The QtCreator 1.2 release contains bug fixes and new features.

Below is a list of relevant changes. You can find a complete list of changes
within the logs of QtCreator's sources. Simply check it out from the public git
repository e.g.,

git clone git://gitorious.org/qt-creator/qt-creator.git
git log --pretty=oneline v1.1.0..v1.2.0

This release introduces source and binary incompatible changes to the plugin
API, so if you have created your own custom plugins, they will need to be
adapted accordingly.

General:
   * The Welcome Screen has been redesigned
   * There has been some speed improvements: large amounts of persistent data
     (e.g., Qt Locator's cache) is now stored in an SQLite database

   * There is now an option for listing methods alphabetically in the combo box
     above the editor

   * It is now possible to disable Ctrl+Click navigation
   * An optional XCode-style tab indentation has been added
   * Ui changes now propagate immediately to the code model
   * Fixed possibly missing code completion with MinGW toolchain
   * Added option for turning off antialiasing of text editor fonts
   * It is now possible to search within the text editor using regular
     expressions
   * Added an action to delete a line without copying it
   * Added actions to copy a line up/down (Ctrl+Alt+Up/Down)

Building and Running
   * Added option to auto-save before build
   * Added option to run without building
   * Added ability to set environment variables specific for running
   * Fixed bug that prevented use of Qt 4 with version < 4.2

   * Added command line options to attach to process ids
   * Further improved dumpers; do additional memory checking on Windows to
     avoid crashes for speedup
