[moved]calling c application in Qt

[prabhuraj]

Hi,
I have a 'c' application which is working fine and I want to call this application in Qt. Is it a possible to do so? Please give any links or any idea.

Thanks

This issue isn't coincidentally linked to "this":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/forums/viewthread/9670/ issue, isnt' it?

There are three possibilities:

• execute your application written in C using QProcess
• create a library out of your C code and link it to your C++ application (extern "C" needed)
• copy and paste the C code into your C++ application

@prabhuraj: If this post is only a further detail of your other post as suggested by Lukas, please notify me so I merge the two threads. Else we leave thie post independent.

Thanks

Whatever it is about, it is not about mobile and embedded. Moving.
