Qt embedded console commands request and reply
-
I'm using Qt embedded on linux.
From the console (serial console) I use the following command to get status on my ppp:/etc/rc.d/S09pppd status
The ppp will reply with "pppd running" or "pppd not running"
I would like to execute this request from my Qt application and read the reply from my Qt application.
How can I do this?

QProcess::execute() is a static method. It does not return any output of the started command/executable. You will have to use the non-static methods in order to ready any data.
@
QProcess p;
p.start("/etc/rc.d/S09pppd status");
p.waitForFinished(); // blocks!
QByteArray output = p.readAllStandardOutput();
