    "Application Example",When you click to "open" or "save",then there will a lot of "QWindowsNativeInterface::nativeResourceForWindow: 'handle' requested for null window or window without handle."

    Whether in "debug" or "release",this problem occurs.

        Alright, so it seems it is coming up when you are actually trying to show native dialog. Let me try to reproduce it here

                  Received, thank you very much. Although I do not know how to fix the patch, had to wait for 5.02.
                  I will continue to learn.
                  Thanks again.

                          Solved my reporting of "QWindowsNativeInterface::nativeResourceForWindow: ‘handle’ requested for null window or window without handle."

                          This was was due to one of my DLLs being built by an earlier version of Qt.

                          Once I rebuilt all of the code used in my project the error messages stopped.

                            thanks, my warnings are slightly different - it complains about non exposed windows...

                                What kind of warning do you have in detail?

                                "QBackingStore::flush() called with non-exposed window, behavior is undefined"

                                or

                                "QWindowsNativeInterface::nativeResourceForWindow: ‘handle’ requested for null window or window without handle."

                                the latter one was fixed in 5.0.2 as far as I know, the first one still exists. In my app, the first warnign raises as soon as I tabify a dockwidget which is currently hidden.

                                I have reported this issue to comemrcial support but did not get any response yet :/

                                regards,
                                Torben

                                  the second one

                                        well, then test it if the warning still occurs on in the current stable release (5.0.2) -ideally before asking for support ;)

                                        Good luck!

                                          Ok! I didn't know that the 5.0.1 is unstable. Thanks!
