Projects/Games/Porting to libkdegames v5

This document describes the changes introduced with libkdegames v5, which first appeared in the KDE 4.9 release.

New components

• KgSound provides a simple API for playback of short event sounds. Low latency is achieved through the use of OpenAL, with a Phonon fallback if the required libraries are not available.

Removed components

• The KGGZ framework has been removed completely.
• KGameLCD — Use QLCDNumber instead.
• KGameMisc — Instead of a random name, we advise to use generic names where appropriate.
• KGameProgress — Use QProgressBar instead.
• KGameSvgDigits — If you need SVG digits, include them in your own SVG theme.
• KGrid2D — You'll need to do the math yourself.
