QT 4.5 Released, Plus New IDE and Analysis Tool

Posted by timothy on from the cute-train-is-the-q-train dept.

stoolpigeon writes "QT 4.5 has arrived and is now available for download. This new release is quite significant due to licensing changes that now make it simpler to use QT in a wider range of products without cost as well as a number of new features. The latest version of Webkit is now integrated into the product. Qt 4.5 sees the introduction of QtBenchLib, a new component to make measuring the performance of the toolkit and checking for regressions easier. Mac developers who use Qt will note a major reworking of 4.5 on the Mac, now providing 64-bit support. QT Creator is a new IDE that looks to have combined a number of previously separate tools. And there is much more."

    You mean other than in the first fucking paragraph.

    You know the paragraph that is about nothing except the addition of LGPL to the licenses.

    The actual news item a little while ago about that change wasn't enough? For how long does it have to be mentioned every time QT is?

    Well, you forgot to paste the next paragraph:

    To help faciliate the continued development of Qt Jambi, Qt Software will host and help maintain a community-driven Qt Jambi implementation.

    So it is not completely ditched, it relies on the community to maintain it.

    You are confusing QT with KDE
