    Hi,

    I'm trying to build ACE 6.2.6 with QT5.1.1, (upgrade from QT4)
    But I came to the conclusion ACE_QtReactor only is for QT4?
    If this is true, when will QT5 be supported?

    We only support qt4 at this moment and I am not aware of anyone that currently works on support qt5.

    If you would be able to provide some patches to support also qt5
    (without loosing qt4 support), that would be great. Please provide the patches through bugzilla (see http://bugzilla.dre.vanderbilt.edu/)

    I have successfully compiled ACE_QtReactor with qt5 on Ubuntu 18.04 and Linux Mint 19. I had to hack 2 files (QtReactor.h and GNUmakefile.ACE_Qt4Reactor) to successfully complete the compilation. The changes are really minimal and it would not require
    lots of changes to make it compatible with both qt4 and qt5. If anyone interested let me know. Cheers

    ACE 6.4.8 and Qt 5.9.5

    Hi,

    Please open a pull request with the necessary code changes to https://github.com/DOCGroup/ACE_TAO. For the GNUmakefile changes we need the related MPC changes, probably that has to be done in https://github.com/DOCGroup/MPC

    Best regards,
