Converting From Hexadecimal to QString

BryanC

Hi Guys,
This is my first post here and I'm hoping you can help me out. I've a project in which I have to implement unions so I'm doing so with a packed representation and component-wise representation of a hexadecimal color. The code below will clear things up but basically I'm stuck on how to convert from the hexadecimal to a QString so that I can use it in the stylesheet. If you have any ideas I'd really appreciate your help cause I've been unable to find an answer for the past few hours.

//union
typedef union color4bTag
    {
    unsigned int      c;    // packed representation
    struct argbTag          // component-wise representation
        {
        unsigned char b;    // (reversed for intel storage order)

        unsigned char g;
        unsigned char r;
        unsigned char a;
        } argb;
    } COLOR4B;

//setting color.c
    color4bTag color;
    color.c = 0x000000FF;

//stylesheet
    QString styleSheet(
      "QMainWindow{background-color: %1;}
    );

//seting background color
QString varBGColour(/*What do I put here to get #000000FF*/);

setStyleSheet(styleSheet.arg(varBGColour));
