You need to include the compat.qdocconf + file for compatibility reasons; this is further explained in the + \l {QDoc Compatibility} section. + + \bold {To resolve the actual links to Qt classes, the + mini-project's \c .qdocconf file needs to assign a value to the \l + indexes variable; \c $QTDIR/doc/html/qt.index makes sure that you + always use the updated index file for the Qt documentation.} + + The only disadvantages with this approach are the extra file that + QDoc has to generate and the time it takes to do so.
