out of date - it was based on a.out OBJECT_FMT, and added entries in the
generated PLISTs to reflect the symlinks that ELF packages uses. It also
tried to be clever, and removed and recreated any symbolic links that were
created, which has resulted in some fun, especially with packages which
use dlopen(3) to load modules. Some recent changes to our ld.so to bring
it more into line with other Operating Systems also exposed some cracks.
+ Modify bsd.pkg.mk and its shared object handling, so that PLISTs now contain
the ELF symlinks.
+ Don't mess about with file system entries when handling shared objects in
bsd.pkg.mk, since it's likely that libtool and the BSD *.mk processing will
have got it right, and have a much better idea than we do.
+ Modify PLISTs to contain "ELF symlinks"
+ On a.out platforms, delete any "ELF symlinks" from the generated PLISTs
+ On ELF platforms, no extra processing needs to be done in bsd.pkg.mk
+ Modify print-PLIST target in bsd.pkg.mk to add dummy symlink entries on
a.out platforms
+ Update the documentation in Packages.txt
With many thanks to Thomas Klausner for keeping me honest with this.
Qt 2.2.3 is a bugfix release. It keeps both forward and backward
compatibility (source and binary) with Qt 2.2.2
****************************************************************************
* General *
****************************************************************************
- Platform fixes for Red Hat 7.0, Unixware 7, SCO OpenServer 5.0.5,
LinuxPPC, True64.
- Basic multihead support for MS-Windows 98/2000: Popup windows, tooltips
and What's This? help texts now appear on the correct screen,
QApplication::desktop() is now as big as the virtual screen.
- Documented previously internal QEmbed utility. The tool converts
arbitrary files into C++ code. This is useful for including image
files and other resources directly into your application rather than
loading the data from external files. You find it in qt/tools/qembed.
- X11 only: Fixed font sizes on higher resolution displays. When
asking for a specific point size, you should always receive a font
with an adequate pixel size depending on the dpi value of the
display. This was supposed to work before, but broke for certain cases
on XFree 4.x.
- Many minor bugfixes and small improvements, see detailed lists below.
****************************************************************************
* Designer *
****************************************************************************
- Minor fixes for custom widget handling
- Minor user interfaces fixes
- Fixed uic-generated code for dialogs that are not completely
layouted
- Improved code generation for non-ascii and non-latin1 text
****************************************************************************
* Library *
****************************************************************************
QAction: Deletes generated widgets on the action's destruction
time
QApplication: Cleans thread-pipe on destruction time
Fixed crash when passing 0/0 as argc/argv
QClipboard: MS-Windows only: Try harder to get the unicode contents
from the system clipboard
QComboBox: Fixes for NoInsertion policy
QDir: Gives ';' higher priority than ' ' as a filter separator
QDom: Support for NOTATION and ENTITY declarations was missing.
QFileDialog: MS-Windows only: safer handling of non-existing directories
QFont: X11 only: Fixed font sizes on higher resolution displays.
When asking for a specific point size, you should always
receive a font with an adequate pixel size depending on
the dpi value of the display. This was supposed to work
before, but broke for certain cases on XFree 4.x.
QGl: MS-Windows only: added some missing Q_EXPORTS for using
the OpenGL module in a DLL
QIconView: Fixed icon selection in case icons overlap
Fixed crash when trying to drag items in NoSelection mode
QImage: MS-Windows only: Fixed problems with reading 15/16/32
bits-per-pixel Windows DIBs
QListView: currentChanged() signal in takeItem() is now safe to use
QMainWindow: Small layout fix
QMetaObject: Fixed numClassInfo()
QMotifPlusStyle: Added support for Tristate checkboxes
QPointArray: Avoid overflow if the array gets too big
QPopupMenu: Improved auto-placement
QPrinter: Saves last printer dialog configuration by default
Unix only: a memory leak fixed
QPushButton: Improved popup menu placement
QString: Fixed toDouble() for strings containing non latin1
characters
QTabBar: Optimizations
QTable: Several minor bugfixes including a possible crash fix
QTextCodec: Support for the changed posix charmap tables on
Red Hat 7.0
QToolButton: Improved popup menu placement
QThread: MS-Windows only: minor bugs and race conditions fixed
QUrl: Fixed parser, path can start with a digit
QWidget: Revised lastWindowClosed() signal, it was ocassionally
emitted too often
QWindowsMime: MS-Windows only: Try harder to get unicode contents
QWindowsStyle: Draws disabled radio buttons grayed out
QXml: Fix missing distinction between external parsed and
external unparsed entities.
The reporting of some processing instructions were missing.
****************************************************************************
* Extensions *
****************************************************************************
Xt Extension: Prioritize timers over posted events. This is necessary
to ensure that paintEvents are processed in a timely
manner after QWidget::update is called from a slot that
is connected to a QTimer signal
NS Plugin: Bugfixes and maintainance
****************************************************************************

****************************************************************************
- Meta Object Compiler (moc): Improved namespace support with MSVC.

* Qt/Embedded-specific changes *
****************************************************************************
- The libqt.* library file is now called libqte.* on Qt/Embedded so
you can easily have both Qt/X11 and Qt/Embedded installed on the
same system.
- 4bpp grayscale and 24bpp color is supported.
- Some additional Window Manager styles are provided.
- Setable "desktop" color/image.
- Performance improvements.
