Opening files from a pinned Qt Application

[anda_skoa]

I really am unable to obtain the filename as an argument. If I may explain

qDebug()<<QApplication::arguments().size();
    const QString toPass = argc > 1 ? QString(argv[1]) : QString();
    qDebug()<<toPass;

qDebug()<<QApplication::arguments().size();
    const QString toPass = argc > 1 ? QString(argv[1]) : QString();
    qDebug()<<toPass;

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

The above only gives 1 and an Empty String in the qDebug statements

How did you call the application?
Did you pass an argument?

What I am trying to achieve is to be able to open the pinned files from the task bar of the pinned Qt Application over there and display their contents

We've already covered that.

I do not wish to use QDesktopServices and open the files separately, rather use the file within the Qt application.

QDesktopServices is for delegating file opening to other applications, so not relevant here.

Also, when using the pinned application, I do not see any debug lines getting printed in the Qt console, where can I look for the same?

Your operating system might have a logging facility and Qt might have been built with support for that and log to this factility.
If you are unsure, maybe log to a file.

Cheers,
