| Qt 4.3.2 is a bug-fix release. It maintains both forward and backward |
| compatibility (source and binary) with Qt 4.3.0 and Qt 4.3.1. |
| |
| The Qt version 4.3 series is binary compatible with the 4.2.x, 4.1.x and |
| 4.0.x series. Applications compiled for Qt 4.0, 4.1 or 4.2 will continue to |
| run with Qt 4.3. |
