Getting QMenuBar of child widget to showup

[jpn]

For a main window, menu bar gets created on demand when QMainWindow::menuBar() is called. If you want a separate menu inside the dock widget:

QDockWidget* dockWidget = new QDockWidget(mainWindow);
QWidget* wrapper = new QWidget(dockWidget);
QVBoxLayout* layout = new QVBoxLayout(wrapper);
QMenuBar* menuBar = new QMenuBar(wrapper);
QMenu* dockMenu = menuBar->addMenu("Dock menu");
dockMenu->addAction("blaa");
QTextEdit* textEdit = new QTextEdit(wrapper);
layout->setMenuBar(menuBar);
layout->addWidget(textEdit);
dockWidget->setWidget(wrapper);

QDockWidget* dockWidget = new QDockWidget(mainWindow);
QWidget* wrapper = new QWidget(dockWidget);
QVBoxLayout* layout = new QVBoxLayout(wrapper);
QMenuBar* menuBar = new QMenuBar(wrapper);
QMenu* dockMenu = menuBar->addMenu("Dock menu");
dockMenu->addAction("blaa");
QTextEdit* textEdit = new QTextEdit(wrapper);
layout->setMenuBar(menuBar);
layout->addWidget(textEdit);
dockWidget->setWidget(wrapper);
