****************************************************************************
*                      Platform Specific Changes                           *
****************************************************************************

Qt for Linux/X11
----------------

 - [QTBUG-15008] Fix broken prefix setting in configure when EPOCROOT shell
   variable is set.

Qt for Windows
--------------

 - QtQuick
    * [QTBUG-16885] QDeclarativeEngine::addImportPath() did not work if the
      drive letter is in lowercase.
    * [QTBUG-17360] Make sure $QTDIR/plugins/qmldebugging/tcpserver.dll is
      found in windows release builds.

Qt for Mac OS X
---------------

 - [QTBUG-13772] Returning form fullscreen mode causes assertion failure.
 - [QTBUG-14023] Added missing plugins to debug-libs package.
 - [QTBUG-14420] Switching from an application with undocked widgets hid the
   application.
 - [QTBUG-15638] Fixed incorrect QComboBox drop-down menu Z-ordering.
 - [QTBUG-15666] Fixed crash when closing QFontDialog::getFont() dialog before
   its event loop finished.
 - [QTBUG-16279] Fixed deadlock in QSyntaxHighlighter::highlightBlock.

Qt for Symbian
--------------

 - Multimedia
    * [QTBUG-17040] Prevent menu and native title pane area popping up when
      setting fullscreen mode off during video playback.
 - Packaging changes
    * [QTBUG-17399] Remove sqlite3 from Qt SIS for S60 3.2 and 5.0 to allow
      Nokia Content Signing, which doesn't permit sis files to have other
      sis files embedded inside.
 - Paging changes
    * [QT-3503] Remove PAGED keyword from all Qt-based binaries for
      MMP-based build systems (abld, SBSv2 (a.k.a. Raptor)).
      This changes the code paging field in the Symbian (E32Image) header
      from "paged" to "default".  Thus it is left to the configuration
      of the particular device whether paging is used for the binary or
      not.  All devices that support code paging should have it turned
      on (the value is stored in the HAL, so can be checked using eg.
      fshell); data paging may or may not be turned on depending on the
      device characteristics.  Leaving both code and data paging as
      "default" means that any limitations in the device (eg. around
      flash wear) can be controlled by that device by disabling the
      appropriate types of paging rather than being forced by the binary
      (which may be deployed to several different devices with different
      characteristics).
 - Phonon MMF backend
   * [QTBUG-11436] Added a MediaObject property which allows the client to
     specify which Internet Access Point should be used for streaming.
 - QApplication
   * [QTBUG-15915] Fix crash when creating more than one QApplication in single
     test case.

     crash on Symbian devices.

   * [QTBUG-16277] Fix fullscreen/Maximized dialog misplacement in Symbian.

     symbian.conf.
   * [QTBUG-16172] Use relative include instead of absolute in default
     qmake.conf.
   * [QTBUG-16221] Fix libinfixed usage in Symbian when def files are used.
   * [QTBUG-16261] Fix infinite loop in qmake when reading malformed .ts files.
