Good dig on the SMP there Frank. ;)

Just to clarify for people...there was a mistake in the packaging of the
Dinkum C++ libs in the NC edition where libcpp.so.2a was not included in the
distribution.  You can not, however, target the Dinkum C++ lib from NC, just
run binaries built with it.  So if you are building Qt apps on 6.2 vs. libs
from 6.1 and the 6.1 libs are built against dinkum, you are in trouble.  I
am not sure what Qt is built against.

I don't have the PE version, and am not sure it has the same problem.
Being just a QNX hobbist, I can't justify the cost to my "boss". She
would rather use the money to feed the kids :)
On the other hand, it is probably NOT a good idea to have PE.
I certainly don't want my ported applications stop running for those
free NC users. cdm and the 3rd party CD got bitten by this already.

As far as Qt goes, my guess is PE may have a better chance than
NC because PE includes the Dinkum C++ support. Still, it probably
won't just work, because rumor said 6.2PE changed the C++ default
to GNU, while 6.1 C++ defaults to Dinkum ...

To answer johan, no I've never heard a word from Trolltech. They
are probably mad at me because my work took away their revenue from
the customer engineering work for QNX :)
