The duplicated hash tables in QGuiApplicationPrivate and
QApplicationPrivate are now unified into one single hash table in
QGuiApplicationPrivate. This also reduced the number of lookups.
The extra processing needed to keep the touch points' first/lastPos
values in sync is now done only once, in QGuiApplication. This
eliminates the performance penalty (for widget-based apps) that was
introduced during the QPA migration.
As an added bonus the patch adds support for touch events arriving
simultaenously from multiple devices. This was broken before: As there
is no guarantee that two devices/drivers will not send touch points
with the same ID, using structures with only the ID as key is
wrong. The proper key is composed of the device ID (that is, a
QTouchDevice pointer) and the touch point ID.
The exported internal function qt_translateRawTouchEvent() has been
removed. This function cannot work properly in the QPA world: It
injected touches into the widget subsystem (QApplication) only which
is wrong, and would result in half-filled touch events due to not
routing the injected data through QGuiApplication. Autotests using
this function are migrated to
QWindowSystemInterface::handleTouchEvent().

This is Qt version %VERSION%.
Qt is a comprehensive cross-platform C++ application framework. Qt 4
introduces new features and many improvements over the 3.x series. See
http://qt.nokia.com/doc/latest/qt4-intro.html for details.
The Qt 4.x series is not binary compatible or source compatible with
the 3.x series. For more information on porting from Qt 3 to Qt 4, see
http://qt.nokia.com/doc/latest/porting4.html.
INSTALLING Qt
If you have a source package (a .tar.gz, or .zip file), follow the
instructions in the INSTALL file.
On Windows and Mac OS X, if you want to install the precompiled binary
packages, simply launch the package and follow the instructions in the
installation wizard.
For Mac OS X Carbon, the binary package requires Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) or
later and GCC 4.0.1 to develop applications. Its applications will run
on Mac OS X 10.4 and above.
For Mac OS X Cocoa, the binary package requires Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) or
later and GCC 4.0.1 to develop applications. Its applications will run
on Mac OS X 10.5 and above.
If you want to install the precompiled binary package for Symbian,
follow these instructions:
http://qt.nokia.com/doc/%SHORTVERSION%/install-symbian-installer.html
EXAMPLES
Once Qt is installed, we suggest that you take a look at the examples
to see Qt in action.
For desktop computers, run the Qt Examples by opening them in Qt Creator.
For embedded devices, launch the Qt 'fluidlauncher' example, either through
the platforms filebrowser or the built in menu system.
REFERENCE DOCUMENTATION
The Qt reference documentation is available locally in Qt's doc/html
directory. You can use Qt Assistant to view it; to launch Assistant,
type 'assistant' on the command line or use the Start menu. On Mac OS
X, you can find it in /Developer/Applications/Qt. The latest
documentation is available at http://qt.nokia.com/doc/.
SUPPORTED PLATFORMS
For a complete list of supported platforms, see
http://qt.nokia.com/doc/%SHORTVERSION%/supported-platforms.html.
COMMERCIAL EDITIONS
Desktop Edition licensees can use all the modules provided with their
Qt package.
GUI Framework licensees may only use the classes contained in
the QtCore, QtGui (except QGraphicsView), QtTest, QtDBus and
Qt3Support modules.

HOW TO REPORT A BUG
If you think you have found a bug in Qt, we would like to hear about
it so that we can fix it. The Qt bug tracking system is open to the
public at http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/.
Before reporting a bug, please use the bug-tracker's search functions
and consult http://qt.nokia.com/developer/faqs/ to see if the issue is
already known.
Always include the following information in your bug report: the name
and version number of your compiler; the name and version number of
your operating system; the version of Qt you are using, and what
configure options it was compiled with.
If the problem you are reporting is only visible at run-time, try to
create a small test program that shows the problem when run. Often,
such a program can be created with some minor changes to one of the many
example programs in Qt's examples directory, or to the autotests that
are available in the public source repository on http://qt.gitorious.org/.
