How to use QProcess to open an URL

[sam_er83]

Hi ,
please suggest the way to use QProcess to open an URL (internet browser).

Thanks,
Sam

best way:

QDesktopServices::openUrl(QUrl(tr("http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=40")));

QDesktopServices::openUrl(QUrl(tr("http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=40")));

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

bad way:

#ifdef Q_WS_WIN
    result = int(ShellExecuteW(HWND_TOP,
            0,
            rUrl.ucs2(),
            0,
	    0,
	    SW_SHOWNORMAL)) > 32;
#else

#ifdef Q_WS_WIN
    result = int(ShellExecuteW(HWND_TOP,
            0,
            rUrl.ucs2(),
            0,
	    0,
	    SW_SHOWNORMAL)) > 32;
#else

// Try a range of browsers available on UNIX, until we (hopefully)
    // find one that works.  Start with the most popular first.
 
    QProcess process;
    bool process_started = false;
    process.setArguments(QStringList() << "netscape" << rUrl);
 
    process_started = process.start();
 
    if (!process_started)
    {
        process.setArguments(QStringList() << "mozilla" << rUrl);
 
        process_started = process.start();
    }
    if (!process_started)
    {
