could you provide ubuntu 18.04 based binaries ?

Thanks for correcting the subject.

Thanks for providing linux variant.

For windows: ADTF 3.5.0 is still based on VC140 and our tool chain is also based on VC140 compiler. Is it possible to provide a (Windows 10, VC140, RelWithDebInfo) variant?

It is just a windows binary, it will work also with ADTF 3.5.0 / IFHD 0.4.1.
You do the same with not official supported Windows 10 (ADTF 3.5.0 is supported on Windows 7).

As already mentioned, it is just for you to stay productive and must be exchanged with official ADTF 3.6.0 Release.
ADTF 3.6.0 (and also used IFHD / ADTF File Library 0.5.0) will be VS 2017 VC141.

Reason:
We should and must support Windows 10.
Windows 10 comes with a lot of scaling trouble regarding High-DPI.
Qt 5.9.x could not handle this -> Upgrade to Qt 5.12.x
But, Qt 5.12.x changed the WebEngine and it will only be available for VS 2017 VC141 and not for VS 2015 VC140 anymore.

This has been discussed with customer forum and the main target is official Windows 10 support, so we have to change.
And you please as well, mix up different adtfplugins / adtffileplugins will work as long as it consumes the same dependencies - this could not be guaranteed and supported.

Short:
Please adapt your toolchain as soon as possible.
For now, you can use the binary as well, no trouble.
But for implementing it must be VS 2017 VC141.

Yes from vc140 compiler onward, visual studio supports cross linking of various binaries unless there is a change in major version.

Just out of curiosity, how much does Qt5.12.x version improves from Qt 5.9.x with respect to high dpi support?

Based on my understanding according to qt documentation, qt supports high dpi from qt 5.6 onward.
From 5.9.x to 5.12.x, there were not any major changes in high dpi functionality except the support for high dpi based window themes introduced in qt 5.10

Yes from vc140 compiler onward, visual studio supports cross linking of various binaries unless there is a change in major version.

Yes the ABI is compatible since Update 3 of VS 2015.
But you will getting trouble consuming differnet libraries (as Qt does).
Furthermore, you can not compile with VS2015 vc140 against a VS2017 vc141 SDK (like ADTF).
It only work the other way (e.g. right now using VS 2017 with ADTF 3.5.0).
But because of Qt it was not possible to stay VS 2015 vc140 Update 3 as already mentioned.

Just out of curiosity, how much does Qt5.12.x version improves from Qt 5.9.x with respect to high dpi support?

The changes had been in 5.11, but this is not LTS so we need 5.12

Anyway... is your topic solved ?

Thanks for your support.
