Synopsis
Qt is the basis for the standard Linux desktop, KDE, and is used by around 150,000 open source developers worldwide. Qt 3.2 non-commercial for Windows is being produced specifically for this book, the authors of which are Qt pioneers and members of Trolltech., Straight from Trolltech, this book covers all one needs to build industrial-strength applications with Qt 3.2.x and C++--applications that run natively on Windows, Linux/UNIX, Mac OS X, and embedded Linux with no source code changes. Includes a CD with the Qt 3.2 toolset and Borland C++ compilers--including a noncommercial Qt 3.2 for Windows available nowhere else., The Only Official Best-Practice Guide to Qt 4.1 Programming Using Trolltech's Qt you can build industrial-strength C++ applications that run natively on Windows, Linux/Unix, Mac OS X, and embedded Linux--without making source code changes. With this book Trolltech insiders have written a start-to-finish guide to getting great results with the most powerful version of Qt ever created: Qt 4.1. Using C++ GUI Programming with Qt 4 you'll discover the most effective Qt 4 programming patterns and techniques as you master key technologies ranging from Qt's model/view architecture to Qt's powerful new 2D paint engine. The authors provide readers with unparalleled insight into Qt's event model and layout system. Then, using realistic examples, they introduce superior techniques for everything from basic GUI development to advanced database and XML integration. Includes new chapters on Qt 4's model/view architecture and Qt's new plugin support, along with a brief introduction to Qtopia embedded programming Covers all Qt fundamentals, from dialogs and windows to implementing application functionality Introduces best practices for layout management and event processing Shows how to make the most of Qt 4's new APIs, including the powerful new 2D paint engine and the new easy-to-use container classes Contains completely updated material in every chapter Presents advanced Qt 4 techniques covered in no other book, from creating both Qt and application plugins to interfacing with native APIs Contains an in-depth appendix on C++/Qt programming for experienced Java developers The accompanying CD-ROM includes the open source edition of Qt 4.1.1 for Windows, Mac, Linux, and many Unixes, as well as MinGW, a set of freely available development tools that can be used to build Qt applications on Windows, and also the source code for the book's examples.

    Ordered from USA and arrived to me in UK about 10 days later. Book appropriately packaged and mostly as described. Was missing the cd as listed but communication with the seller was friendly and polite if not a little confusing - partial refunds are only offered after you start the formal eBay return request process, they aren't capable of giving refunds after simple messaging to customer service. All in all though, great value and a positive transaction. Would interact again 👍

    Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.
