In the spirit of being on the bleeding edge, I’ve just finished updating the qcodo examples to work with QCodo beta 3. I’ve also updated QMatrix.

For those who are contemplating updating a project to beta 3, you should know that it is a bit of work depending on the size of your project. There is nothing too difficult, but with a few constants changing names, and a query logic changing, you may have many simple changes to make to your code. So give yourself some time if you plan to bite the bullet and upgrade. In my limited (1 day) experience with beta 3, I will say that the upgrade is worth the effort. The sql query changes look like it will make it very easy to add custom queries to your project. I know there are many other changes, but that’s the one that jumped out and bit me first, and the one that took me the most time to accommodate. I’m not sure yet when I’ll bite the bullet for baseballdata, but I already did for another project I have going.

I just finished releasing QMatrix. It’s at qforge. QMatrix is an extension QPaginated control which displays its datasource across multiple rows and columns as a single item per cell. This is slightly different than QDataGrid which displays a single item per row. My motivation for creating this class was a need to display a bunch of images in a table, but I’m sure there are other interesting uses. You can see QMatrix in action here.
