It doesn't harm, though, -to also remove global statics from executables, because they're usually evil. - -The same goes for DTORs at library unload time. A good way to fix them is by using `Q_GLOBAL_STATIC`. - - -[1] The term "POD" is too strict. The correct term is "types with a trivial dtor and trivial ctor", and that's how this check is implemented. |
