The Qt 5.9 LTS release has been announced for general availability. This version comes with huge feature updates and performance improvements. This version comes with a large number of bug fixes with a focus on stability. This makes sense seeing this version is a LTS (Long Term Support). This gives it a lifeline of 3 years support.<\/p>\n

Qt<\/a> is a framework for developing cross platform applications using mainly C, C++, QML <\/a>and JavaScript<\/a>. It supports Desktop, MObile and Embedded development.<\/p>\n

Highlights of the Qt 5.9 LTS Release<\/h2>\n

First off, the code base is now built with C++11<\/a> compliant compiler. This make the code base more modern over the previous Qt 5.6 LTS release. This is the version that has added the Qt Lite configuration system and introduced a major improved graphics architecture.<\/p>\n

This release introduces support for Visual Studio 2017 compiler on Windows. There is also new added support for HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security) in the Qt Network module.<\/p>\n

Under Qt QML and Quick there is a brand new garbage collector and a new QML caching infrastructure which have improved performance. Qt Quick also uses the new OpenGL<\/a> shader cache for improved application startup times.<\/p>\n

Qt Webengine is now uses Chromium 56. The maps in Qt Location and Positioning can now be rotated and tilted through touch gestures.<\/p>\n

QNX 7.0 support has been included in this Qt 5.9 LTS Release. To get the full scope of changes you can check out the official release page here.<\/p>\n

You can also download a copy of this framework from the official download page here<\/a> or through the Qt account portal here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
