\brief An overview of Qt's ActiveX and COM integration on Windows.+ −

\keyword ActiveQt+ −

Qt's ActiveX and COM support allows Qt for Windows developers to:+ −
+ −
\list 1+ −
\o Access and use ActiveX controls and COM objects provided by any + −
ActiveX server in their Qt applications.+ −
\o Make their Qt applications available as COM servers, with+ −
any number of Qt objects and widgets as COM objects and ActiveX + −
controls.+ −
\endlist+ −
+ −
The ActiveQt framework consists of two frameworks:+ −
+ −
\list+ −
\o The \l{Using ActiveX controls and COM objects in Qt}{QAxContainer}+ −
module is a static library implementing QObject and QWidget subclasses,+ −
QAxObject and QAxWidget, that act as containers for COM objects and+ −
ActiveX controls.+ −
\o The \l{Building ActiveX servers and controls with Qt}{QAxServer}+ −
module is a static library that implements+ −
functionality for in-process and executable COM servers. This+ −
module provides the QAxAggregated, QAxBindable and QAxFactory+ −
classes.+ −
\endlist+ −
+ −
A set of \l{Tools for ActiveQt}{tools} is provided to simplify the+ −
developing and building of Qt projects that use ActiveX.+ −
+ −
To build the static libraries, change into the \c activeqt directory + −
(usually \c QTDIR/src/activeqt), and run \c qmake and your make+ −
tool in both the \c container and the \c control subdirectory.+ −
The libraries \c qaxcontainer.lib and \c qaxserver.lib will be linked+ −
into \c QTDIR/lib.+ −
+ −
If you are using a shared configuration of Qt enter the \c plugin+ −
subdirectory and run \c qmake and your make tool to build a+ −
plugin that integrates the QAxContainer module into \l{Qt+ −
Designer}.+ −
+ −
The ActiveQt modules are part of the \l{Qt Full Framework Edition} and+ −
the \l{Open Source Versions of Qt}.+ −
