Qt4 on a Qt3 based system
Message 1 in thread
Hello again
It appears I was able to send the last message, so will try again
with a doubt I have... long time ago when the times of Qt2 based
systems it was possible to install Qt3 on a different location and
have both versions up and working. When arised the Qt3 based systems
it was not a good idea anymore to upgrade to Qt3+ versions since KDE
stopped working, or at least most applications crashed. The solution
people told me in a Linux mailing list was to recompile the whole KDE
and that was taking me to recompile a large chain of related software
so decided to stop upgrading for tests.
Currently, found that there is available a version Qt4.x and my
system is Qt3 based, so would like to know if it is possible to have
both versions just like the old times with Qt2 and Qt3, and... if the
header files from Qt3 would interfer with the Qt4 ones or can be
handled by setting some environment vars.
Thanx very much!!

Yes. I have both Qt 3.x and Qt 4.0 running on OpenBSD 3.6.

No. They are in different include directories.
