    I want to know how to upgrade to qt 4.8 from 4.7 having downloaded the qt 4.8 library. I mean, can I use the library to run qt 4.8 examples programs?

    Of course you can use the Qt 4.8 libraries to run the examples that come with 4.8

    4.8.x binary libraries (built with a matching compiler) can be used as a drop-in replacement for any earlier Qt 4 binary library. Applications built to run with Qt 4.7 will run using the later libraries: the reverse is not generally the case.
