That I can agree with, but this goes back to the suggestion of our own smart QObject pointer classes. In non-compatibility mode, a function that adopts the passed object should only accept from another smart pointer. If you pass a naked pointer, it should reject and force you to clearly state that you know what you're doing. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel System Software Products _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development
