QWidget::winEvent, QApplication::winEventFilter, and qFindChild<QWidget*>(this)

carljoerger

Hello,
We have a large MFC application that we would like to port to Qt 5. I'm starting through the "MFC to Qt Migration - Walkthrough". The first step is to build qtdll, which seems to be written using Qt 4.

Is
QWidget::nativeEvent("windows_generic_MSG", msg, result);
equivalent to
QWidget::winEvent(msg, result);
How do I convert
return QApplication::winEventFilter(msg, result);
How do I convert
const QWidget child = qFindChild<QWidget>(this);

Thank you,
Carl

Is there another MFC to Qt guide?

Did you took a look at the bug report and the QtWinMigrate solution ?

I'd like to. When I click on

https://qt.gitorious.org/qt-solutions

I get

This site can’t be reached

qt.gitorious.org’s server DNS address could not be found.
DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN

Any ideas?

The repositories have been moved to code.qt.io

The one you are looking for is at https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt-solutions/qt-solutions.git/

I'm doing a SVN checkout at
https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt-solutions/qt-solutions.git/tree/
and I'm getting
Unable to connect to a repository at URL
What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Ok - I figured it out - I used "Git GUI Here"
