QWidget-derived Application Plugins

[jpn]

Instead of making the plugin itself a QWidget, make it allocate and return a QWidget when requested, more or less like this:

class MyPluginInterface
{
   ...
   QWidget* createWidget(QWidget* parent) = 0;
   ...
};

class MyPluginInterface
{
   ...
   QWidget* createWidget(QWidget* parent) = 0;
   ...
};

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode

With some retooling, it worked!

Thank you.

I'd discovered a similar (though more convoluted) way just before reading your post, but your suggestion is, IMO, better than mine...

Follow-on question:

These modules are an aggregation of widgets and code, connected through module-private signals and slots. Now that the UI is drawn on a parent object, how I do re-connect these private signals and slots so that the interface is processed properly? I might have thought they would be reconnected as they're part of the same block of code, but they don't seem to be.. Thoughts?

Thanks!
