We have designed our internal testing procedure to + divide platforms into three test categories (Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3) in order + to prioritize internal testing and development resources so that the most + frequently used platforms are subjected to our most rigorous testing processes. + + Qt is supported on a variety of 32-bit and 64-bit platforms, and can + usually be built on each platform with GCC, a vendor-supplied compiler, or + a third party compiler. Although Qt may be built on a range of platform-compiler + combinations, only a subset of these are actively supported by Nokia. + + \tableofcontents + + Information about the specific platforms Qt runs on can be found on the + \l{Platform Notes} page. Information about the compilers used on each platform + can be found on the \l{Compiler Notes} page. + + \section1 Tier 1 Platforms + + All Tier 1 platforms are subjected to our unit test suite and other internal + testing tools on a frequent basis (prior to new version releases, source tree + branching, and at other significant period points in the development process). + Errors or bugs discovered in these platforms are prioritized for correction + by the development team. Significant errors discovered in Tier 1 platforms can + impact release dates and Qt Development Frameworks strives to resolve all known + high priority errors in Tier 1 platforms prior to new version releases. + + \table + \header \o Platform + \o Compilers + \row \o Linux (32 and 64-bit) + \o gcc 4.2 + \row \o Microsoft Windows XP + \o gcc 3.4.2 (MinGW) (32-bit), MSVC 2003, 2005 (32 and 64-bit) + \row \o Microsoft Windows Vista + \o MSVC 2005, 2008 + \row \o Microsoft Windows Vista 64bit + \o MSVC 2008 + \row \o Apple Mac OS X 10.5 "Leopard" x86_64 (Carbon, Cocoa 32 and 64bit) + \o As provided by Apple + \row \o Embedded Linux QWS (ARM) + \o gcc (\l{http:\\www.codesourcery.com}{Codesourcery version)} + \row \o Windows CE 5.0 (ARMv4i, x86, MIPS) + \o MSVC 2005 WinCE 5.0 Standard (x86, pocket, smart, mipsii) + \endtable + + \section1 Tier 2 Platforms + + Tier 2 platforms are subjected to our unit test suite and other internal testing + tools prior to release of new product versions. Qt users should note, however, + that errors may be present in released product versions for Tier 2 platforms and, + subject to resource availability, known errors in Tier 2 platforms may or may not + be corrected prior to new version releases. + + \table + \header \o Platform + \o Compilers + \row \o Apple Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger" + \o As provided by Apple + \row \o HPUXi 11.11 + \o aCC 3.57, gcc 3.4 + \row \o HPUXi 11.23 + \o aCC 6.10 + \row \o Solaris 10 UltraSparc + \o Sun Studio 12 + \row \o AIX 6 + \o Power5 xlC 7 + \row \o Microsoft Windows XP + \o Intel Compiler + \row \o Linux + \o Intel Compiler + \row \o Embedded Linux QWS (Mips, PowerPC) + \o gcc (\l{http:\\www.codesourcery.com}{Codesourcery version)} + \row \o Windows CE 6.0 (ARMv4i, x86, MIPS) + \o MSVC 2008 WinCE 6.0 Professional + \endtable + + \section1 Tier 3 Platforms (Not supported by Nokia) + + All platforms not specifically listed above are not supported by Nokia.

Qt users should note, however, that there may be various open source + projects, community users and/or Qt partners who are able to provide assistance with + platforms not supported by Nokia. + + \section1 General Legal Disclaimer + + Please note that Qt Software’s products are offered on an "as is" basis without warranty + of any kind and that our products are not error or bug free.
