    44     \title How to Report a Bug
       
    45     \brief Information about ways to report bugs in Qt.
       
    46 
       
    47     If you think you have found a bug in Qt, we would like to hear
       
    48     about it so that we can fix it.
       
    49 
       
    50     Before reporting a bug, please check the \l{FAQs}, \l{Platform
       
    51     Notes}, and the \l{Qt Bug Tracker} on the Qt website to see
       
    52     if the issue is already known.
       
    53 
       
    54     The first thing you should do is to sign up for an account for
       
    55     the \l{Qt Bug Tracker}, if you do not already have one. Once you
       
    56     have done that you can submit and track your bug reports and they
       
    57     will be publicly available from the moment you submit them.
       
    58 
       
    59     Always include the following information in your bug report:
       
    60 
       
    61     \list 1
       
    62     \o The name and version number of your compiler
       
    63     \o The name and version number of your operating system
       
    64     \o The version of Qt you are using, and what configure options it was
       
    65        compiled with
       
    66     \o Reliable and clear description on how to reproduce the problem
       
    67     \endlist
       
    68    
       
    69     If possible, please provide a test written using the QtTest module
       
    70     as this will improve the procedure of reproducing your problem and
       
    71     allow the developers to address the issue in a more efficient way.
       
    72 
       
    73     Otherwise, if the problem you are reporting is only visible at run-time,
       
    74     try to create a small test program that shows the problem when run.
       
    75     Often, such a program can be created with some minor changes to one of
       
    76     the many example programs in Qt's examples directory.
       
    77 
       
    78     If you have implemented a bug fix and want to contribute your fix
       
    79     directly, then you can do so through the \l{Public Qt Repository}.
