\title qt3to4 - The Qt 3 to 4 Porting Tool
\ingroup porting
\keyword qt3to4
The \c qt3to4 tool provides help when moving a project from Qt 3
to Qt 4. It is designed to automate the most tedious part of the
porting effort.
See \l{Porting to Qt 4} and \l{Porting UI Files to Qt 4} for
more information about porting Qt 3 applications to Qt 4.
\section1 Usage
\c qt3to4 can be run either on individual C++ source or header
files, or on an entire project specified by a \c qmake \c .pro
file:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_qt3to4.qdoc 0
In project mode, \c qt3to4 reads the \c .pro file and converts
all files specified in it. The tool modifies the files in place.
You might want to make a copy of your project before you run the
tool.
\section1 Porting Rules
The Qt porting tool loads its porting rules from an XML file
called \c q3porting.xml located in Qt's \c tools/porting/src directory.
By editing this file, you can add your own rules or remove some
rules.
The standard \c q3porting.xml file specifies the following
conversions:
\list
\o Rename classes that are now part of the Qt 3 support
library (e.g., replace \c QFileDialog with \c{Q3FileDialog}).
\o Prefix or rename enum values that have been moved or
renamed (e.g., replace \c QButton::On with \c{QCheckBox::On}) or
members of the Qt namespace (e.g., replace \c QWidget::red with
\c{Qt::red}).
\o Add \c #include directives that might be needed in Qt 4.
\endlist
\section2 Location of the qt3porting.xml File
You can now specify the location of the \c qt3porting.xml file with the
\c{-f} command line option. This is useful if you want to use a modified
file with your own rules.
If you you don't want to maintain a modified \c qt3porting.xml it is
possible to create a "patch" file that includes the original file and adds
or disables rules. The syntax for this file looks like this:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_qt3to4.qdoc 1
\section1 Logging
The porting tool logs all changes to a file called \c
portinglog.txt in the current directory. This file lists all
changes made to the source files.
\section1 Advanced Usage
When porting, \c qt3to4 parses the source files and ports the
contents according to the C++ language rules. This C++ parsing
step can be disabled with the \c -disableCppParsing option.
If C++ parsing is enabled, \c qt3to4 must be able to locate the
headers included from the source files. Necessary headers include
the public Qt headers and any headers that declares names that
may conflict with names in the public Qt headers. The standard
C++ headers and system headers are usually not needed.
You can tell \c qt3to4 where to look for headers by using the
\c{-I} command-line option. Qt 3.3 header information is built
in, so it is normaly not necessary to specify the location of the
Qt headers. If you are porting from a different version of Qt 3,
you may want to disable the built-in headers with
\c{-disableBuiltInQt3Headers}, and then add the path to the
actual headers with the \c{-I} option.
When porting a project, \c qt3to4 will read the \c INCLUDEPATH
and \c DEPENDPATH variables from the \c .pro file and add the
paths specified here to the list of include search directories.
To see which headers that are not found, use the \c{-missingFileWarnings}
option.
\section1 Limitations
In some cases, you might get compiler errors because of identifiers
in the global namespace (e.g., \c CTRL). Adding
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_qt3to4.qdoc 2
at the beginning of the source file that contains
the indentifier solves the problem.

permissive licenses from the original authors. Nokia gratefully
