How to list and extract rar files

[Mr Gisa]

I was wondering, how can I list the files and extract rar files using Qt?

@Mr-Gisa See https://forum.qt.io/topic/72570/best-way-to-pack-and-unpack-rar-archives-using-qt/2

Where? I really don't see anything. haha. They mention KArchive but it doesn't handle rar files.

Sorry, I completely forgot that I asked that already, it's my mind full of things. :(

@Mr-Gisa
Well that can happen to anyone. Besides, its better to have head full of things - than a zombie like existence.

Now I only need to know how to compile and use that thing (completely lost) haha

@Mr-Gisa
If you don't want to go down the route of compiling/integrating that code, could your manage by just processing an external RAR command for your purposes?
