Remove QmlChanges.txt file
Somehow I don't think changes prior to Qt 4.7.0 RC are that interesting anymore. Change-Id: I42d8bbb5de8ab04796b9f6f313fbb93d0a9c7794 Reviewed-on: http://codereview.qt-project.org/5055 Reviewed-by: Aaron Kennedy <aaron.kennedy@nokia.com> Reviewed-by: Qt Sanity Bot <qt_sanity_bot@ovi.com>

- the same value)
-TextInput and TextEdit:
- - focusOnPress renamed to activeFocusOnPress
-
-=============================================================================
-The changes below are pre Qt 4.7.0 beta 2
-
-QDeclarativeView
- - initialSize() function added
-TextInput and TextEdit:
- - openSoftwareInputPanel() and closeSoftwareInputPanel() functions added
-Flickable:

-properties are now updated when the object changes. An object's property
-"foo" may now be accessed as "foo", modelData.foo" or model.modelData.foo"
-component.createObject has gained a mandatory "parent" argument
-TextEdit and TextInput now have a "selectByMouse" property that defaults to false.
-
-C++ API
--------
-QDeclarativeExpression::value() has been renamed to
-QDeclarativeExpression::evaluate()
-
-The QDeclarativeExpression constructor has changed from
- QDeclarativeExpression(context, expression, scope)
-to
- QDeclarativeExpression(context, scope, expression, parent = 0)
-
-QDeclarativeImageProvider::request() has been renamed to
-QDeclarativeImageProvider::image() and the class can now provide
-both qimages and qpixmaps, and qimages can be served synchronously
-
-QML Viewer
-------------
-The standalone qml executable has been renamed back to Qml Viewer. Runtime warnings
-can be now accessed via the menu (Debugging->Show Warnings).
-
-=============================================================================
-The changes below are pre Qt 4.7.0 beta 1
-
-TextEdit: wrap property is replaced by wrapMode enumeration.
-Text: wrap property is replaced by wrapMode enumeration.
-Removed Q-prefix from validators (IntValidator, DoubleValidator, and RegExpValidator)
-PathView: offset property now uses range 0-1.0 rather than 0-100
-ListView, GridView::positionViewAtIndex() gained a 'mode' parameter
-Removed Qt.playSound (replaced by SoundEffect element)
-Removed Qt.closestAngle (use RotationAnimation instead)
-Removed NumberFormatter
-Removed DateTimeFormatter (use Qt.formatDateTime() instead)
-Using WebView now requires "import QtWebKit 1.0"
-Using Particles now requires "import Qt.labs.particles 1.0"
-AnchorAnimation must now be used to animate anchor changes (and not NumberAnimation)
-Removed ParentAction (use ParentAnimation instead)
-ScriptAction: renamed stateChangeScriptName -> scriptName
-Animation: replace repeat with loops (loops: Animation.Infinite gives the old repeat behavior)
-AnchorChanges: use natural form to specify anchors (anchors.left instead of left)
-AnchorChanges: removed reset property. (reset: "left" should now be anchors.left: undefined)
-PathView: snapPosition replaced by preferredHighlightBegin, preferredHighlightEnd
-createQmlObject: Moved to the Qt object, now use Qt.createQmlObject()
-createComponent: Moved to the Qt object, now use Qt.createComponent()
-
-C++ API
--------
-QDeclarativeContext::addDefaultObject() has been replaced with
-QDeclarativeContext::setContextObject()
-
-Behavior and Animation syntax
------------------------------
-Previously animations and behaviors could be "assigned" to properties like this:
- Item { x: Behavior {}; y: NumberAnimation {} }
-To make it more obvious that these are not regular value assignments a new "on"
-syntax has been introduced:
- Item { Behavior on x {}; NumberAnimation on y {} }
-Only the syntax has changed, the behavior is identical.
-
-EaseFollow renamed to SmoothedFollow
----------------------------------------
-This element shares the internal implementation with SmoothedAnimation,
-both providing the same easing function, but with SmoothedFollow it's
-easier to set a start value to animate intially and then start to follow,
-while SmoothedAnimation is still convenient for using inside Behaviors
-and Transitions.
-
-
-Add SmoothedAnimation element
----------------------------------------
-SmoothedAnimation inherits from NumberAnimaton and as a
-consequence SmoothedAnimation can be used inside Behaviors,
-as PropertySourceValues or in state transitions, like any other animation.
-
-The old EaseFollow properties changed to comply with the other declarative
