Each time I need to interact efficiently with extenal code which isn't Qt-based, e.g. WebKit, ICU. In particular, this extra copy would certainly degrade performance of QtWebKit. Oh and you've mentioned CBOR, this implies that it won't be possible for Qt users to make efficient implementation of a different serialization format. -- Regards, Konstantin _______________________________________________ Development mailing list Development@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development
