__v3.0a__
--------
2016-08-10 09:42:46 +08:00
* Depricated secondary instances count.
* Added a sendMessage() method to send a message to the primary instance.
* Added a receivedMessage() signal, emmited when a message is received from a
secondary instance.
* The SingleApplication constructor's third parameter is now a bool
specifying if the current instance should be allowed to run as a secondary
instance of there is already a primary instance.
* The SingleApplication constructor accept a fourth parameter specifying if
the SingleApplication block should be User-wide or System-wide.
* SingleApplication no longer relies on `applicationName` and
`organizationName` to be set. It instead concatenates all of the following
data and computes a `SHA256` hash which is uses as the key for the
`QSharedMemory` block and the `QLocalServer`. Since at least
`applicationFilePath` is always present there is no need to explicitly set
any of these prior to initialising `SingleApplication`.
* QCoreApplication::applicationName
* QCoreApplication::applicationVersion
* QCoreApplication::applicationFilePath
* QCoreApplication::organizationName
* QCoreApplication::organizationDomain
* User name or home directory path if in User mode
* The primary instance is no longer notified when a secondary instance had
been started by default. An setting for this feature exists.
* Added instanceNumber() which represents a unique identifier for each
secondary instance started. When called from the primary instance will
return `0`.
