how can i use Glut in Qt windowing system?

Message 1 in thread

hi
how can i use Glut in Qt windowing system?
please pay attention that i want to use Glut functions ,not Glwidget. so 
i can use Glut common functions but for example instead of using 
glCreatWindow i call Qt widgets as a container.
up to now i use MFC classes such as WinMain() to handle Glut programs. 
now i want to swap WinMain() with one of the widgets from Qt. / is it 
possible?/
thanks for your helps

Your previous message came through.

Note, if your posting via the mail list, you should of seen the email
posted.  If you see it, so did we.

If your posting via the newsgroup, it may take a bit longer, but you
should see it come through.


As to your post... I think GLUT and Qt GL code will conflict, as they
both purport to do the same thing, wrap OpenGL code in a platform
independent manner.

That said, if you go an look at the source code to Qt GL wrapper, you
can see its not overly difficult to get the native window handle and use
it to draw onto using non QT code... The active X code works that way..

People have also embedded TK widgets inside QT code as well.

It sound like you got a nice project ahead of you.

multiple document interface. is it possible? i insist to use Qt but i

Yes you can do it...

But to my knowledge there is nothing out there now doing it... You will
have to create the framework for this interface yourself.

Well, at least someone else has had to pass that way before:

So, do you want to embed a "native" GLUT window in a Qt user interface
on Windows?

It may be possible to do something similar to the approach you could try
if you were using X; i.e. use QX11EmbedContainer as a container for the
GLUT window. Someone more familiar with the mechanisms for this on
Windows will have to advise you.
