Actually, the file we tried to read with QTextStream had LF line endings.
What's the procedure for revising online manual pages? It really could use
a mention...

We ran into a weird error with QTextStream. When using it to read a text
file, it removes all the line endings. That happens with readAll, read and
readLine.
Getting a QString direct from a QFile via readAll works properly.
Is this expected behavior in QTextStream? It's not documented anywhere.
Thiago, I'll describe what happens when our typical exception is thrown,
since conditions are very different from what you describe.
Before any method uses a pointer, it first does a sanity check. If nullptr
it shows a dialog with file/line number and what failed, then throws an

seems very reasonable. We'd much rather see that extended to ARM rather
than abandoned.
This link states that ARM fully supports C++ exception handling:
https://developer.arm.com/documentation/dui0491/i/C-and-C---Implementatio
Our code has thousands of sanity checks, which give an error message with
file & line #, then throw an exception. The event loop swallows the
non-fatal ones so users can continue work.

After updating to Qt 6.6.x, we are getting a "No rule to make target .
Stop." error.
Are there instructions somewhere for how to update/fix it? Google didn't
produce anything.

To diagnose a recent problem, we needed to install Qt on several different
computers with different Qt and OS setups.
The open source installer has about a 33% success rate. It gives several
hash and socket time-out errors along the way, then often aborts
completely. At that point it deletes all p

Our app contains some old C-ish C++ code from an early 90's database called

parameters. Their code works OK for Mac & Windows, when built with the
latest Qt5 on Intel.
The code also builds OK with the latest Qt6, but running it on a

We sell to construction companies. They are not computer geeks, and often
run the original OS until the machine dies. Given the flakiness of some
Mac OS upgrades, that may be ideal policy.

Here's more info on the weird QTableWidget problem we're seeing.
One of our data entry fields uses combination of widgets: a QLineEdit
subclass with a linked QToolButton subclass next to it, and a QListWidget
subclass that drops down underneath. It acts kinda like a combo box, but
