### enum QSysInfo::WinVersion

This enum is obsolete. It is provided to keep old source code working. We strongly advise against using it in new code.

This enum provides symbolic names for the various versions of the Windows operating system. On Windows, the QSysInfo::WindowsVersion variable gives the version of the system on which the application is run.

MS-DOS-based versions:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`QSysInfo::WV_32s` | `0x0001` | Windows 3.1 with Win 32s
`QSysInfo::WV_95` | `0x0002` | Windows 95
`QSysInfo::WV_98` | `0x0003` | Windows 98
`QSysInfo::WV_Me` | `0x0004` | Windows Me

NT-based versions (note that each operating system version is only represented once rather than each Windows edition):

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`QSysInfo::WV_NT` | `0x0010` | Windows NT (operating system version 4.0)
`QSysInfo::WV_2000` | `0x0020` | Windows 2000 (operating system version 5.0)
`QSysInfo::WV_XP` | `0x0030` | Windows XP (operating system version 5.1)
`QSysInfo::WV_2003` | `0x0040` | Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Home Server, Windows XP Professional x64 Edition (operating system version 5.2)
`QSysInfo::WV_VISTA` | `0x0080` | Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 (operating system version 6.0)
`QSysInfo::WV_WINDOWS7` | `0x0090` | Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2 (operating system version 6.1)
`QSysInfo::WV_WINDOWS8` | `0x00a0` | Windows 8 (operating system version 6.2)
`QSysInfo::WV_WINDOWS8_1` | `0x00b0` | Windows 8.1 (operating system version 6.3), introduced in Qt 5.2
`QSysInfo::WV_WINDOWS10` | `0x00c0` | Windows 10 (operating system version 10.0), introduced in Qt 5.5

Alternatively, you may use the following macros which correspond directly to the Windows operating system version number:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`QSysInfo::WV_4_0` | `WV_NT` | Operating system version 4.0, corresponds to Windows NT
`QSysInfo::WV_5_0` | `WV_2000` | Operating system version 5.0, corresponds to Windows 2000
`QSysInfo::WV_5_1` | `WV_XP` | Operating system version 5.1, corresponds to Windows XP
`QSysInfo::WV_5_2` | `WV_2003` | Operating system version 5.2, corresponds to Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Home Server, and Windows XP Professional x64 Edition
`QSysInfo::WV_6_0` | `WV_VISTA` | Operating system version 6.0, corresponds to Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008
`QSysInfo::WV_6_1` | `WV_WINDOWS7` | Operating system version 6.1, corresponds to Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2
`QSysInfo::WV_6_2` | `WV_WINDOWS8` | Operating system version 6.2, corresponds to Windows 8
`QSysInfo::WV_6_3` | `WV_WINDOWS8_1` | Operating system version 6.3, corresponds to Windows 8.1, introduced in Qt 5.2
`QSysInfo::WV_10_0` | `WV_WINDOWS10` | Operating system version 10.0, corresponds to Windows 10, introduced in Qt 5.5

The following masks can be used for testing whether a Windows version is MS-DOS-based or NT-based:

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`QSysInfo::WV_DOS_based` | `0x000f` | MS-DOS-based version of Windows
`QSysInfo::WV_NT_based` | `0x00f0` | NT-based version of Windows
`QSysInfo::WV_None` | `0x0000` | Operating system other than Windows.
