It can't be formulated as a platform-independent problem.. The image conversion functions in question for Windows are only applicable to Windows. IIRC there are other image conversion issues that are applicable to OS X but in completely different circumstances. The functions being discussed are for converting BITMAP and ICON handles internal to Windows functions only, in my case, file icon handles for the system's icon for different file types. > > "QPlatformPixmapHandle" with suitable per-platform typedefs or > best-effort approximations are much easier to use in user code > than platform specific #ifdef chains, or worse library additions > to the build system. > > Andre' > _______________________________________________ > Development mailing list > Development@qt-project.org > http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
