    @qDebug That sounds strange. I don't have FF 43 anymore, so can't test. But it should really not depend on the browser, plus FF 43 is a recent version. (I just changed your question to a question)

    One good way to learn about Qt is to attend training. Here is a link to some scheduled events organized by The Qt Company: http://www.qt.io/events/ In addition, several other companies organize training events around the world. For example, here is a link to some events organized by KDAB: http://www.kdab.com/training/schedule/

    Yes, we do read these forums. Yes, all platforms do not support everything possible, but you do realise that every single platform is evolving all the time and trying to keep up with them on all the details is hard work. Hard work that the developers of Qt are doing pretty well. (I agree with Bluetooth being a pain, as I'm trying to write something with it myself. Luckily the platforms I want to run on have pretty good support.) Next the legal questions. You also need to understand that I have zero hours of law school or training, so getting a comment from me about licenses in third party app stores is like asking a random person on the street. Add to that the fact that some people will take anything as legal advice, and the result is that we do not really like to say anything out here. As a general guide; and do not mistake this for legal advice, this is a random dude on the internet rambling about licenses. I have not read what the Apple app store texts say currently, but the text used to be hostile toward open source licenses (again stress on the part where I have not read it recently, I hear they are softening the text). Google has been more simple in the past, where LGPL Qt has been quite ok, there is even ministro that can handle the libraries for you. So it's Apple that has been in the gray area where people without a legal degree can't say anything in any direction. Then again, if you comply with the GPL/LGPL in providing the source/object files when someone asks, you are ok. (except if the Apple agreement says something else) We do have a commercial option for small business coming out this spring still. The cost will be in line with what a small business / indie developer can afford. So nothing like the 350$/month you found (which is probably about correct for a pro app development license). So assuming you want to do commercial apps, you can do open source and be prepared to give object / source files depending on the license you go with, or you can get a commercial license. Again assuming you are a small business / indie developer I suggest you wait a bit for the small business license that we have coming out in roughly the Qt 5.6 release timeframe.

    Thanks for the tip. We'll check unixstickers out and see if we can work with them. It looks like we would be in good company there.

    Qt like 'cute' :) In my opinion, it is the cleanest and most elegant C++ framework there is. It might be hard initially, but it is quite easy to become familiar with it after that because of the consistent architecture - you almost know how to use something as it is very much like what you would expect. :)

    @Alkaris said: What is the standard environment PATHs for Qt and everything it uses? Short answer: There is no such thing as "standard environment PATHs for Qt and everything it uses". Long answer: Please note the following: The environment variables set by QtChooser is for building applications, not for running applications. QtChooser is not the tool you're interested in, since it does not affect how applications load Qt. The place where an application searches for Qt is determined by one or more of these things: (i) how the application itself was built and packaged, (ii) ldconfig, and/or (iii) distro-specific settings. Qt has no control over any of these 3 factors. Qt itself does not require any environment variables. Your system is the one that requires environment variables. You would have better luck if you had asked the Linux Mint community, since your problem is a question of "How does this system help applications find the libraries they need?". You say to dynamically link the ones I want to use, but I need to know the default environment PATHs so I can point applications to it. @Wieland suggested that you use ldconfig. You don't need to know or set any PATHs to follow it. There are many places to learn ldconfig, including http://codeyarns.com/2014/01/14/how-to-add-library-directory-to-ldconfig-cache/ I know you have now found a solution of your own, but do realize there are multiple ways to get your system to work. it's not something I broke, the whole Qt package itself came broke, blame the maintainer of the package provider https://launchpad.net/~beineri/+archive/ubuntu/opt-qt551 that's where I got the qt55 from in the first place. That's an unofficial package created by an Ubuntu community member. It was not created by the Qt Project or by Canonical (the company that maintains Ubuntu). We understand that you're annoyed and frustrated. But that is no excuse to take it out on the people here. eventually figured it out and fixed it on my own after messing around trying out a few things. Glad to hear.

    pretty much as long as you are dynamically linking with the libraries or are running open source software, it doesn't cost any money. for android and for linux this is totally allowed. for ios you cant put dynamic linked software on the app store, so you would have to pay 200$ for the license.

    First, change your rule checking method to return a boolean value instead of displaying the message box directly: bool CompareRules(QString OnePara ) { if (OnePara.contains("//")) return false; return true; } Then add a counter variable and check the result of the rule checking method: if (inputFile.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly)) { QTextStream in(&inputFile); int counter = 0; while (!in.atEnd()) { counter++; QString line = in.readLine(); Para += line; if (line!=NULL) { if (!CompareRules(Para)) { QMessageBox::warning(NULL, "My Application", QString("ERROR.\nRule Violated in line %1!").arg(counter) ); return; } }

    @Wieland I haven't noticed that. I mostly wander around here with Chrome. Will have to keep an eye on performance difference with character sets.

    Thanks for the information. We are looking into this. The translation isn't really the easiest thing to read, but it does look strange.

    @ace256024 thank you, I appreciate that. I did not have the background on the matter, and only see the public side of it. And as it is a matter of a license agreement, I need to look after that. I'll ask on the background and get back to you.

    @kshegunov Yes, the word you used is quite appropriate :) And no, private reselling is not allowed. The Qt Company does have official resellers and partners, but as you said someone posting three years ago will probably have solved their situation.
