That was a joke! Tongue in cheek with how Symbian/S60 named its versions at one point in time. > Are Windows versions in scope? Also, we support version numbers, not marketing names. "Symbian 5th Edition, Feature Pack 1" was 5.1. And that got retroactively renamed to Symbian^1. And then Symbian^3 became Symbian Anna. The same goes for Windows: the marketing name "Windows 7" does not represent the version number. QSysInfo::osVersion() will return "Windows 8" but QSysInfo::osKernelRelease() will return "6.2.9200". > My bikeshed color is that a version comparator should only do > 'component-wise numeric comparison' and shouldn't also try to handle > prefixes and suffixes etc. I'm just adding that because I don't really > support any side of this discussion beyond bikeshedding.
