Re: [Interest] QMAKE_COPY not used anymore for files in INSTALLS. Workaround?

2018-09-25 Thread Olivier B.
This does not seem to be the case. If i try to qinstall an executable that is on a samba share, and currently locked because the result of make install is being run, qinstall fails with "Error copying A to B: Destination already exists" (this error is after the remove() of previous destination file

I've been continuing to plug away at this problem as time allows. Recently, I determined that during the lengthy resumes, one and sometimes two threads are using 100% cpu. One of those threads is always thread 1 as reported by gdb. Whenever I stop the app and look, that thread is always in __epo

[Interest] Qt win/wip Branch of qtconnectivity

2018-09-25 Thread KUNCHERIA KURUVILLA
Hi, I need to use a Qt Bluetooth module on a windows 10 platform (Not WinRT) and using mingw32 compiler. I understand that the work in progress branch win/wip is suitable for this requirement. It would be helpful if someone could tell me if it is safe to use this branch. I have checked out the bra

Exactly, they already have Xamarin, I don't any real advantage fro them to buy Qt, Microsoft prefer their C# as a cross platform anyway. That would be a huge surprise and a waste of money that doesn't add any real value. And if they buy out Qt, I don't see why the open source part of it would not r

Considering that when MS bought Xamarin they put it under MIT, I'd wager that if they ever happen to buy TQTC, they would certainly do the same with Qt. On 9/25/18 1:29 PM, Jason H wrote: There's a suicide pact with the community that if Qt ever stops being updated, that it is relicensed unde

There's a suicide pact with the community that if Qt ever stops being updated, that it is relicensed under BSD. I believe that "stops being updated" means failing to release two dot (x.y) releases a year. It is relatively foggy in my find, but dates back to the GNOME competitive days and I think

[Interest] When Microsoft comes to purchase Qt what will be the outcome?

2018-09-25 Thread Henry Skoglund
Hi, while I am a very happy Qt user, I have this fear that Microsoft will knock on Qt's door with a boatload of money. Being old and having gone through some bad experiences with Microsoft, I was one of those who left GitHub for GitLab this summer. But when the bell tolls for Qt, I don't see a
