There is ABI tracker, maintained by Andrey Ponomarenko, that tracks ABI changes between Qt releases: https://abi-laboratory.pro/tracker/timeline/qt/ However, it seems like QtWebEngine is not tracked. It should be feasible to set up dedicated instance of ABI tracker for Qt CI and track changes in braches right after (or even before) they are merged. > > Regards, > -- > Sérgio Martins | [email protected] | Senior Software Engineer > Klarälvdalens Datakonsult AB, a KDAB Group company > Tel: Sweden (HQ) +46-563-540090, USA +1-866-777-KDAB(5322) > KDAB - The Qt, C++ and OpenGL Experts > _______________________________________________ > Development mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development -- Regards, Konstantin _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
