| Qt 4.7.2 is a bug-fix release. It maintains both forward and backward |
| compatibility (source and binary) with Qt 4.7.0. For more details, |
| refer to the online documentation included in this distribution. The |
| documentation is also available online: |
| |
| http://qt.nokia.com/doc/4.7 |
| |
| The Qt version 4.7 series is binary compatible with the 4.6.x series. |
| Applications compiled for 4.6 will continue to run with 4.7. |

| **************************************************************************** |
| * Platform Specific Changes * |
| **************************************************************************** |
| |
| Qt for Linux/X11 |
| ---------------- |
| |
| - [QTBUG-15008] Fix broken prefix setting in configure when EPOCROOT shell |
| variable is set. |
| |
| Qt for Windows |
| -------------- |
| |
| - QtQuick |
| * [QTBUG-16885] QDeclarativeEngine::addImportPath() did not work if the |
| drive letter is in lowercase. |
| * [QTBUG-17360] Make sure $QTDIR/plugins/qmldebugging/tcpserver.dll is |
| found in windows release builds. |
| |
| Qt for Mac OS X |
| --------------- |
| |
| - [QTBUG-13772] Returning form fullscreen mode causes assertion failure. |
| - [QTBUG-14023] Added missing plugins to debug-libs package. |
| - [QTBUG-14420] Switching from an application with undocked widgets hid the |
| application. |
| - [QTBUG-15638] Fixed incorrect QComboBox drop-down menu Z-ordering. |
| - [QTBUG-15666] Fixed crash when closing QFontDialog::getFont() dialog before |
| its event loop finished. |
| - [QTBUG-16279] Fixed deadlock in QSyntaxHighlighter::highlightBlock. |
| |
| Qt for Symbian |
| -------------- |
| |
| - Multimedia |
| * [QTBUG-17040] Prevent menu and native title pane area popping up when |
| setting fullscreen mode off during video playback. |
| - Packaging changes |
| * [QTBUG-17399] Remove sqlite3 from Qt SIS for S60 3.2 and 5.0 to allow |
| Nokia Content Signing, which doesn't permit sis files to have other |
| sis files embedded inside. |
| - Paging changes |
| * [QT-3503] Remove PAGED keyword from all Qt-based binaries for |
| MMP-based build systems (abld, SBSv2 (a.k.a. Raptor)). |
| This changes the code paging field in the Symbian (E32Image) header |
| from "paged" to "default". Thus it is left to the configuration |
| of the particular device whether paging is used for the binary or |
| not. All devices that support code paging should have it turned |
| on (the value is stored in the HAL, so can be checked using eg. |
| fshell); data paging may or may not be turned on depending on the |
| device characteristics. Leaving both code and data paging as |
| "default" means that any limitations in the device (eg. around |
| flash wear) can be controlled by that device by disabling the |
| appropriate types of paging rather than being forced by the binary |
| (which may be deployed to several different devices with different |
| characteristics). |
| - Phonon MMF backend |
| * [QTBUG-11436] Added a MediaObject property which allows the client to |
| specify which Internet Access Point should be used for streaming. |

| crash on Symbian devices. |

| symbian.conf. |
| * [QTBUG-16172] Use relative include instead of absolute in default |
| qmake.conf. |
| * [QTBUG-16221] Fix libinfixed usage in Symbian when def files are used. |
| * [QTBUG-16261] Fix infinite loop in qmake when reading malformed .ts files. |
