Hi,

I need to make a C++ plasmoid that runs a specified command. What is the correct way of doing it?

I know a lot of KDE applications use the KRun class which is supposed to do that, but to use it I need a parent QWidget, and I don't know that I could set it as in a plasmoid.

Thanks in advance

There is a nice page on techbase about the topic:

Most probably your case would be to use KProcess (at least, from the generic description it would seem that)?

Thanks, KProcess was what I was looking for!

Hello!, I've read the documentation but it doesn't get through my thick skull. Do you guys have an example that I can use?

thxs!

An example to do what?

Sorry, it was another part of my program that wasn't running, so now everything is ok

thxs!
