Hi, Does anyone care about the ActiveQt module for Qt5? A problem with this module is that it doesn't have any autotests. I can run some on the examples, but I don't really know what they're supposed to do, or how to use them to exercise relevant codepaths.
The main reason I'm asking is because ActiveQt has code to generate meta-objects at runtime, but the meta-object version it generates is old. For Qt5 it would be good to get rid of support for "Qt4" meta-objects (revisions <= 6), but this necessitates that we update existing "homegrown" meta-object generators to generate the latest and greatest version (will be 7 initially for Qt5). ActiveQt could be ported to use QMetaObjectBuilder to generate the meta-object, but that's a non-trivial refactoring that scares me due to the lack of autotests. Or, the ActiveQt meta-object generator could be patched to generate a newer version -- a much smaller change. But that means we have to do that every time the QtCore (moc) revision is bumped in the future (which won't be terribly often, but it's still a hassle, especially in the case of ActiveQt which looks to be ... inactive at the moment).
