A. Obtaining and Installing Qt

This appendix explains how to obtain and install a GPL edition of Qt onto your system. Editions are available for Windows, Mac OS X, and X11 (for Linux and most versions of Unix). The pre-built binaries for Windows and Mac OS X include SQLite, a public domain in-process database, together with a SQLite driver. The versions built from source can include SQLite at your option.
