Hi,
Can we drop GCC 4.7 from the list of supported compilers for 5.10? It has a
bug that makes writing constexpr classes like QSizePolicy, QUuid, ... very
annoying:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54922
If we can drop MSVC 2013, too, we can start to use char16_t unconditionlly,
which will make QStringViewLiteral obsolete, as we can just write u"foo"
everywhere. It will also simplify a lot of other code that currently needs to
fall back to wchar_t on Windows / MSVC 2013.
Thanks,
Marc
