He means "a build done using the configure switch -developer-build". That switch is meant for developers developing Qt itself. It does: -DQT_BUILD_INTERNAL (adds extra code and exports for unit testing) -Werror -headerscheck enable "private_tests" (tests that require private API) -prefix $PWD -debug Unless you mean to develop Qt and submit contributions, you should not use this switch. The first four effects are really strong and will cause code to become slower. The compilation time should also increase by as much as 33%. Also note the -Werror: if you get a warning-turned-error problem, you're expected to submit the fix to the warning. If you're just using Qt, you should stay away from this switch. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
