It's been a few years, but I think maybe it might come down to a 64/32 bit issue with the MS resource tool. I can't quite remember it, but there is somethign about 32/64 that requires an alternate resource program to be used on 64 bit machines. From: Guido Se

I've written a number of server applications. They work the same, you just inherit from QCoreApplication and make sure you have events. It would help to know what you're trying to do, but as long as you're not just processing command line arguments and exiting, you're going to need some way to

I'm not sure you can't use QPixmap, I think it more what you expect to use it for. Back int he day I wrote a code to capture QML animation frames to disk. PNG is a compressed format. The performance of this was not good. So I made a save thread and passed the Pixmap to the thread via a signal wh

[Interest] Missing QMap Algebra?

I've been in the python world lately and python has a dict.update() https://python-reference.readthedocs.io/en/latest/docs/dict/update.html It seems that QMap has no such function anymore, but it also never did? unite() would make a QMultiMap, so there would be multiple entries rather than one.
