The next version of the Qt library can now please everyone. This release brought an important and unexpected surprise to developers: Qt is distributed on the LGPL . There are also other nice gifts from Qt Software:
Significantly increased the speed of the graphics subsystem
Improved integration with WebKit
Qt has also been ported to Apple's Cocoa framework.
Qt Creator is a lightweight cross-platform development environment sharpened for development for C ++ and Qt. Development of Qt Creator was conducted with an eye on two things: fully cross-platform development; and ease of use for those who are just starting to get acquainted with Qt.
The Qt Creator environment includes an effective set of tools for creating and testing Qt programs:
Advanced C ++ Code Editor
Context help
Visual debugger
Source Code Management
Project and Build Management Tools
Qt Creator is also distributed under the LGPL 2.1 license. Currently, only desktop operating systems (Windows, Linux and Mac OS) are supported for development, but platform support for embedded devices may be added in the next few months. ')
I congratulate all Qt developers on this momentous event!
