[MeeGo-dev] Call for ideas - preprocessor #define for meego version (Q_MEEGO_VER ?)

2011-06-13 Thread Ville M. Vainio
We all know and love Q_WS_MAEMO_5 and Q_OS_SYMBIAN for getting work done. However, as everybody ends up seeing,, there is no equivalent for meego. If we ended up having one, what would it look like? Q_MEEGO_VER_MAJOR, Q_MEEGO_VER_MINOR Q_MEEGO_PROFILE tablet-reference ?
