For more details, refer to the online documentation +included in this distribution. The documentation is also available online: + + http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.3 + +The Qt version 5.3 series is binary compatible with the 5.2.x series. +Applications compiled for 5.2 will continue to run with 5.3. + +Some of the changes listed in this file include issue tracking numbers +corresponding to tasks in the Qt Bug Tracker: + + http://bugreports.qt-project.org/ + +Each of these identifiers can be entered in the bug tracker to obtain more +information about a particular change. + +**************************************************************************** +* General * +**************************************************************************** + +General Improvements +-------------------- + +**************************************************************************** +* Library * +**************************************************************************** + +QtBluetooth +----------- + + - Documentation: + * The documentation for the Bluetooth discovery classes has been + improved. + * QBluetoothSocket's local name, port and address property documentation + improved. + * Documentation of all examples improved. + + - General: + * Added a new Object-Push example. + * QML scanner example was optimized for high DPI displays and + error handling was improved. This ensures a better user interface + for Android and BlackBerry devices. + * Replaced tennis example against new QML based PingPong example. + * Test application added. This application enables easier testing + and debugging of the various API features. + + - BluetoothDiscoveryModel: + * Improved error handling of device discovery process. + * Fixed incorrect behavior when changing from device to service discovery + and vice versa. + + - QBluetoothDeviceDiscoveryAgent: + * Added checks and error enum value to avoid incorrect handling of + non-existing local Bluetooth adapter addresses. + + - QBluetoothHostInfo: + * Copy operator added. + + - QBluetoothLocalDevice: + * Added a new API elements to retrieve connected Bluetooth devices + and to receive notifications about connection changes. + + - QBluetoothServiceDiscoveryAgent: + * Fixed the fallback backend's initial state and error values. + * Duplicated code was removed. + * QBluetoothServiceDiscoveryAgent::clear() was improved to avoid + unpredictable class behavior. + + - QBluetoothServer: + * Checks added to avoid calls to listen() while the server socket is + already listening for incoming sockets. + * Fixed inconsistent state() of server object after failed service + registration attempt during listen() call. + * Fixed incorrect parameter type of error() signal. This fixed issues + whereby QObject::connect() could not find the signal. + * Added custom uuid to serial port service SDP data set. This enables + the discovery of such profiles on Android devices. + + - QBluetoothServiceInfo: + * Fixed broken implementation of serviceClassUuids(). + + - QBluetoothSocket: + * Fixed a crash in Bluez part of QBluetoothSocket() which was caused + triggered when calling the sequence connect() - abort() - connect(). + * Fixed missing initialization of the internal socket error state + variable. This caused incorrect QBluetoothSocket::error() right after + class instantiation. + * Synchronized handling of errors across all supported platforms. + + - QBluetoothUuid: + * Fixed wrong value of PnpInformation enum value. + * Added newly defined ServiceClassUuid's defined Bluetooth forum. + + +QtNfc +----- + + - Documentation: + * Added missing documentation to QQmlNdefRecord. + * General documentation fixes add. + + - General: + * Added a new corkboard example displaying the content of NDEF text + records. + * A new NFC share API was added. The API provides sharing of NDEF + messages and arbitrary files via NFC and may potentially use other + communication protocols such as wifi or Bluetooth as part of its + implementation. + + + +**************************************************************************** +* Platform Specific Changes * +**************************************************************************** + +Android +------- + + - [QTBUG-33792] QtBluetooth has been ported to Android. + +BlackBerry 10: + + - [QTBUG-36626] Fixed a memory leak in QBluetoothServer::listen(). + - Fixed incomplete implementation of QBluetoothServer::close(). + - Fixed wrong pairingStatus() returned by QBluetoothLocalDevice. + - Fixed accidental loss of remote device information in QBluetoothServer. + - Added incomplete implementation of QBluetooth::setMaxPendingConnections(). + - Fixed always failing call to QBluetoothServerInfo::unregisterService(). + - Fixed missing emission of ConnectedState by QBluetoothSocket. + - Fixed implementation of QBluetoothTransferManager::put() when using + together with a QFile. + +Bluez/Linux +------- + + - The handling of powered-off local Bluetooth adapters was improved. + - Fixed memory leaks in service and device discovery classes. + - Removed dead code from SDP discovery implementation. + - Fixed crash during service discovery. + - Fixed incorrect invocation of QBluetoothDiscoveryAgent where the + remote service address was incorrectly assumed to be the local Bt + adapter address. This prevented the detection of the remote service. + - Removed caching of QBluetoothSocket::localName() and peerName() values. Under + certain circumstances those functions returned wrong values. + - Fixed missing update of internal QBluetoothSocket::state during SDP discovery. + - Removed assertion during service discovery due to unknown SDP attribute. + - Prevented calls to QBluetoothSocket::connectToService() while the socket + is already in the ServiceLoockupState. + - Fixed failing call to QBluetoothServer::listen(QBluetoothAddress) if the passed + address was null. + + + |
