between all platforms Qt supports, but is binary incompatible to Qt 5.1 consistent behavior between all platforms Qt supports, but is binary
on ARM. The old behavior can be restored by passing -qreal float to incompatible to Qt 5.1 on ARM. The old behavior can be restored by
configure. passing -qreal float to configure.
- The supported date range in QDateTime has been reduced to about +/- 292
million years, the range supported by the number of msecs since the Unix
epoch of 1 Jan 1970 as stored in a qint64, and as able to be used in the
setMSecsSinceEpoch() and toMSecsSinceEpoch() methods.
- QUrl and QUrlQuery:
* [QTBUG-31660] QUrl no longer considers all delimiter characters
equivalent to their percent-encoded forms. Now, both classes always
keep all delimiters exactly as they were in the original URL text.
* [QTBUG-31660] QUrl no longer decodes %7B and %7D to "{" and "}" in the
output of toString()
* QUrl no longer supports QUrl::FullyDecoded mode in authority() and
userInfo(), nor QUrl::DecodedMode in setAuthority() and setUserInfo().
* [QTBUG-31945] QUrl no longer decodes %23 found in the fragment to "#"
in the output of toString(QUrl::FullyEncoded) or toEncoded()
* QUrl now defaults to decoded mode in the getters and setters for
userName, password, host, topLevelDomain, path and fileName. This
means a '%' in one of those fields is now returned (or set) as '%'
rather than "%25". In the unlikely case where the former behavior was
expected, pass PrettyDecoded to the getter and TolerantMode to the
setter.
* QUrl now normalizes the path given in setPath, removing ./ and ../ and
duplicate slashes.

QtWidgets
---------
- QAbstractScrollArea now has a SizeAdjustPolicy. If it is set to AdjustToContents
it will make use of the protected viewportSizeHint() virtual function. This
function returns a suggested size based on contents. Note that although the
viewportSizeHint() virtual function was reserved in 5.0, user code was not
supposed to be overriding it (as the function was private and undocumented).
Code that was overriding viewportSizeHint() needs to be recompiled against 5.2
for this feature to work correctly.
- QTreeView now has setTreePosition to allow the treestructure to show data from other
columns than logicalindex zero.
- [QTBUG-4206] QTableView resizeToContents will now adjust to actual contents
and not just visible area. QHeaderView::setAutoResizePrecision() has been
introduced to control how precise the autoResize should be.
- QFileDialog::setDefaultSuffix() removes leading dot characters.
- [QTBUG-34132] QFileDialog does not instantiate widgets if a native dialog
will be used instead. Therefore some accessors which previously returned
unused objects will now return null. As before, you can set the
DontUseNativeDialog option to ensure that widgets will be created and used instead.
- QSizePolicy got a retainSizeWhenHidden attribute.
- [QTBUG-31602] QSpinBox size calculation will now be fixed when stylesheets are
used.

Qt::OffsetFromUTC, added new methods for offsetFromUTC(),
toTimeSpec(), and toOffsetFromUTC().
* Added convenience methods for fromMSecsSinceEpoch() and fromTime_t()

* The debug datastream is now an ISO-like format instead of Qt::TextDate
* The Standard Time to Daylight Time transition for Qt::LocalTime is now
handled correctly. Any date set in the "missing" hour is now
considered invalid. All date math results that fall into the missing
hour will be automatically adjusted to a valid time in the following
hour.
* Added new method isDaylightTime() to return if the datetime is in
Daylight Time or not.

define times in a specific time zone.

* Added new methods fromMSecsSinceStartOfDay() to create a new QTime
from an msecs value, and msecsSinceStartOfDay() to return the QTime as
the number of msecs since the start of the day.
- QTimeZone:
* Added new QTimeZone class to support time tone calculations using the
host platform time zone database and the Olsen time zone ID's.
- QUrl:
* [QTBUG-33229] QUrl now fully accepts non-character unicode points;
they are encoded as percent characters; they can also be pretty
