I made some progress over a year ago in backporting some of the changes from Qt 5 to Qt 4.8. But this was prior to Wayland 1.0 and there were some changes I never got in. You can see my branch here: http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/thiago-intels-qt/commits/4.8-qpa-wayland > If not then we will have to back-port some of the features of Platform > Abstraction and more from 5.0 to 4.8, would that be possible ? > > If so what would be the best point to start off with ? Probably my branch above. I haven't built it in 15 months, so no warranties. But please note that QPA in Qt 4.8 is limited by itself. It was missing some functionality that a proper Wayland application would need. I really recommend you consider Qt 5. Since QPA was new in Qt 4.8, it means you must have started this project only recently. Since you're asking now, 6 months after the Qt 5.0 release (and 5.1 is approaching), can we ask why the interest? -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center
