No removals have happened without warning. Please stop the FUD. (who am I kidding? you're not going to stop) All removals were announced by way of deprecation messages, most of which also include the new API that replaces. We've tried to deprecate the API as early as possible; in the worst case, 5.15 should produce the warning so you know the problem and can port away before making the jump to Qt 6, while the application is still otherwise working. The ones that have no replacement are so because the API in question is flawed for some reason or another. If there are legitimate use-cases for the API that was removed, say so. And please state what problem was trying to be solved, not simply how you were using the API. Often, the solution is not a 1:1 match to the removed and flawed functionality, but something that can help accomplish the same goal. As shown by the example of the KWallet CLI, there may be a much better and much simpler solution once the need is understood. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel DPG Cloud Engineering _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/interest
