Raw Blame History

Qt 4.2.2 is a bug-fix release. It maintains both forward and backward
compatibility (source and binary) with Qt 4.2.0.
The Qt version 4.2 series is binary compatible with the 4.1.x and 4.0.x
series. Applications compiled for 4.0 or 4.1 will continue to run with 4.2.

General Improvements
--------------------
- Configuration/Compilation
* Fixed issues with unresolved zlib symbols on aix-g++ resulting from a
missing "-lz" in gui/Makefile.
* Fixed compilation when an unsupported version of MySQL is auto-detected
by the configure script.
* Fixed QtDBus linking errors when compiling with the Intel C++ Compiler
for Linux.
* Fixed compilation when using Q_ARG and Q_RETURN_ARG macros with template
types.
* Make Qt compile with QT_NO_TOOLTIP and QT_NO_STATUSBAR
- Documentation
* Added new overviews and substantially improved Qtopia Core-specific
documentation.
- Demos / Examples
* Fixed crash in the Settings Editor example resulting from entering
certain input to a QTreeWidget using QLineEdit as an inline editor.
* Fixed crash in the Ported Canvas example that occurred when creating a
new canvas from one that was shrunk to its minimum size.
- I/O
* Fixed divide by zero when loading malformed BMP files.
- Qt Assistant
* Fixed a bug that prevented the view from scrolling to anchors within
pages.
- Qt Designer
* Fixed crash that could occur when pasting a QGridLayout into a
QTabWidget.
* Fixed the signals & slots connection editor to automatically scroll to
the correct items.
* Fixed blocking behavior that would occur when previewing modal forms.
* Made OK the default button in the "Promote to Custom Widget" dialog.
* Ensured that main window forms that include size grips are repainted
correctly when they are resized.
* Fixed bug in Form Settings dialog - it wasn't possible to reset the
"Pixmap Function" field.
- Qt Linguist
* Fixed bug where lupdate would leave out the namespace part of the context.
* Fixed bug in lupdate where the paths of the generated ts files was not
relative to the pro file.
* Fixed bug in lupdate that caused strings that contained \r\n were not
translated.
* Improved the user interface with some minor layout changes.
* Improved handling of forms without layouts.
* Fixed crash caused by navigating to the previous node when the current
node was the first and topmost node.
* Fixed bug in the preview translation feature where forms that did not
have any layout got a height of 0.
* Fixed bug where "Search and Translate" did not trigger a repaint on the
items that got translated, leading people to believe that
"Search and Translate" did not work.
* Fixed a layout problem with the "Search and Translate" dialog.
- qmake
* Fixed crash that could occur when using the LIB_PATH variable if a .libs
directory is located on one of the paths held by the variable.
* Improved generation of Xcode projects to avoid problems with qmake
project files that contain certain Qt-dependent declarations.
* Improved support for Objective C sources in the Xcode project generator
to ensure that they are added to the project's target.
Third party components
----------------------
- libpng
* Security fix (CVE-2006-5793): The sPLT chunk handling code
uses a sizeof operator on the wrong data type, which allows
context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash)
via malformed sPLT chunks that trigger an out-of-bounds read.
* Security fix: Avoid profile larger than iCCP chunk.
One might crash a decoder by putting a larger profile inside the
iCCP profile than is actually expected.
* Security fix: Avoid null dereference.
* Disabled MMX assembler code for Intel-Mac platforms to work
around a compiler bug.

* Library *
****************************************************************************
General improvements
--------------------
- Accessibility
* Fixed a potential assert when navigating menus while assistive tools are
running.
* Fixed a crash when getting accessibility information from an item view
without a model.
* Fixed item view accessibility bug where QAccessibleInterface::text()
would return an empty string for child indexes larger
than one.
- Item views
* Fixed QHeaderView and QTableView overflow issues when the length
of all the rows or columns went over the maximum allowed integer value.
* When reset is emitted by a QAbstractItemModel, QHeaderView will now
always update the header count().
* Fixed incorrect scrolling in QHeaderView when items are hidden.
* Fixed bug where QHeaderView would disappear if the sections were moved
and the model was reset.
* QDataWidgetMapper::mappedWidgetAt() now always returns the right
mapped index for a widget no matter in which order they were inserted

QSortFilterProxyModel::layoutChanged().
* Fixed bug that could cause QSortFilterProxyModel::removeRows() and
QSortFilterProxyModel::removeColumns() to remove the wrong source model
items.
* Fixed bug in QSortFilterProxyModel that caused stale proxy mappings to
remain when source model items were removed and later reinserted,
resulting in an incorrect proxy model.
* Fixed bug in QSortFilterProxyModel that caused items to not appear
in a QTreeView when adding children to a formerly childless source item.
* Fixed painting bug for spanning cells in QTableView when the item

always updating the view, causing possibly painting errors.
* Fixed regression that caused incorrect propagation of Enter key press
from a QAbstractItemView in editing mode.
* Date and time editors are now initialized correctly with the current
date and time.
* QTableView tab focus handling has been improved. Although tab key
navigation is enabled by default, you can tab out of a view if the
model is either missing or unable to handle the key (e.g., an empty
model).

call in QGraphicsItem.
* Fixed mouse grabber book-keeping problems in QGraphicsScene which fell out
of sync when opening modal dialogs or popups from within a mouse event
handlers.

approximately on the same line.
* Fixed raster paint engine memory corruption in QBitmap when source buffer
was smaller than the destination buffer.
* Avoid rounding errors when drawing parts of a pixmap using the Quartz 2D
engine.
* Added caching of QGradient's color table for the raster paint engine.
This means that if a gradient with the same stops and colors is used
again, it will be quickly fetched from the cache, avoiding the
expensive calculations of the color lookup table.
* Fixed a crash on Windows and with QImage caused by specifying
Qt::CustomDashLine without an actual pattern.
* Fixed a bug in the raster paint engine which would occasionally cause
pixel errors when drawing polygons.

non-cosmetic pen would produce incorrect results.
* Fixed an issue where text was cut off when drawn onto a QImage.
* Fixed an issue where text would be drawn onto a QPicture with an
incorrect position.
* Fixed an issue where enabling/disabling clipping when drawing into a
QImage did not have any effect.

- QDialogButtonBox
* QDialogButtonBox now sets the default button to the first button with
the Accept role if no other button has explicitly been set as the
default when it is shown. This is to stop a regression where using the
autoDefault property with the Mac and Cleanlooks styles would set the
Cancel button as the default.

- QPainter
* Fixed reentrancy issue that would otherwise lead to crashes if more than
one QImage is deleted at the same time (from different threads).
