Ok. And what is the EXACT prerequisities for the Qt5, BEFORE I install this package?

sierdzio

Linux: xcb/ wayland, Mesa/ OpenGL stuff, libICU, g++
Mac: Xcode + Command line tools
Windows: MSVC 2010, ICU

Requirements are bigger if you want to compile it. See "this link":http://qt-project.org/wiki/Building-Qt-5-from-Git.

I've some questions to ask:

Do you canceled QtSDK-offline distros?
Where can I find MinGW disto?
I tired to donwload the new versions but I got this error message! how can I get them?

Qt 5 ships with the new offline SDK

It's not available yet due to problems in QtWebKit module. You can compile using MinGW yourself.

Maybe some temporary quirk. Downloads work for me.

404 error is due to a bug in the HTTPS Everywhere plugin: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7560

Disable it, and you'll be able to download

Does lack of VS2008 binaries mean that this compiler is unsupported (due to lack of lambda support?) by Qt 5?

sierdzio

No, C++98 is still fully supported. You should be able to compile the source using MSVC 2008.

Great to hear! Now have to figure out how to compile it against Regal (https://github.com/p3/regal) instead of normal OpenGL

tobias.hunger

@hardcoder: Interesting... do you have more information than what is on that site? Which issues is regal addressing?

hardcoder

Not much more to add yet, sorry. I am now in the process of porting a game from Win to OSX and later to iOS. Regal promises portable OpenGL code between all 3 (where iOS uses GL/ES) by even providing emulation of missing features. The only thing I can add from brief experience under Win that it is great for debugging GL calls (I am now thinking about TDD for my renderer on top of Regal). And best part is that I didn't even build Qt against it, only put regal.dll renamed to opengl32.dll into application directory and suddenly I was able to debug/step into GL functions. Still under research but Qt + Regal seems to be very promising combo for cross-platform GL apps.

thanks... it works

I've finally updated from my old pre-alpha source clone to the released package. Congrats once again, it works fabulously! QtQuick2 seems to be much faster and smoother than before.

I am waiting for porting/using Qt5 until it is available in different repositorys of Linux distributions. It does not make sense for me, if I publish deb- or rpg-packages if they cannot install it.
