    Hello,

    So I create an OpenGL-based QWindow that is opened from within a QMainWindow. Now for my project I need to get the HWND handle for MS Windows for the QWindow I have created.

    I tried the following "from this post":http://qt-project.org/forums/viewthread/497 like so:

    @(HWND)(CurrentOpenGLWindow->winId()@

    Where "CurrentOpenGLWindow" is a class I inherit from QWindow but it seems like what is returned is unusable and the library I am using it in crashes because of it:

    !http://s22.postimg.org/ho79nx1v5/QTWindow_Handle.png(Window Handle)!

    Is it because the QWindow has to be shown first?

    Thank you.
