I'm studying Donaldson Invariants from chapter 9 of The wild world of 4-manifolds by Scorpan, and I'm looking for an example where they're used to distinguish two 4-manifolds which are homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic.
I know that these invariants are quite hard to compute, and honestly I don't even know where to start in order to find such manifolds; are there any "famous examples" well-known in the literature?
Thank you.

'are there any "famous examples" well-known in the literature?' - examples of 4-manifold pairs that are homeomorphic but not diffeomorphic? If the answer is yes, you can cook up very easy examples. I think what you're interested in are 4-manifold pairs that are both smooth but have different smooth structure. Please correct me if I'm mistaken.

Yes, I'm interested in smooth 4-manifolds that do not admit smooth structures such that they are diffeomorphic, but that are homeomorphic; in the question when I write manifold I always mean "smooth" manifold.
