Detailed Description
A QXEmbed widget serves as an embedder that can manage one single embedded X-window. The QXEmbed widget is a graphical socket that can embed an external X-Window.These so-called client windows can be arbitrary QWidgets.
There are two different ways of using QXEmbed, from the embedder's or from the client's side. When using it from the embedder's side, you already know the window identifier of the window that should be embedded. Simply call embed() with this identifier as parameter.
Embedding from the client's side requires that the client knows the window identifier of the respective embedder widget. Use either embedClientIntoWindow() or the high-level wrapper processClientCmdline().
If a window has been embedded succesfully, embeddedWinId() returns its id.
Reimplement the change handler windowChanged() to catch embedding or the destruction of embedded windows. In the latter case, the embedder also emits a signal embeddedWindowDestroyed() for convenience.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation
|
Constructs a xembed widget. The parent, name and f arguments are passed to the QFrame constructor. |
|
Destructor. Cleans up the focus if necessary. |
Member Function Documentation
|
Embedded applications should call this function to make sure they support the XEMBED protocol. It is called automatically when you use embedClientIntoWindow() or processClientCmdline(). Clients might have to call it manually when you use embed(). |
|
Sets the protocol used for embedding windows. This function must be called before embedding a window. Protocol XEMBED provides maximal functionality (focus, tabs, etc) but requires explicit cooperation from the embedded window. Protocol XPLAIN provides maximal compatibility with embedded applications that do not support the XEMBED protocol. The default is XEMBED. Future work: Create a protocol AUTO that selects the best option. This will be possible with the XEMBED v2 specification. |
|
Returns the protocol used for embedding the current window.
|
|
Embeds the window with the identifier w into this xembed widget. This function is useful if the server knows about the client window that should be embedded. Often it is vice versa: the client knows about its target embedder. In that case, it is not necessary to call embed(). Instead, the client will call the static function embedClientIntoWindow().
|
|
Returns the window identifier of the embedded window, or 0 if no window is embedded yet.
|
|
A function for clients that embed themselves. processClientCmdline(). The widget client will be embedded in the window window. The application has to ensure that window is the handle of the window identifier of an QXEmbed widget. |
|
A utility function for clients that embed theirselves. The widget client will be embedded in the window that is passed as -embed command line argument. The function returns TRUE on sucess or FALSE if no such command line parameter is specified.
|
|
Returns a size sufficient for the embedded window.
Reimplemented from QWidget. |
|
Returns the minimum size specified by the embedded window.
Reimplemented from QWidget. |
|
Specifies that this widget can use additional space, and that it can survive on less than sizeHint().
Reimplemented from QWidget. |
|
This signal is emitted when the embedded window has been destroyed.
|
|
A change handler that indicates that the embedded window has been changed. The window handle can also be retrieved with embeddedWinId().
