Qt 4.7.2 is a bug-fix release. It maintains both forward and backward compatibility (source and binary) with Qt 4.7.0. For more details, refer to the online documentation included in this distribution. The documentation is also available online: http://qt.nokia.com/doc/4.7 The Qt version 4.7 series is binary compatible with the 4.6.x series. Applications compiled for 4.6 will continue to run with 4.7. Some of the changes listed in this file include issue tracking numbers corresponding to tasks in the Qt Bug Tracker or the Merge Request queue of the public source repository. Qt Bug Tracker: http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com Merge Request: http://qt.gitorious.org **************************************************************************** * General * **************************************************************************** New features ------------ - SomeClass, SomeOtherClass * New classes for foo, bar and baz Optimizations ------------- - Optimized foo in QSomeClass * See list of Important Behavior Changes below **************************************************************************** * Library * **************************************************************************** QtCore ------ - foo * bar QtGui ----- - QWidget * [QTMOBILITY-645] Send WinIdChange event when winId is set to zero. The window handle of a native widget may be set to zero in two situations: (i) temporarily, during reparenting and (ii) during widget destruction. Previously, no WinIdChange event was sent in either of these cases; now, it is sent in both cases.

Raptor)). This changes the code paging field in the Symbian (E32Image) header from "paged" to "default". Thus it is left to the configuration of the particular device whether paging is used for the binary or not. All devices that support code paging should have it turned on (the value is stored in the HAL, so can be checked using eg. fshell); data paging may or may not be turned on depending on the device characteristics. Leaving both code and data paging as "default" means that any limitations in the device (eg. around flash wear) can be controlled by that device by disabling the appropriate types of paging rather than being forced by the binary (which may be deployed to several different devices with different characteristics). - Phonon MMF backend * [QTBUG-11436] Added a MediaObject property which allows the client to specify which Internet Access Point should be used for streaming. - QNetworkProxyFactory * [QTBUG-13857] Added systemProxyForQuery() for Symbian, allowing network proxies configured on the device to be used by applications. - QWidget * [QT-4416, QTBUG-17288] On devices which lack support for transparency in EGL surfaces, setting Qt::WA_TranslucentBackground on a widget whose windowType() is Qt::Window causes that widget to be rendered using the raster graphics system.
