When will the Qt 5.9 Beta be released?
-
@J.Hilk said in Qt 5.9 release:
you don't have to uninstall 5.8 if you don't want to. You can have multiple Versions of Qt installed simultaneously on your PC ( 5.8, 5.9, 5.1, 4.8 ...) its usually just a matter of HD-Space.
But why should I have these!?
When I have a new version so it normally includes all features of previous versions + some new ones too. -
So apparently 5.9 is not as stable and reliable as 5.8 yet. So I wait until some time later and then check the online installer. I think it's a good idea.
One thing that is odd to me is the term "Beta snapshot" for 5.9. It makes me have doubts about it! :-)

Don't be intimidated by the term snapshot, The fact that it is already in Beta means it's pretty close to be released. Snapshot just means some thing might still be added or removed form the final release.

Q: What's that?
A: It's blue light.
Q: What does it do?
A: It turns blue. -

Good.
