56 \title ActiveQt Framework |
|
57 \brief An overview of Qt's ActiveX and COM integration on Windows. |
|
58 |
|
59 \ingroup platform-specific |
|
60 \keyword ActiveQt |
|
61 |
|
62 Qt's ActiveX and COM support allows Qt for Windows developers to: |
|
63 |
|
64 \list 1 |
|
65 \o Access and use ActiveX controls and COM objects provided by any |
|
66 ActiveX server in their Qt applications. |
|
67 \o Make their Qt applications available as COM servers, with |
|
68 any number of Qt objects and widgets as COM objects and ActiveX |
|
69 controls. |
|
70 \endlist |
|
71 |
|
72 The ActiveQt framework consists of two modules: |
|
73 |
|
74 \list |
|
75 \o The \l QAxContainer module is a static |
|
76 library implementing QObject and QWidget subclasses, QAxObject and |
|
77 QAxWidget, that act as containers for COM objects and ActiveX |
|
78 controls. |
|
79 \o The \l QAxServer module is a static library that implements |
|
80 functionality for in-process and executable COM servers. This |
|
81 module provides the QAxAggregated, QAxBindable and QAxFactory |
|
82 classes. |
|
83 \endlist |
|
84 |
|
85 To build the static libraries, change into the \c activeqt directory |
|
86 (usually \c QTDIR/src/activeqt), and run \c qmake and your make |
|
87 tool in both the \c container and the \c control subdirectory. |
|
88 The libraries \c qaxcontainer.lib and \c qaxserver.lib will be linked |
|
89 into \c QTDIR/lib. |
|
90 |
|
91 If you are using a shared configuration of Qt enter the \c plugin |
|
92 subdirectory and run \c qmake and your make tool to build a |
|
93 plugin that integrates the QAxContainer module into \l{Qt |
|
94 Designer}. |
|
95 |
|
96 The ActiveQt modules are part of the \l{Qt Full Framework Edition} and |
|
97 the \l{Open Source Versions of Qt}. |