-animations ('source' changed to 'to'), so now 'to' changes are not
-automatically 'followed' anymore.
-
-If you want to follow an hypothetical rect1, you should do now:
-
- Rectangle {
- color: "green"
- width: 60; height: 60;
- x: rect1.x - 5; y: rect1.y - 5;
- Behavior on x { SmoothedAnimation { velocity: 200 } }
- Behavior on y { SmoothedAnimation { velocity: 200 } }
- }
-
-instead of the old automatic source changed tracking:
-
- Rectangle {
- color: "green"
- width: 60; height: 60;
- EaseFollow on x { source: rect1.x - 5; velocity: 200 }
- EaseFollow on y { source: rect1.y - 5; velocity: 200 }
- }
-
-This is a syntax and behavior change.
-
-
-Script element removed
-----------------------
-Inline Script{} blocks have been deprecated, and will soon be removed entirely.
-If you used Script to write inline javascript code, it can simply be removed.
-For example
-
-Item {
- Script {
- function doSomething() {}
- }
-}
-
-becomes
-
-Item {
- function doSomething() {}
-}
-
-If you used Script to include external JavaScript files, you can replace the
-Script element with an “import” line. For example
-
-MouseArea {
- Script {
- source: “foo.js”
- }
- onClicked: foo()
-}
-
-becomes
-
-import “foo.js” as Foo
-MouseArea {
- onClicked: Foo.foo()
-}
-
-The “as” qualifier is mandatory for script imports (as opposed to type
-imports where it is optional).
-
-
-=============================================================================
-The changes below are pre Qt 4.7.0 alpha
-
-Flickable: renamed viewportWidth -> contentWidth
-Flickable: renamed viewportHeight -> contentHeight
-Flickable: renamed viewportX -> contentX
-Flickable: renamed viewportY -> contentY
-Removed Flickable.reportedVelocitySmoothing
-Renamed MouseRegion -> MouseArea
-Connection: syntax and rename:
- Connection { sender: a; signal: foo(); script: xxx }
- Connection { sender: a; signal: bar(); script: yyy }
- becomes:
- Connections { target: a; onFoo: xxx; onBar: yyy }
-
-ListView::sectionExpression has been replaced by section.property, section.criteria
-
-ListModel
----------
-- types are strictly checked (previously, everything was a string)
- - foo: "bar" continues to work as before
- - foo: bar is now invalid, use foo: "bar"
- - foo: true is now a bool (not string "true")
- - foo: false is now a bool (not string "false" == true!)
-
-PropertyAnimation
-------------------
-matchProperties and matchTargets have been renamed back to properties and targets.
-The semantics are explained in the PropertyAnimation::properties documentation
-and the animation overview documentation.
-
-Easing curves and their parameters are now specified via dot properties:
-* easing.type : enum
-* easing.amplitude : real
-* easing.overshoot : real
-* easing.period : real
-For example:
-PropertyAnimation { properties: "y"; easing.type: "InOutElastic"; easing.amplitude: 2.0; easing.period: 1.5 }
-
-C++ API
--------
-QML_DEFINE_... definition macros, previously global macros, are replaced by
-qmlRegisterType registration functions, which must be called explicitly.
-C++ API users should also consider using the QmlExtensionPlugin (previously
-named QmlModulePlugin) as a cleaner mechanism for publishing libraries of QML
-types, or the upcoming application plugin features of the qmlviewer /
-qmlruntime / qml.
-
-QmlView
--------
-The API of QmlView has been narrowed and its role as a convenience class
-reinforced.
-- remove addItem()
-- remove clearItems() - use 'delete root()'
-- remove reset()
-- resizeContent -> enum ResizeMode { SizeViewToRootObject, SizeRootObjectToView }
-- remove setQml(), qml()
-- rename setUrl(), ur() to setSource(), source()
-- root() -> rootObject(), returns QGraphicsObject rather than QmlGraphicsItem
-- remove quit() signal -> use quit() signal of engine()
-- initialSize() signal removed
-- Added status() to determine status of the internal QmlComponent
-- removed execute() - setSource() will also execute the QML.

-=============================================================================
-The changes below are pre-4.6.0 release.

-QML API Review
-==============
-
-The QML API is being reviewed. This file documents the changes.
-Note that the changes are incremental, so a rename A->B for example may be followed
-by another subsequent rename B->C, if later reviews override earlier reviews.
-
