Update OKed (and initial work provided) by adam@..
* General Improvements
* Fixed incorrect behavior of the widget editing mode that
could occur when a form was resized.
* Fixed a crash that could occur when several commands were
redone in one go.
* Enabled MSVC and Borland project generators for the Qt Open Source
edition.
* Ensured that the QMAKE_CC and QMAKE_CXX variables are not defined in
the Xcode project generator to allow distributed (distcc) builds to
work again.

-work around iconv(3) incompatibilities: while NetBSD's iconv() is
probed as GNU iconv (due to its signature), it doesn't support empty
strings as encoding (interpreted as "current locale's encoding" by
GNU iconv). Enable some code which uses nl_langinfo(CODESET) to make
it work as expected.
-update to 4.3.1
changes:
-bugfixes
-Updated the German translation to provide complete coverage of Qt
- Configuration/Compilation
* Fixed OpenBSD and NetBSD build issues.
- Legal
* Added information about the OpenSSL exception to the GPL.
- Documentation and Examples
* Added information about the TS file format used in Linguist.
* Moved platform and compiler support information from
www.trolltech.com into the documentation.
* Added an Accessibility overview document.
* Added new example to show usage of QCompleter with custom tree models.
- Translations
- Added support for the CP949 Korean Codec.
- [138140] The whole Qt source compiles with the QT_NO_CAST_FROM_ASCII
and QT_NO_CAST_TO_ASCII defines and therefore is more robust when
using codecs.
- Added support for HP-UX 11i (Itanium) with the aCC compiler
- Changed dialogs to respond much better to the LanguageChange event.
(i.e. run time translation now works much better.)
- Signals and slots
* [61295] Added Qt::BlockingQueuedConnection connection type, which
waits for all slots to be called before continuing.
* [128646] Ignore optional keywords specified in SIGNAL() and SLOT()
signatures (struct, class, and enum).
* Optimize emitting signals that do not have anything connected to them.
- [121629] Added support for the MinGW/MSYS platform.
- [102293] Added search path functionality (QDir::addSearchPath)
- Almost all widgets are now styleable using Qt Style Sheets.
This is a bug-fix release. It maintains both forward and backward
compatibility (source and binary) with Qt 4.2.0.
- Configuration/Compilation
* Fixed architecture detection on UltraSPARC-T1 systems.
* Fixed compilation on embedded architectures when qreal is not double.
- Documentation
* Completed documentation for "Implementing Atomic Operations",
which is useful for people porting Qt to a new hardware architecture.
- Translations
* Added a new unofficial Portuguese translation courtesy of Helder
Correia.
- Qt Linguist
* Made the columns in the phrasebook resizeable.
- lupdate
* Fixed bug in the .pro parser of lupdate. It should accept backslashes.
* Fixed a severe slowdown in lupdate. (~400x speedup.)
* Fixed traversal of subdirectories.
- moc
* Don't create trigraphs in the generated code for C++ casts.
- uic
* Fixed a bug that generated excessive margins for Q3GroupBox.
maintaining GUI (graphical user interface) applications.
Qt is written in C++ and is fully object-oriented. It has everything you need
to create professional GUI applications. And it enables you to create them
quickly.
Qt is a multi-platform toolkit. When developing software with Qt, you can run
it on the X Window System (Unix/X11) or Microsoft Windows NT and Windows 95/98.
Simply recompile your source code on the platform you want.
Qt cuts down the complexity in implementing large and complex systems. Its
ingenious signal-slot technology enables true component programming.
