Topics in QtCore

Graphics Vision 2020

Laszlo Agocs, Andy Nichols & others

Towards a unified 2D-3D world. Let's discuss the direction for Qt Quick, the scenegraph, Qt 3D Studio with Qt 3D underneath, and the related tools like Qt 3D Studio and Qt Design Studio.

Qt 3D Studio Runtime and APIs, 2.0 and beyond

Laszlo Agocs

As a continuation to the Graphics Vision session, let's take a look at what ships in Qt 3D Studio 2.0 when it comes to C++ and QML APIs, and how these could evolve in the future.

CI status and ruminations about flaky tests

Ville Voutilainen

Brief look at what the CI task force has done, with focus on flaky tests, how to find them, and what to do about them going forward.

Dates, Times, Zones and Calendars

C++20 is slated to build, on std::'s <chrono>, a coherent (and well-designed) date/time system that does time-zones well and supports a way of doing calendars. We have a QAbstractCalendar contribution in the pipe-line.

  • What becomes of that, QTimeZone and Q(Date|Time)+ once (most of a decade from now) Qt is able to use C++20's shiny new library features ?
  • What should we do for Qt6 to prepare the way for that future transition ?
