Quick program to test Qt library version


A new la entry has been added:

Quick program to test Qt library version

Quote:
I was writing a script to install the new version of passmark Burn In. I needed to check
whether whatever version of QT was installed would support it, and if not install
the appropriate libraries.

I have searched and searched for such a Qt version checker.

The normal way to get the version number of an installed library is to use pkg-config

Code:
michael@indigo:~$ pkg-config --modversion QtCore
4.8.5
