Hi, Qt Creator often depends on important bug fixes inside qt. Even for us working on Qt Creator all day, it was hard to keep track on the recommended qt version to use for compiling creator. On top of that Creator would sometimes depend on features that were not released with any qt version.
Thus after some internal discussions, we agreed on the following policy: Qt Creator releases should be compiled against the latest Qt release. Any exceptions need to be announced and explained on this mailing list. Obviously once a Qt Creator release is out, the at the time of release latest Qt release is the minimum version, later versions should work. To explain with a example, under the new policy: Qt Creator 2.2 minimum qt version would have been qt 4.7.3 and the recommend version for the master branch would be qt 4.7.3. But since life is great, we start with a exception: Due to important changes in qdoc, the right branch for both 2.2 and master is the qt 4.7 branch. daniel -- Daniel Teske Software Engineer Nokia, Qt Development Frameworks Nokia gate5 GmbH Firmensitz: Invalidenstr. 117, 10115 Berlin, Germany Registergericht: Amtsgericht Charlottenburg, Berlin: HRB 106443 B Umsatzsteueridentifikationsnummer: DE 812 845 193 Geschäftsführer: Dr. Michael Halbherr, Karim Tähtivuori _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt.nokia.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
