     1 Here is a list of changes in Qt from 0.91 to 0.92.  Also look out
       
     2 for a few new classes; QPrinter, QFileDialog, QDir and QFileInfo.
       
     3 
       
     4 
       
     5 QApplication:
       
     6 -------------
       
     7   Use setMainWidget( x ), not exec( x ).
       
     8 
       
     9 QString:
       
    10 --------
       
    11   upper(), lower(), stripWhiteSpace() and simplifyWhiteSpace() etc.
       
    12   do NOT modify the string, instead they return a new string.
       
    13 
       
    14 QList and QVector:
       
    15 ------------------
       
    16   Changed argument in QList::toVector() from reference to pointer
       
    17   Changed argument in QVector::toList() from reference to pointer
       
    18   Removed QVector::apply()
       
    19   Removed QList::apply()
       
    20 
       
    21 QPainter:
       
    22 ---------
       
    23   pen(), brush() and font() no longer returns references.
       
    24   You cannot do this any longer:
       
    25 	QPainter p;
       
    26 	...
       
    27         p.pen().setColor( red );
       
    28 	p.brush().setStyle( NoBrush );
       
    29   Instead, set a new pen or brush:
       
    30 	p.setPen( red );
       
    31 	p.setBrush( NoBrush );
       
    32   This enables us to do better optimization, particularly for complex
       
    33   programs.
       
    34 
       
    35 QFile, QFileInfo (new):
       
    36 -----------------------
       
    37   Removed QFile::setFileName, 
       
    38   QFile::isRegular   => QFileInfo::isFile
       
    39   QFile::isDirectory => QFileInfo::isDir
       
    40   QFile::isSymLink   => QFileInfo::isSymLink
       
    41 
       
    42 Q2DMatrix/QWMatrix:
       
    43 ---------
       
    44   Q2DMatrix has been replaced with QWMatrix (qwmatrix.h)
       
    45 
       
    46 QPixmap:
       
    47 --------
       
    48   enableImageCache() renamed to setOptimization().
       
    49   Optimization is now default ON.  See doc for other optimization functions.
       
    50 
       
    51 QImage:
       
    52 -------
       
    53   scanline() => scanLine()
       
    54 
       
    55 QLineEdit/QLCDNumber:
       
    56 ---------------------
       
    57   signal textChanged( char * ) => textChanged( const char * );
       
    58   slot   display( char * )     => display( const char * )
       
    59 
       
    60 QCursor:
       
    61 --------
       
    62     hourGlassCursor => waitCursor
       
    63 
       
    64 QButton and friends:
       
    65 --------------------
       
    66     QIconButton removed, setPixmap() added to QButton to replace QIconButton
       
    67 
       
    68 QTableWidget:
       
    69 -------------
       
    70     Renamed to QTableView (qtablevw.h)
       
    71     Using int to identify rows and columns, not long.
       
    72 
       
    73 QRangeControl:
       
    74 --------------
       
    75     Using int values, not long.
       
    76 
       
    77 QScrollBar:
       
    78 -----------
       
    79     Using int values, not long.
       
    80 
       
    81 QListBox:
       
    82 ---------
       
    83     removed setStrList(), use clear(); insertStrList( ... , 0 ); instead 
       
    84 
       
    85 QColor:
       
    86 -------
       
    87     setRGB => setRgb
       
    88     getRGB => rgb
       
    89     setHSV => setHsv
       
    90     getHSV => hsv
       
    91 
       
    92 QFontMetrics and QFontInfo:
       
    93 ---------------------------
       
    94     Get font metrics from QWidget::fontMetrics() and QPainter::fontMetrics().
       
    95     Get font info    from QWidget::fontInfo()    and QPainter::fontInfo().
       
    96     The QFontMetrics(QFont) constructor no longer works.
       
    97     We had to do these changes to support printing and Windows.
       
    98 
       
    99 
       
   100 There are more changes, left out because we consider them minor and
       
   101 uninteresting or because we forgot to mention them. :)
