QT Runtime OS Version

[sgg245]

I want to know an API using which I can know the QT Runtime OS Type.

Using qVersion() in QtGlobal I can know the OS Version.

Similary I want to know an API for OS Type like I am using Ubuntu Linux then it should return similar sort of string...

Thanks in advance...

You want the distribution name? Qt won't help you with that, you have to read system configuration files or parse result of uname.

Hi, you can also check for a file in /etc/. It is normaly called something like SuSE-release, fedora-release and so on. It contains the version of the distribution.

If I'm not mistaken, qVersion() won't supply you with OS version information.
