Qt 5 Core Compatibility APIs▲
The Qt 5 Core Compat module contains the Qt Core APIs which will be no longer supported in Qt 6 and therefore were removed from Qt 6. The module is provided to facilitate the transition to Qt 6.
Using the Module▲
Using a Qt module requires linking against the module library, either directly or through other dependencies. Several build tools have dedicated support for this, including CMake and qmake.
Building with CMake▲
Use the find_package() command to locate the needed module components in the Qt6 package:
find_package(Qt6 COMPONENTS Core5Compat REQUIRED)
target_link_libraries(mytarget PUBLIC Qt6::Core5Compat)See also the Build with CMake overview.
Building with qmake▲
To configure the module for building with qmake, add the module as a value of the QT variable in the project's .pro file:
QT += core5compatLicenses and Attributions▲
