| 30 | \title How to Report a Bug
|
|---|
| 31 | \brief Information about ways to report bugs in Qt.
|
|---|
| 32 |
|
|---|
| 33 | If you think you have found a bug in Qt, we would like to hear
|
|---|
| 34 | about it so that we can fix it.
|
|---|
| 35 |
|
|---|
| 36 | Before reporting a bug, please check the \l{FAQs}, \l{Platform
|
|---|
| 37 | and Compiler Notes}, and the \l{Qt Bug Tracker} on the Qt website to see
|
|---|
| 38 | if the issue is already known.
|
|---|
| 39 |
|
|---|
| 40 | The first thing you should do is to sign up for an account for
|
|---|
| 41 | the \l{Qt Bug Tracker}, if you do not already have one. Once you
|
|---|
| 42 | have done that you can submit and track your bug reports and they
|
|---|
| 43 | will be publicly available from the moment you submit them.
|
|---|
| 44 |
|
|---|
| 45 | Always include the following information in your bug report:
|
|---|
| 46 |
|
|---|
| 47 | \list 1
|
|---|
| 48 | \o The name and version number of your compiler
|
|---|
| 49 | \o The name and version number of your operating system
|
|---|
| 50 | \o The version of Qt you are using, and what configure options it was
|
|---|
| 51 | compiled with
|
|---|
| 52 | \o Reliable and clear description on how to reproduce the problem
|
|---|
| 53 | \endlist
|
|---|
| 54 |
|
|---|
| 55 | If possible, please provide a test written using the QtTest module
|
|---|
| 56 | as this will improve the procedure of reproducing your problem and
|
|---|
| 57 | allow the developers to address the issue in a more efficient way.
|
|---|
| 58 |
|
|---|
| 59 | Otherwise, if the problem you are reporting is only visible at run-time,
|
|---|
| 60 | try to create a small test program that shows the problem when run.
|
|---|
| 61 | Often, such a program can be created with some minor changes to one of
|
|---|
| 62 | the many example programs in Qt's examples directory.
|
|---|
| 63 |
|
|---|
| 64 | If you have implemented a bug fix and want to contribute your fix
|
|---|
| 65 | directly, then you can do so through the \l{Public Qt Repository}.
