[Interest] QGLWidget and OGL version 4.3 functions?

2013-09-26 Thread Thomas Meyer
Hi, is it possible to render in a QGLWidget with the OGL 4.3 functions? If so, how can I call the functions? If not, will it be in the future (is it planned)? Thanks, Thomas ___ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.

In Nokia-period, Qt gained (cot complet list) : * LGPL licence * creating Qt Quick for best mobile support * creating LightHouse (which become QPA) for best portability In final, I like actual Qt. I like Qt notorious, open gouvernance, mobile portability, future of Qt, etc. What care about Nokia ?

Frank, et al.: My *OPINION* is that Nokia sucked a lot of the energy out of Qt as they tried to bend it into being a mobile platform. In the process, the desktop (and my own area of interest, the embedded world) was greatly forgotten. The only thing that saved Qt from being sucked into

Hello List! This whole Elop thing got me thinking about the history of Qt and Nokia. Nothing's perfect, of course, and everything's a mixed bag, but, all in all, do people think Nokia's involvement with Qt ended up helping Qt or not? I started using Qt after Nokia acquired Trolltech (2008? 2009?

All: Wow! I would have been happy to run Nokia into the ground for a mere €10.0m (plus a nice apartment in Helsinki). Heck, there's even a fair chance I wouldn't have crashed the corporation (or lit the oil rig on fire or anything); I would have just dictated a wholesale switch from Sym

It's used exactly for that purpose -- storing large amounts of temporary data which doesn't need super-low access times (so there's no need to waste RAM). You can do whatever you like with that data, just don't close the file. And, to be honest, I don't see any [good] reason to close a temporary fi

Hi Ramesh, In short they are available under LGPL. I think http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/licensing.html might help to answer further question. Also just about every file has a header stating its license. FYI there are quite a few more licenses employed by various parts of Qt. -- Alex

Hi Thiago, Then I don't see the point of QTemporaryFile... You write some data and can't do anything with it? What are the legacy uses of it? - Open the file with a QFile for reading. Such use would be a large buffer we do not want to keep in memory. But according to what you said, it must be do
