whole widgets module for just a few silly classes). Where would this work happen? Would such a compatibility module (Qt add-on?) have a chance of residing in Qt5 upstream, or should it be an ad hoc project shipped independently? Now if we are indeed forking QSIM, it creates a good opportunity to fix problems in it, like making setRoleNames public. Or making it more convenient to use from QML in other ways. _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
