In the cases where WinRT's native API is wildly different than Win32, we can use a new CPP file. Apart from a cleaner codebase, I don't see much benefit in ripping out code before Qt 6 - leaving it there allows the community to continue trying to support Windows XP. -Andrew _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
