\brief Qt 5 consists of essential modules, add-on modules, and tools.
\section1 Qt Essentials
Qt essentials define the foundation of Qt on all platforms. They are
available on all supported development platforms and on the tested target
platforms. They will remain source and binary compatible during Qt 5.
Essential modules are general and useful for a majority of Qt applications.
A module that is used for a special purpose is considered an add-on module
even if it is available on all supported platforms.
The following table lists the Qt essentials:
\table 80%
\header
\li Module
\li Description
\row
\li \l{Qt Core}
\li Core non-graphical classes used by other modules.
\row
\li \l{Qt GUI}
\li Base classes for graphical user interface (GUI) components.
Includes OpenGL.
\row
\li \l{Qt Multimedia}
\li Classes for audio, video, radio and camera functionality.
\row
\li \l{Qt Network}
\li Classes to make network programming easier and more portable.
\row
\li \l{Qt QML}
\li Classes for QML and JavaScript languages.
\row
\li \l{Qt Quick}
\li A declarative framework for building highly dynamic applications
with custom user interfaces.
\row
\li \l{Qt SQL}
\li Classes for database integration using SQL.
\row
\li \l{Qt Test}
\li Classes for unit testing Qt applications and libraries.
\row
\li \l{Qt WebKit}
\li Classes for a WebKit2 based implementation and a new QML API.
See also Qt WebKit Widgets in the add-on modules.
\row
\li \l{Qt WebKit Widgets}
\li WebKit1 and QWidget-based classes from Qt 4.
\row
\li \l{Qt Widgets}
\li Classes to extend Qt GUI with C++ widgets.
\endtable
If you use \l qmake to build your projects, the QtCore and QtGui
modules are included by default. To link only against QtCore, add
the following line to your \c .pro file:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_modules.pro 0
On Windows, if you do not use \l qmake
or other build tools such as CMake, you also need to link against
the \c qtmain library.
\section1 Qt Add-Ons
Qt add-on modules bring additional value for specific purposes. These
modules may only be available on some development platform for some target
platforms. Some of them are included in the Qt releases on particular
platforms. Each add-on module specifies its compatibility promise
separately.
The following table lists the Qt add-ons:
\table 80%
\header
\li Module
\li Development Platforms
\li Target Platforms
\li Description
\row
\li \l{Active Qt}
\li Windows
\li
\li Classes for applications which use ActiveX and COM
\row
\li \l{Qt Concurrent}
\li
\li
\li Classes for writing multi-threaded programs without using low-level
threading primitives.
\row
\li \l{Qt D-Bus}
\li Unix
\li
\li Classes for inter-process communication over the D-Bus protocol.
\row
\li \l{Qt Graphical Effects}
\li All
\li
\li Graphical effects for use with Qt Quick 2.
\row
\li \l{Qt Image Formats}
\li All
\li
\li Plugins for additional image formats: TIFF, MNG, TGA, WBMP.
\row
\li \l{Qt OpenGL}
\li
\li
\li OpenGL support classes.
\note Provided to ease porting from Qt 4.x. Please use the QOpenGL
classes in QtGui for new code.
\row
\li \l{Qt Print Support}
\li All

\li Classes to make printing easier and more portable.
\row
\li \l{Qt Quick 1 Reference Documentation}{Qt Declarative}

\li Qt Declarative is provided for \l{Qt 4.8 Reference Documentation}{Qt 4}
compatibility. The documentation is available through the Qt 4.8
\l{Qt Quick 1 Reference Documentation}{Qt Quick} documentation.
\row
\li \l{Qt Script}
\li All
\li

\title The qtmain Library
\ingroup licensing
\ingroup platform-specific
\brief Describes the use and license of the qtmain helper library.
qtmain is a helper library that enables the developer to write a
cross-platform main() function on Windows.
If you do not use \l qmake or other build tools such as CMake, then you
need to link against the \c qtmain library.
\section1 License Information
The QAxContainer module is not covered by the \l{GNU General Public License (GPL)},
the \l{GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL)}, or the
\l{Qt Commercial Edition}{Qt Commercial License}. Instead, it is distributed under
the following license.
