[Qt-interest] Configure QtDesigner ui.h

[Scott Aron Bloom]

Not using boost is actually very typical from many of my clients...

 

While the install overhead is not trivial.  It doesn't "check into the
repository" easily is another...  

 

Its free in cost, but not in overhead..

 

Also, IMO opinion, its coding style scusk.. sorry.. If boost was written
using a Qt style coding style, ie easy to read and code to.. I might be
able to convince more people...

 

But I can say, I have never lost a client because I push and advocate
Qt.  I would have if I did for boost.

	Then you've been giving your clients very bad advice indeed.
auto_ptr is deprecated in C++0x and a failed design. Do not use it.

		 

		Use boost::scoped_ptr,

	
	Obviously requires Boost :)

And you can't use boost because...? Seriously it's free and an single
installer away. The advantages of the shared pointer and hash classes
alone outweigh any downsides and works across platform, providing tr1/2
features where they might not exist (OSX).

 

		std::unique_ptr

	
	Requires C++0x

 

Or boost (boost::scoped_ptr = std::unique_ptr)









or a similar managed pointer.


QScopedPointer

 

I didn't mention the Qt pointers because they seem to have issues with
forward-declared classes. MSVC doesn't complain but GCC warns that
virtual destructors will NOT be called. I don't trust them.
