Dear All,
I am using Qt 4.3.x
Recently while looking at the Qt Assistant, I find out one thing, that Qt doesnt have a class/plugin, to support "fax"ing programmatically.
how to achieve this in Qt?? I mean "faxing".... any clues?
thanks

Why should it have a class for faxing? Just use platform dependent solutions.
If that is the case, I would have started writing my application using proprietary IDE for the corresponding platform,
Like MFC with VC++ on Windows....
and
Cocoa or Carbon on Macinthosh
and
GTK + Glade on Linux and so on
Why would I choose to use Qt then???
MFC is not an IDE but a framework, like Qt, nor are Cocoa or GTK+, they are APIs or toolkits.
Why did you then? To create a faxing application? I assure you neither of the APIs mentioned by you implement faxing, so surely choosing Qt over those other mentioned APIs wasn't argumented by wanting a faxing class. Just link your Qt based application against chosen faxing library and use it in your program. You'll have to use platform dependent solutions, because there is no platform undependent solution for faxing.Why would I choose to use Qt then???
You can start here: http://www.hylafax.org and also search for "libfax".
<< MFC is not an IDE but a framework, like Qt, nor are Cocoa or GTK+, they are APIs or toolkits.>>
true. You are right. I dont want to deviate from our topic here, still you are asking i would like to justify my answer,
I said, MFC with VC++ (combo, not individually)
also, GTK + GLade, i mean use gtk with glade.

Yes, thanks, This is what i am interested in knowing.
[QUOTE=dyams;47656]There is no such thing as VC++ (it's just a way to sell one product, VS, under four or five names, the only "C++" thing in there is the compiler - MSVC). MFC is a C++ framework over WinAPI (which is itself C). The IDE is called Visual Studio, so you probably meant that. By the way - you can use Qt with Visual Studio as well (and MFC without VS of course).I said, MFC with VC++ (combo, not individually)
But that's way offtopic, sorry for that.
