    Default Send QEvents over network?

    Hello,

    My job is it to extend a qt standalone application to something vnc-like client/server application.
    It is planned to build-up a network connection between 2 apps for remote support.
    Now i wonder if there is an easy way to send QEvents occured in one application over the network so that this events can be executed by the remote application...

    I am thankful for any suggestions.

    Winni

    Not directly. In theory it is possible - you'd need to serialize events, pass them over network and then post them again on the other side (I think there even is a commercial solution for that, I think I've seen it last year in Munich). But why reinvent the wheel if Xserver or a bunch of other protocols already do that?

    Take a look at GLAN.
