download and store/show image

[peter_hr892h]

Hi,

(I am a Newbie with Qt so maybe the is not a big deal, but I did not found a proper answer yet ...) I am looking for a little hint for downloading an image from the web. I simply want to download and simultaneously show the image on the screen, so best would be to get the image from the web into the memory, so for me to save and show it immediately. I did not get the http network example[1] running (error: invalid use of undefined type `struct QHttp'), so I hope somebody can help me.


Sorry if there is already a thread about this, I did not found anything with the keywords I used.

Then may be our Newbie section would be best?

Use QT += network in your pro file.

Wow, ok. Thanks, that was quick. The program is doing what I need, so I guess there won't be any problems to get the bits I need of the code. Thanks Lykurg!
