\title Supported Platforms
\brief The platforms supported by Nokia for Qt.
\ingroup platform-specific
\group platform-details
Qt is a cross-platform application and UI framework. Using Qt,
you can write GUI applications once and deploy them
across desktop, mobile and embedded operating systems without
rewriting the source code.
\section1 Qt is Available for the Following Platforms
\table
\header
\li {2,1} Qt Cross Platform Support
\header
\li {1,1} Desktop
\li {1,1} Mobile/Embedded
\row
\li \l{Support for Windows}{Windows}
\row
\li \l{Support for Linux/X11}{Linux/X11}
\row
\li \l{Support for Mac OS X}{Mac OS X}
\endtable
\section1 Supported Platform Details
Qt is supported on a variety of 32-bit and 64-bit platforms, and can
usually be built on each platform with GCC, a vendor-supplied compiler, or
a third party compiler.
\tableofcontents
Information about the specific platforms Qt runs on, and the compilers used
on each platform, can be found on the \l{Platform and Compiler Notes} page.
\section1 Tested Platforms
All Tested platforms are subjected to our unit test suite and other internal
testing tools on a frequent basis (prior to new version releases, source tree
branching, and at other significant period points in the development process).
Errors or bugs discovered in these platforms are prioritized for correction.
Significant errors discovered in Tested platforms can impact release dates.
\table
\header \li Platform
\li Compilers
\row \li Ubuntu Linux 11.04 (32-bit)
\li As provided by Ubuntu
\row \li Ubuntu Linux 11.04 (64-bit)
\li As provided by Ubuntu
\row \li Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit)
\li MSVC 2010 SP1
\row \li Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)
\li MSVC 2010 SP1
\row \li Apple Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" (32-bit)
\li Gcc as provided by Apple
\row \li Apple Mac OS X 10.7 "Lion" (64-bit)
\li Clang as provided by Apple
\endtable
All platforms not specifically listed above are not tested by the Qt Project. The
Qt Project does not run its unit test suite or perform any other internal tests on
platforms not listed above. However Qt may run on platforms other than those actively
tested on, and additional platforms may be raised to tested state, if sufficient
effort is made to get continuous integration in an acceptable state on that particular
platform.
There may be various open source projects, community users and/or Qt partners who
are able to provide assistance with platforms not listed above.
\section1 General Legal Disclaimer
Please note that Qt is offered on an "as is" basis without warranty
of any kind and that our products are not error or bug free. To the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law, Nokia on behalf of itself and its suppliers, disclaims all
warranties and conditions, either express or implied, including, but not limited to,
implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and
non-infringement with regard to the Licensed Software.
