[SOLVED] QT 5.2.0: Q_DECLARE_METATYPE requires value_type and other sequential class attributes to be defined

[John.Curious]

I have a code that compiles and runs fine under QT 5.1.1. After upgrading to QT 5.2.0, I got errors:

@
c:\qt\qt5.2.0\5.2.0\msvc2012_64\include\qtcore\qmetatype.h(1372) : error C2039: 'value_type' : is not a member of 'MyTemplateClass<T>'

These errors are generated from the line:
@
typedef MyTemplateClass<float> MyTemplateClassFlt; Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(MyTemplateClassFlt)
@

MyTemplateClass is a simple template class which is not based on a sequential container. Why 5.2.0's Q_DECLARE_METATYPE now requires "T::value_type" and other attributes of sequential classes?

Is this a bug on 5.2.0 or my code is implicitly broken with undetectable under 5.1.1 problems?

To leave this thread with an answer, it appeared that I was using Q_DECLARE_METATYPE_TEMPLATE_1ARG macro, which came quite handy to me, but that macro is not documented in QT and they changed its behavior, starting from 5.2.0.
