Embed an external application to the widget

[wysota]

QWidget::winId()

Yeah, but I mean the wid from the external application, not my own widget.

Just run xterm with "-into X" where X is the winId returned by the window you wish to embed xterm into.

I tried exactly this, but xterm opens in a separate window.

edit:
Here's some code:

Shell::Shell(QWidget *parent)
: QDockWidget(parent)
{
setObjectName("Shell");
setWindowTitle("Shell");

QWidget *widget=new QWidget(this);
setWidget(widget);

process=new QProcess(this);
process->start("xterm -into "+QString((int)widget->winId()));
widget->show();
}

edit2:
I made a screenshot for you, so you can understand what I am trying to achieve:

[wysota]

It fails because your QString "cast" fails. Look that there is no QString constructor taking a sole int as a parameter.

Oh hehe, sorry fur bugging you. Anyways, isn't there a solution to implement any foreign window?

[wysota]

As far as I know, there is no such solution.
