Hi,
i tried to find out embed widgets in direct fb , but could not succeed.
i know how to do it in X11, does dfb has any difference w.r.t embed widgets.

any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,

What do you mean by embed widgets ? Using the same program you made for X11 but on DirectFB ?

If that's the case (and short version), you have to compile QtEmbedded (Qt compiled with -embedded option) and have the DirectFB gfx plugin also built.

Recompile your application using the newly built qmake and start it with -qws as parameter.

For more information have a look at the "embedded":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qt-embedded-linux.html documentation

Hope it helps

Thank you very much for the reply :)

What i exactly mean is , we have QX11EmbedWidget and QX11EmbedContainer for handling the windowing functionalities. what are the equivalent functions to achieve the same or can i use them on DFB.
first of all i am very much new to X11,DFB environments and Qt as well, and wanted some examples or references .

Thanks for the link provided, i will go through it.

if possible please provide any other links whcih explains well about X11 and DFB stuff with Qt.

please some one reply.

is that really stupid questions i am asking or forum is busy for reply.
i am sorry if it is a stupid question , but i am very much new in Qt and other stuff.

AFAIK, X11 has a DirectFB backend so you can use X11 directly.

You might also want to try "QWSEmbedWidget":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qwsembedwidget.html
