\title The Feature Definition File

By modifying the configured \c ntqconfig.h file from src/tools, you
can define a subset of the full TQt functionality that you wish to
be available in your installation. The -qconfig option to
configure is used to select the configuration.

Note that such modification is only supported on Qt/Embedded
platforms, where reducing the size of TQt is
important and the application set is often fixed.

The \c ntqconfig.h definition file simply defines macros to disable
features. Some features are dependent on other features and these
dependencies are expressed in \c ntqfeatures.h.

The available options are:

\table
