Its QTBUG-27765 QSharedMemory loses the error condition of a failed creation on windows
You commented in oct 2012 Treating this as a bug. It has 3 Votes and 4 watches. I provided a patch as attachment, 2 years ago, nothing happened. The bug is was introduced in 4.8 and fixed , accidentally i assume by moving code , in qt 5. Its all about setting error string can reset GetLastError if heap allocation occurs. There is also • QTBUG-27744 which is possibly a duplicate and this stackoverlow discussion http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13120374/qsharedmemory-inconsistent-behaviour-in-windows This bug is imho serious as two apps accessing a shred memory cannot detect the case that they are second which should use the shared memory and not initialize it. Regards, Gunnar PS.: the no error in case of already exist when creating vanished in qt 5 but there are other methods which still would return no error in case of error. > I've submitted three dozen commits to QtNetwork for Qt 5.5/5.6 improving a > lot > of things and even adding new features. > > I've rewritten the QtDBus internals (commit count around 20 now) and they > should land in 5.5. > > Maybe you don't see those improvements because they aren't UI.
