This depends a bit on what is in Qt 5 at that time. Currently there are still major changes going on there, with a tendency to break compilation. To my best understanding, Creator was compilable with Qt 5 a week ago, at least on Linux, and it isn't right now, and fixing that is non-trivial. > It won't be really nice if we have the first Qt 5 release and among > the first comments we get is "not even Qt Creator builds there".

As far as I can tell, things like the container changes haven't even been merged yet to Qt 5 proper. When they are in, the display of container data in the debugger _will_ break. This will (hopefully) not affect "compilability", but certainly usability. Maybe someone volunteers to fix that _before_ application developers are "pushed to get their hands dirty" ;-} Andre' _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
