The fact is that for a lot of use cases V8 is already there. It's used by Qt 
Quick and Qt WebKit. A dependency on PCRE, in particular, would be added solely 
for the sake of QRegExp.

The major concern raised, I think, are applications that want to depend *only* 
on QtCore. Could we have a QT_NO_V8 #define that foregoes QRegExp altogether? 
Could we package a PCRE-based solution as a separate add-on for those 
developers that both want *only* QtCore *and* still require regular expression 
support?

Anyway, these are all open questions.

Cheers,


João
