Note

The chap15 Networking needs QtFtp module before compiling because it is removed in Qt5. You can download QtFtp from its repo by git command:

git clone git://gitorious.org/qt/qtftp.git

All examples are compiled on Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTE with Qt5, except the chap23, which is only compiled on Windows platform with axserver module.

reported pixmap.fill(this, 0, 0) in the chap05/plotter/plotter.cpp is deprecated with QT5.0.2, and suggested to use fill(QColor &) instead it.

Adriano Martinez uberkael@gmail.com

found the bug pixmap.fill(palette().dark().color()) not work in Qt5.5, and suggested to use fill(QWidget::palette().color(QWidget::backgroundRole())) instead it.
