GammaRay 3.3 Released

GammaRay 3.3 is now available.

GammaRay is a tool for developers working with the Qt framework, offering deep inspection capabilities that help you analyze, debug, and understand your applications at runtime. It provides insight into the behavior and state of Qt objects while the application is running, allowing for efficient troubleshooting, performance tuning, and exploration of complex UI or logic issues.

What’s new in GammaRay 3.3

Version 3.3 introduces several updates aimed at maintaining compatibility with current Qt versions and improving stability across platforms.

GammaRay has dropped support for Qt 5, with the minimum supported version now set to Qt 6.5. For developers who still rely on Qt 5, the 3.2 branch will continue to receive maintenance releases where necessary, including critical bug fixes and backports. This transition allows GammaRay to focus on modern Qt capabilities and simplifies ongoing development.

On Windows, support for LLVM MinGW has been added, expanding the range of supported toolchains. A long-standing issue where the GammaRay user interface would occasionally fail to appear on Windows has also been resolved.

Additional improvements include updating the LZ4 compression library to version 1.10.0 and fixing build compatibility with Qt 6.10, ensuring GammaRay continues to integrate smoothly with the latest Qt releases.

You can find the full list of changes and downloads for this release on GitHub.

We look forward to feedback from users as they integrate GammaRay 3.3 into their workflows and encourage those still on older Qt versions to follow the 3.2 branch for continued support.
