- Frequently Asked Questions
-
-Please note: the latest version of this and other FAQ lists are available at:
- http://www.trolltech.com/faq/
-
-What is Trolltech?
-
-Trolltech is an international software company with headquarters in Oslo,
-the capital of Norway, and with offices in Brisbane, Australia, and Santa
-Clara, California. Our flagship product is Qt, the multi-platform C++ GUI
-toolkit.
-
-Trolltech AS was founded in 1994, although the development of Qt
-itself began in 1992. Since then, Qt has undergone continual expansion
-and improvement. Qt is currently used in thousands of software
-development projects world-wide.
-
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Is there a graphical designer/dialog builder for Qt?
-
-Yes, Qt Designer.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Are there mailing lists for Qt?
-
-There are three: qt-interest, qt-announce and snapshot-users. You can tqfind
-descriptions, instructions for joining them, and an archive on
-http://lists.trolltech.com/
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-I think I have found a bug in Qt. Where can I report it?
-
-Please report to qt-bugs@trolltech.com. Remember to include the version
-number of Qt, and the make and version of your compiler and your operating
-system.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Is the Reference Documentation available in printed form?
-
-No. But experimental PDF versions are available.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Is the Reference Documentation available in PDF format?
-
-Experimentally, yes.
-We recommend using the HTML format documentation which is included in
-the Qt source archive and is updated with every release, minor or
-major. You can browse from your local disk, you don't need to access
-www.trolltech.com. Open the file qt/doc/html/index.html with your
-favorite web browser, or run Qt Assistant. The PDF files are available
-from ftp://ftp.trolltech.com/qt/pdf/3.0
-The PDF files are large, only updated with major version releases, and
-their typesetting is experimental. We hope to improve the PDF
-typesetting in future, if there is sufficient demand for this format.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-What kinds of license exist for Qt?
-
-The Qt toolkit is available under two different licenses: The Professional
-and Enterprise Editions for commercial use on all platforms, and the Open Source
-Edition for developing open source or free software for the X11 platform.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-What are the differences between the Professional/Enterprise Editions and
-Open Source Edition of Qt?
-
-You may write commercial/proprietary/non-free software only if you
-have purchased the Professional or Enterprise Edition. The library
-itself is the same. With the commercial editions, you also get
-technical support and upgrades. A non-commercial edition of Qt for
-Microsoft Windows is available. Qt for Mac OS X is only available as
-Professional and Enterprise Editions.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Can we use the Open Source Edition while developing our non-free application
-and then purchase commercial licenses when we start to sell it?
-
-No. The Open Source Edition license applies to the development phase
-- anything developed without Professional or Enterprise Edition
-licenses must be released as free/open source software.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-When will version x.y be released? Will it include so-and-so feature?
-
-We avoid specifying which features will be available in particular
-versions or when versions will be released. This way we never make
-promises that are not kept.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Are there any books about Qt programming?
-
-Yes, several. They are listed on
-http://www.trolltech.com/developer/documentation/literature.html
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Is there an evaluation version of Qt for Windows so I can try it out
-before purchasing?
-
-Yes, see details on
-http://www.trolltech.com/products/qt/evaluate.html
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-I don't want to give away my source code. What do I do?
-
-Then you need a Professional or Enterprise Edition license.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-What tool do you use to create the Reference Documentation? Where can I
-get it?
-
-The documentation generator we use is an internal tool. You might like
-to investigate the Doxygen program, a free tool specifically designed
-to be used for projects that make use of the Qt toolkit. Doxygen
-offers functionality very similar to our internal tool, and can link
-to the Qt documentation. For more information about Doxygen, visit the
-Doxygen home page ( http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/ ). Note that
-Doxygen is an independent project not supported by Trolltech.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Can I charge for my application?
-
-If you have a Professional or Enterprise Edition license: Yes, of
-course. If you use the Open Source Edition your software must be freely
-redistributable and you must include the source. The Open Source Edition
-is intended for open source software. We realize that CD-ROMs cost money
-to produce, for example, so you may charge a copying fee.
-
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Where can I tqfind Qt Open Source Edition?
-
-The latest version of Qt Open Source Edition can be downloaded from
-http://www.trolltech.com or from ftp.trolltech.com, and a whole range of
-ftp mirror sites around the world. Look for a mirror near you on the list
-available under http://www.trolltech.com/dl/ We encourage all developers
-of free Qt software to upload their work to ftp.trolltech.com.
-
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-I want to port Qt to a new platform. What do I do?
-
-If the new platform is POSIX-like and runs the X Window System, it's
-simple. Read the file PORTING for details.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Can I make a Qt shared library and distribute it with my Linux
-distribution?
-
-Yes.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-I found this obscure bug and I need it fixed, fast!
-
-Qt Professional and Enterprise Editions includes a technical support
-service. We try to support the developers using the Qt Open Source Edition
-as well, and we take all bug reports seriously, no matter who they come
-from. But, of course, when there's too much to do, and our customers
-have highest priority.
-
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-How would you compare Qt with Java?
-
-We believe Qt to be a superiour solution for most development tasks,
-not least for performance and portability reasons. Ref:
