* Drop Qt3 supportIvan Tkachenko2021-11-271-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | QDoc does not need those defines anymore because there is no Qt3Support library anymore; they are simply not #ifdef guarding any code anymore. Task-number: QTBUG-98650 Change-Id: I42b9c3ce025f639ce6282102b5eadb52fea7fa8e Reviewed-by: Ulf Hermann <ulf.hermann@qt.io>
* Long live Q_GADGET_EXPORT!Marc Mutz2021-11-271-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Like Q_NAMESPACE_EXPORT for Q_NAMESPACE, this variant of Q_GADGET allows passing an export macro. This is useful to avoid exporting the whole class just to get the staticMetaObject hidden therein exported. Before anyone asks: No, we don't need Q_OBJECT_EXPORT, because QObject subclasses, being polymorphic, always need to have a class-level export macro (to export their vtable), but while that technique also works for value classes (the Q_GADGET audience), it is not desirable for them, because it makes inline functions exported in Windows debug builds, which is not what we want, because it needlessly restricts what you can to with the inline functions (e.g. remove). [ChangeLog][QtCore] Added the Q_GADGET_EXPORT macro, which is like Q_GADGET, but allows passing an export macro (like Q_NAMESPACE_EXPORT for Q_NAMESPACE).

* Doc: Update Microsoft's Documentation LinksLuca Di Sera2021-09-231-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The documentation links on `msdn.microsoft.com` now redirect to `docs.microsoft.com`. While the redirection works, our script to catch broken links on dev-snapshots builds of the documentation doesn't handle redirection correctly, reporting it as broken. Both to appease the broken-links script and to avoid an unneccesary redirection, the links were modified to point to the equivalent address in the new domain. Furthermore, the link to the `Winsock 2 Socket Handle` was moved to be an `\externalpage` link, as it was used in two different places. Additionally, the `\externalpage` link titled `Dirext X SDK` was removed as it was not used in any part of the documentation.

* Doc: Centralize RFC documentation-links in rfc.qdocLuca Di Sera2021-09-161-0/+95
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the effort of repairing broken links as per QTBUG-96127, a series of RFC links referring to `tools.ietf.org/html/*` were modified to point to the new address that the site redirected to. To simplify executing a similar task and to diminish the duplication of manually inserted urls, the already existing `rfc.qdoc` file, containing `\externalpage` commands directing to RFC locations, was enhanced with links to all RFCs that were mentioned in the current documentation, so as to aggregate this common category of links. All links pointing to a `ietf` domain inside QDoc documentation blocks were then changed to use the newly provided external-references.
