Version 8.2 of uChmViewer, a fork of KchmViewer, is now available. This program allows viewing files in chm (MS HTML help) and epub formats. The release adds support for KDE Framework 5 instead of KDE4 and initial support for Qt6 instead of Qt4. The fork includes several enhancements that were not incorporated and likely will not be included in the main KchmViewer.
Key Changes:
- The fork has been renamed to uChmViewer. Additionally, the code update check has been removed.
- Support for Qt4 and KDE4 has been discontinued in the main branch. Qt4-specific code has been removed.
- Support for KDE Framework 5 has been added using KDELibs4Support.
- Limited support for Qt6 has been introduced. The application is built with Qt 6.2, but this required disabling printing and page search, as well as relying on default settings when browsing pages.
- An option USE_DBUS has been added to the CMake build script. This option allows enabling/disabling D-Bus support on any platform where this technology is available. Previously, D-Bus support was only available on Linux.
