Basic QMainWindow doesn't show menubar

Hi Guys

I've just started with QT and have created a QMainWindow in QT Designer. I've added several menuItems with actions to the menubar.
I then create a subclass (MainWindow) inheriting from Ui::MainWindow and QMainWindow.
Then in main, I create MainWindow and show it.

Compiles fine and runs but only shows the mainWindow without the menubar.

Am running Leopard on a Mac.

What might I be doing wrong?

I had this problem I'm also a beginner, adding the snippet of code shown below on the constructor in the mainwindow.cpp file solved it for me.

Code:

---

MainWindowImpl::MainWindowImpl( QWidget * parent, Qt::WFlags f) 
	: QMainWindow(parent, f)
{
	 setupUi(this); // required so menus appear only window w/o it

On Macs the menu bar is on top of the screen and not in the window.

@Master

Of course it is.

Been reading too many textbooks that are based on Windows - I forgot what my own operating system looks like. :)

Thanks heaps

Originally I forgot to put in setupUi(this) and the program ran but nothing showed up including the form.
When I put it in, everything worked fine - I just didn't realise it - thanks again Master of Zen.
