Qt Application to do Linux Command
-
Bismillhirrahmanirrahim,
I use QtCreator on Ubuntu. I wanna make an application that replace some Linux command. In example, if I click a button, it is same with bash command: cp /home/master/Downloads/app.exe /home. How to do that? At least, is there an example (or two) in this case? Or, is there suitable tutorial for this? This is my deep curiosity since I know Java and Qt few years ago, but I still newbie.
Please tell me if I do repost and thank you so much.

You can run other programs (including bash commands) using "QProcess":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qprocess.html. In this specific case, you can also use "QFile":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qfile.html#copy-2 to copy the files.

Wow, amazing. So quick you answer my question! Thank you for this big clues. I got two swords: QProcess and QFile. But it is surely I want to use bash command only, I want to make my own GUI for CLI application.
Is there any further tutorial or example programs? In this case, surely. Thank you.

The documentation is pretty well written. I'm not that fluent in Qt tutorials, I mostly learn myself ;) But you can search or wait for some other bloke to reply.
In any case, feel free to use my "QEasyShell":https://github.com/sierdzio/qeasyshell as reference or backend. It's probably too complex for a newcomer, though.

Um, thank you so much. Even you created an application in this case. But I am completely new comer, in programming, more and more new in Qt. Thank you for your answers.
