Hi thanks for your quick reply ,
I got your point it is not easy to know about all the modules architecture.Here I basically want to know how the basic QT application communicates over system(Hardware/OS) and the layer based explanation for an basic Qt application .
Please suggest me either the where can i get all these information.

You should consider Qt as a library. Applications may call Qt methods or OS calls directly.

The meaning of "layer based explanation" is a mystery. Your application communicates however you program it to (or not to) communicate: network sockets, shared memory, files... Where Qt libraries are used as an intermediary they are designed to hide platform dependent methods of doing all of the above.

Please suggest me either the where can i get all these information.

The Qt documentation and, if necessary, the Qt code. Both are freely available.

Afterthought: If by "layer based explanation" you mean "inheritance hierarchy" then that is in the documentation.
