Send file to trash

[Sikarjan]

Hi,

I am looking for a method to move files to trash instead of deleting them. I have read in quite a few post that there is nothing implemented in Qt but the post are all old. Did something change in the last years? Is there a cross platform solution now for moving files to trash?

Hi, friend, welcome devnet.

Good Question.

Maybe the stackoverflow can help you.

Hi,

I have seen that post but it is nearly three years old. I hoped that something changed by now.

Hi, its a feature of the OS so
its doubtful it will ever be included as something cross platform.
But the SO post has code both for win and linux so u get some for free. :)
