[solved] QProcess with gnome-terminal

[wernsen]

Hello Comunity,

this is my first post here. I have some problems with the gnome-terminal while using the qprocess.

@ QString program = "gnome-terminal";
QStringList arguments;
arguments << "bash --rcfile /opt/.bashrc-OpenFOAM";

QProcess *proc = new QProcess(this);
proc->start(program, arguments);@

The terminal starts but the rcfile does not load. Is there something I am doing wrong?

Thanks for the help.
Martin

Welcome to the forum!

Does using @ arguments << "bash" << "--rcfile" << "/opt/.bashrc-OpenFOAM"; @ make a difference?

Is this Qt, gnome-terminal or bash output?

[Richard Neal]

Try:
@arguments << "-x" << "bash" << "--rcfile" << "/opt/.bashrc-OpenFOAM";@

Note: I would try on a command line first to ensure the gnome-terminal syntax is correct and works appropriately.

Also, this set of arguments assumes that gnome-terminal and bash are both in your path. Depending on your situation, you might want to use fully qualified paths.

yes it seams to work!! :)
