“Trolltech has announced the official release of Qt 4.4, a
much-anticipated update to their popular, cross-platform software
development framework. Qt is distributed under a dual-licensing
model that enables open-source as well as proprietary commercial
development, and it is widely used on the Linux platform, where it
provides the underlying widget toolkit used by the KDE desktop
environment. It is also used in a variety of commercial
applications such as Skype, Google Earth, and Adobe Photoshop
Elements.“Some of the most significant features added in Qt 4.4 include a
multimedia abstraction layer, an HTML rendering widget based on
WebKit, a new concurrency framework, and support for rendering
widgets on the toolkit’s drawing canvas. This is also the first Qt
release to include support for Windows CE and Windows
Mobile…”
