Christian clarified (privately) that any major versions older than 5 listed in \since won't show up in the generated documentation. Keeping a span of one major version of \since around seems reasonable enough, but do we really gain much by removing these old \since lines? On the other hand, aski

Sorry to reply directly but can't write much on my mobile. \since does occour in the documentation but it's suppressed for a long time for everything older than \since 5.0 in the QtBase (at least, did not check others) documentation. We don't talk about removing \since at all here. Just for stuf

This doesn't help much. To the original question: When the "\since" was introduced? First what I did was to grep for "\since" string on qttools. Only 5 hits in scope of qttools/src/qdoc - not useful. Then I've searched for "since" there: around ~200 hits. By clicking on them I've concluded the c

Hello, For a while now there has been "Quality of Service" APIs available for threads and processes in at least Apple[0] and Windows[1]. Typically you can request either "Eco", and Default (i.e. the OS does its normal thing) The way these work is that they will prefer running the process / thre

G'Day Paul, Thank you for raising this issue. As someone who has performed archaeology on Qt many times over the years, I would prefer to keep the \since data intact. In the past, this information has saved me time by helping me to narrow down my investigations to a much shorter segment of Qt's h

Some thoughts to add: - I can’t seem to find any pattern / rules as to when a \since tag was added in the past. Some APIs have a \since 4.x tag, some have nothing at all. Putting effort into regulating the removal of something, that has been added in an unregulated way, is totally OK if it’s a
