How to launch a file browser in a Qt application?

[mohamaddanesh44]

I want to have a button that, when clicked, launches a file browser (like Ctrl + O in Word) and returns the path of the file that user opens.

it's better to give source code to understand
thanks

Have a look at "QFileDialog":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtwidgets/qfiledialog.html:

bq. The QFileDialog class provides a dialog that allow users to select files or directories.

Did you open the link leon.anavi posted?
The most important Qt docs also provide source code examples.

[mohamaddanesh44]

source codes would be appriciated

As raven-worx said, you have all the code examples needed in the "documentation":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtwidgets/qfiledialog.html#details asking for them again means that you didn't take the time to read them. Doing so won't encourage people to help you.

There is lots of code that won't help you, and lots that will. You have to pick to the best of your knowledge. Others may help you decide.

Is there a specific reason why you need a solution handed to you? Everybody was a beginner once, that's no shame!

i want it to have a button for attach some files

Then go have a look at "QPushButton":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qpushbutton.html and "QFileDialog":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qfiledialog.html .
This very simple use case is described in the documentation of those classes. Also there are lots of "Qt examples":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/all-examples.html that demostrate this.

Have you even tried to look for yourself?

i dont have enough time to read docs. it's force major

[thEClaw]

A forced major?

@void openWindow()
{
QMessageBox m;
m.setText(QString::fromLatin1(QByteArray::fromBase64("QW0gSSBsYXp5IGFzIGhlbGw/")));
m.setWindowTitle("Choose one:");
m.setStandardButtons((QMessageBox::StandardButton)0x4000 | (QMessageBox::StandardButton)0x1000);
m.setDefaultButton((QMessageBox::StandardButton)0x4000);
m.setEscapeButton((QMessageBox::StandardButton)0x4000);
m.button((QMessageBox::StandardButton)0x1000)->setDisabled(true);
m.addButton("attach some files", (QMessageBox::ButtonRole)(-1))->hide();
m.exec();
}@

And, for reference: "click":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.1/qtwidgets/qfiledialog.html#getOpenFileNames

You don't have time to read but you have time to wait one complete day to get an answer in a forum ? Hopeless.
