I'm still on 4.8.6 trying to get some work done, where "work"
is defined as "something other than trying to get Qt to compile".
Here again, my app has two fundamental modes.
1 - Run as a GUI app and show the users plots on the screen
that they can interact with.
2 - Run in batch mode where users can create plot files
in any of my supported formats (PDF, SVG, PNG, WMF, etc.)
This needs to work without access to an X11 Server.
My experience was that I could not get #2 to work
with a QCoreApplication (even though I think it should).
The life saver was
QApplication ( int & argc, char ** argv, bool GUIenabled )
With GUIenabled set to "false".
I see that QApplication in Qt5 has removed that option.
So, how will I do all of the above in Qt5.
