Initial import from the monolithic Qt.
This is the beginning of revision history for this module. If you want to look at revision history older than this, please refer to the Qt Git wiki for how to use Git history grafting. At the time of writing, this wiki is located here: http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/pages/GitIntroductionWithQt If you have already performed the grafting and you don't see any history beyond this commit, try running "git log" with the "--follow" argument. Branched from the monolithic repo, Qt master branch, at commit 896db169ea224deb96c59ce8af800d019de63f12

+Here is a list of (major) changes in Qt from 0.96 to 0.98.
+As usual, we fixed some bugs and improved the documentation.
+
+
+*************** Changes that might affect runtime behavior *****************
+
+QWidget:
+--------
+ setMinimumSize() and setMaximumSize() now force the widget to
+ a legal size. resize() and setGeometry() obey the widget's
+ minimum/maximum size.
+
+ The default behaviour of QWidget::closeEvent is now to hide the widget,
+ not to delete it as before (which was potentially dangerous). This means
+ that if you have a top level widget and the user closes it via the close
+ box, it will now hide itself if you have not reimplemented closeEvent().
+ See the QWidget::closeEvent() and QCloseEvent documentation for details.
+
+ (There are other changes in QWidget, see below)
+
+
+*************** Changes that might generate compile errors *****************
+************** when compiling old code *****************
+
+Disabled copy constructors and operators=
+-----------------------------------------
+ Copy constructors and operators= are disabled in the classes that cannot
+ be copied (this includes all classes that inherit from QObject). This
+ will let the compiler find bugs in your code, you'll get compile time
+ errors where you most probably would have gotten core dumps before.
+ This change has been done in the following classes:
+
+ QAccel QApplication QBuffer QButton QButtonGroup QCheckBox QClipboard
+ QComboBox QConnection QDataStream QDialog QFile QFileDialog QFrame
+ QGroupBox QIODevice QImageIO QLCDNumber QLabel QLineEdit QListBox
+ QMenuBar QMenuData QMenuItem QMessageBox QMetaObject QObject
+ QPSPrinter QPaintDevice QPainter QPicture QPopupMenu QPrintDialog
+ QPrinter QPushButton QRadioButton QRangeControl QScrollBar QSignal
+ QSocketNotifier QTableView QTextStream QTimer QWidget QWindow
+
+ The other classes all have sensible copy constructors and operators=.
+
+QDate:
+------
+ These were protected, now private:
+ static const char *monthNames[];
+ static const char *weekdayNames[];
+ uint jd;
+
+QListBox:
+---------
+ The internals of QListBox are completely reworked. Definition of custom
+ QListBoxItems is now much easier. This is *not* compatible with the old
+ way of defining custom QLBItems. See the QListBoxItem documentation for
+ details.
+
+QTime:
+------
+ This was protected, now private:
+ uint ds;
+
+*************** Type changes that might generate warnings: *****************
+
+none
+
+***************** Obsoleted functions **********************
+
+none
+
+***************** All other changes from 0.96 to 0.98 **********************
+
+moc:
+----
+ Moc previously gave a syntax error when the word "class" was found
+ in a string outside a class declaration. This bug has now been
+ fixed.
+
+ More moc arguments, check the manpage for details.
+
+QFont:
+------
+ Two new convenience functions; bold() and setBold().
+
+QLabel:
+-------
+ setMargin() and margin() are new. setMargin() specifies a minimum margin
+ when the label contents are justified.
+
+QWidget:
+--------
+ You can specify a custom widget frame for top level widgets, including
+ no frame at all. See the widget constructor doc. for details.
+
+ Qt now has enter and leave events. Reimplement the virtual functions
+ void enterEvent( QEvent * ) and void leaveEvent( QEvent * ) to receive
+ events when the mouse cursor leaves or enters the visible part of the
+ widget.
+
