Yes, it's changed; no, it's not deprecation. What's been removed is the conversion. Aside from the numeric types, comparing two variants of different types will always result in false. If you want to compare across types, convert one to the other's type or to a common third type. You know what data you put in there and you should know what conversions can be lossy or not. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel DPG Cloud Engineering _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/development
