+
+ \brief The QtOpenGL module offers classes that make it easy to
+ use OpenGL in Qt applications.
+
+ OpenGL is a standard API for rendering 3D graphics. OpenGL only
+ deals with 3D rendering and provides little or no support for GUI
+ programming issues. The user interface for an OpenGL application
+ must be created with another toolkit, such as Motif on the X
+ platform, Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) under Windows, or Qt
+ on both platforms.
+
+ \note OpenGL is a trademark of Silicon Graphics, Inc. in
+ the United States and other countries.
+
+ The Qt OpenGL module makes it easy to use OpenGL in Qt applications.
+ It provides an OpenGL widget class that can be used just like any
+ other Qt widget, except that it opens an OpenGL display buffer where
+ you can use the OpenGL API to render the contents.
+
+ To include the definitions of the module's classes, use the
+ following directive:

+
+ To link against the module, add this line to your \l qmake \c
+ .pro file:
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_qtopengl.qdoc 1
+
+ The Qt OpenGL module is implemented as a platform-independent Qt/C++
+ wrapper around the platform-dependent GLX (version 1.3 or later),
+ WGL, or AGL C APIs. Although the basic functionality provided is very
+ similar to Mark Kilgard's GLUT library, applications using the Qt
+ OpenGL module can take advantage of the whole Qt API for
+ non-OpenGL-specific GUI functionality.
+
+ The QtOpenGL module is part of the \l{Qt Full Framework Edition} and the
+ \l{Open Source Versions of Qt}. It is available on Windows, X11, and Mac OS X.
+ \l{Qt for Embedded Linux} supports OpenGL ES (OpenGL for Embedded Systems).
+ To be able to use the OpenGL API in \l{Qt for Embedded Linux}, it must be
+ integrated with the Q Window System (QWS). See the
+ \l{Qt for Embedded Linux and OpenGL} documentation for details.

+ \brief The QtOpenVG module is a plugin that provides support for
+ OpenVG painting.
+
+ OpenVG is a standard API from the
+ \l{http://www.khronos.org/openvg}{Khronos Group} for accelerated
+ 2D vector graphics that is appearing in an increasing number of
+ embedded devices.
+
+ OpenVG support can be enabled by passing the \c{-openvg} option
+ to configure. It is assumed that the following qmake variables
+ are set to appropriate values in the qmake.conf file for your
+ platform:
+
+ \list
+ \o QMAKE_INCDIR_OPENVG
+ \o QMAKE_LIBDIR_OPENVG
+ \o QMAKE_LIBS_OPENVG
+ \endlist
+
+ Most OpenVG implementations are based on EGL, so the following
+ variables may also need to be set:
+
+ \list
+ \o QMAKE_INCDIR_EGL
+ \o QMAKE_LIBDIR_EGL
+ \o QMAKE_LIBS_EGL
+ \endlist
+
+ See \l{qmake Variable Reference} for more information on these variables.
+
+ Two kinds of OpenVG engines are currently supported: EGL based,
+ and engines built on top of OpenGL such as
+ \l{http://sourceforge.net/projects/shivavg}{ShivaVG}.
+ EGL based engines are preferred.
+
+ Once the graphics system plugin has been built and installed,
+ applications can be run as follows to use the plugin:
+
+ \code
+ app -graphicssystem OpenVG
+ \endcode
+
+ If ShivaVG is being used, then substitute \c ShivaVG instead of
+ \c OpenVG in the line above.

+
+ \brief The QtDBus module is a Unix-only library that you can use
+ to make Inter-Process Communication using the \l {Introduction to
+ D-Bus} {D-Bus} protocol.
+
+ Applications using the QtDBus module can provide services to
+ other, remote applications by exporting objects, as well as use
+ services exported by those applications by placing calls and
+ accessing properties.
+
+ The QtDBus module provides an interface that extends the Qt \l
+ {signalsandslots.html}{Signals and Slots} mechanism, allowing one
+ to connect to a signal emitted remotely as well as to connect a
+ local signal to remote slot.
+
+ To use this module, use the following code in your application:
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_qtdbus.qdoc 0
+
+ If you're using qmake to build your application, you can add this
+ line to your .pro file to make it link against the QtDBus
+ libraries:
+
+ \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_qtdbus.qdoc 1
+
+ \note The source code for this module is located in the \c{src/qdbus}
+ directory. When installing Qt from source, this module is built when Qt's
+ tools are built.
+
+ See the \l {Introduction to D-Bus} page for detailed information on
+ how to use this module.
