Please be aware that performance wise, you may have issues. Vista was the first version to require some 3D capability. XP has GL (opengl32.dll), but only a very simple implementation. Most vendors (NVidia, ATI) supplied their own GL driver.
It is my understanding that QtQuick 2 assumes GL. I am not sure what version of GL it requires. I'd be willing to bet that the default driver in XP is insufficient. There may be a raster back end, but I could have sworn that GL was the core reason for the difference between QtQ1 and QtQ2? > Sent: Wednesday, June 10, 2015 at 3:28 PM > From: "Thiago Macieira" <thiago.macie...@intel.com> > To: interest@qt-project.org > Subject: Re: [Interest] Qt5 with qml 2.x on Windows XP... problems? > > On Wednesday 10 June 2015 21:20:05 Guido Seifert wrote: > > Hiya, > > I just started a project in a company, which still has plenty of Windows XP > > machines.
