I didn't see it; and yes, I do read the ARC list so I've seen your
case for integrating Qt.

Thanks for belittling me by insinuating that I'm just out to expound
lies. Yes, I just invent hypothetical problems to make people's lives
harder, it's what I do best *sarcasm*.

Tell me, what motivation do I have to create a hypothetical situation
that creates more work and retards the progress of this project?

You yourself told me that applications can't link against stdcxx and
the equivalent that Sun provides at the same time.

Maybe I misunderstood you, but I don't think so.

>From what I remember, *you* stated that if I linked a C++ library
against stdcxx, then everything else must be also that uses it.

Therefore, if you create a version of Qt that is linked against
stdcxx, any applications must be linked against it also, true?

That is what I'm working off of.

If I can do this:

* Build Application X against Qt NOT built against stdcxx

* Run Application X on Qt NOT built against stdcxx

* Run Application X on Qt built against stdcxx

Then there is no conflict and I will consider this "water under the bridge."

However, if there is, as I believe there to be, then that is the
conflict I am talking about.
