Release Notes<br />
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br />
Cross-platform development is a kind of holy grail, and Trolltech's Qt toolkit <br />
may well be the most promising solution yet to this development challenge. Qt is <br />
widely used for the development of GUI applications as well as console tools and <br />
servers, and it's especially appealing to programmers who need to write <br />
cross-platform applications to run on Linux/Unix, Mac, and Windows machines <br />
without having to rewrite for each platform.<br />
<br />
The Book of Qt 4 offers an in-depth explanation of Qt 4 that goes beyond the <br />
common focus on C++ programming. Author Daniel Molkentin uses practical examples <br />
to explain features like the signal/slot concept and the event system, as he <br />
guides you through developing applications with and without Qt's graphical GUI <br />
builder, Qt Designer. And as a core KDE developer, Molkentin's head is full of <br />
real-world problems and solutions that he peppers liberally throughout The Book <br />
of Qt 4, making it a resource that you'll consult time and again.<br />
<br />
You'll find coverage of:<br />
<br />
* Tools for creating dialogs<br />
* GUI design with the Qt Designer<br />
* Widget layout and dialog construction<br />
* Data visualization using Qt's model/view concept<br />
* The QtSql module and the graphics library Arthur<br />
* File handling, XML, processes, and network connections<br />
* Databases and threading<br />
* Event handling and using drag and drop<br />
* Internationalization and debugging<br />
<br />
As well as lots of useful hints on how to use Qt's datatypes, containers, and <br />
algorithms and how to develop user-friendly applications.<br />
<br />
Whether you're already a Qt developer or you're just considering Qt for <br />
cross-platform development,you'll find The Book of Qt 4 to be indispensable.<br />
