Supported Platforms

This is a draft and open for discussion, which should happen in the development list.

Here we attempt to list compilers and platforms the project aims to support. This is meant as guidance for developers of Qt and it should support informed decisions on the use of compiler, language and platform features.

For comparison, also check the "list of supported platforms for Qt 4.8":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.8/supported-platforms.html.

Compilers

Excluding platform-specific code which should be clearly protected through the use of appropriate <code&gt;#ifdef&lt;/code&gt;'s, all code contributed to Qt should be fully supported by these compilers:

  • GCC 4.2 and up (Mac OS uses 4.2, Debian stable is at 4.4)
  • Clang (trunk?)
  • MSVC 2008
  • ICC (which version?)
