QProcess state is running even when the program didnt start properly

[dv_]

No, it is not a crash. It just exits with a "cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" error. As said, it requires some shared libraries. I want to be able to inform the user that the executable didn't start properly, and give hints what could be wrong (for example, shared libraries may be missing).

Suggestion:
Use error() or readAllStandardError() or readyReadStandardError ()

See what it says after you tried to run the process.
