Running a bash script from resource (qrc) file

[spark82]

I suppose you could start bash in interactive mode and dump the script on its standard input, but this would be ugly, error-prone, and you would have to use the native API since QProcess only allows you to redirect the standard input to a file, not an arbitrary QIODevice.

Perhaps ugly, but that seams to work:

QProcess *proc = new QProcess;
QString name = "/bin/bash";
QStringList arg;
arg << "-c" ;
 
QFile file(":/test.sh");
if (!file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text))
        return 42; 
 
arg << file.readAll();
proc->start(name, arg);

QProcess *proc = new QProcess;
QString name = "/bin/bash";
QStringList arg;
arg << "-c" ;

QFile file(":/test.sh");
if (!file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text))
        return 42; 

arg << file.readAll();
proc->start(name, arg);
