 Quote: Forgive me to be so bold - but I just cannot believe that in versatile forum like
this there is nobody who can at lest give me some idea how to resolve this.
It seems to be a problem that everybody wants SINGLE system problem
- that seldom works in real life.
As the title suggest - I need to connect Qt generated object / window to Linux "terminal"
(operating system ) native window.
I can highlight ( Using Qt) the text in the native window (!)
but Qt gives me no indication it did that.
PLEASE - NO PASSING THE BUCK TO QT FORUM - THEY HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO PROCEED - IT IS NOT Qt ISSUE IN THEIR ASSESSMENT -HENCE out OF THEIR narrow minded LEAGUE.
ps i WILL REMOVE THIS , AND MY SIMILAR POSTS, IF i DO NOT GET REASONABLE REPLY , JUST TO SAVE SPACE HERE.
Edited / addendum
I am still looking for somebody who is willing to help me instead of just posting text.
If it bothers you that my post is not specifically C/C++ code , please ignore it .
If it bothers you that my post is too complex , please ignore it also.
If it bothers you that my post is poorly written - read how to post / answer questions.
Is short - write something helpful and constructive.
"Terms and conditions apply to your answer."
You're doing it again, and you wonder why nobody, in any forum, is willing to even talk to you, let alone help you.

And as so often suggested, that is a question for a QT forum and has nothing to do with C/C++. Unless you can show some actual code and explain (without all the unnecessary orders) what the problem is, there is very little anyone here can do to help you. So try this template:
---------------------------
In the following code, the instruction at line x throws an out of range exception, even though the calculation appears to be correct. blah blah ...
int value = 5;
do
{
} while (values < 10);
---------------------------
That's all we need, not a load of 'instructions' about how we must answer your questions in a form that you think you deserve. Remember, we are all volunteers here and actually do this because we like to help people. What we do not care for is being given orders, especially by those who somehow think we are their employees.

I am sorry, but whatever the people at QT say, this is purely a QT question. Every single line in that code is using a QT command or object so that is where the answer(s) lie.

Not sure what you mean by that. The started terminal is a separate process, so the only connection between the two is the process id which allows the caller to determine whether the started process is running or not.

I suspect that what's going on is that when you highlight some text in your terminal window, its getting copied to a clipboard in the GUI. Or perhaps its not getting copied and you need to tell the terminal app to copy the text - usually, but not guaranteed to be, CTL-C. Otherwise, you might need to look into the GUI API for accessing contents of the clipboard. Note that many XTerm emulators seem to have 2 independent clipboards. There's one that you get when you merely highlight the text, and which you can then usually paste with middle-button on the mouse. There's also the Cut/Paste (CTL-C/CTL-V) clipboard. The two sometimes seem to be synchronized, but not always. In general, I think you should prefer the Cut/Paste method, as that seems to copy text to the GUI's idea of the clipboard, and is usually what you get back when you Paste. This is all a bit hand-wavy, because it seems like there's no hard and fast rules about what gets copied where during a highlight and/or a Copy/Paste.
Keep Calm and Carry On

When you highlight text in a terminal it can usually then be copied by some keystrokes or menu option. That is fairly standard throughout Windows, MacOS and Linux. You can then paste it into another running application (e.g. the QT process that launched the terminal), but as far as I am aware you still need to do it manually. If you want direct connection between a calling and called process, then the called process needs to be a console type application. You can then connect the stdout of the called process to stdin of the caller, so the caller can read what the called process writes. The QProcess documentation explains how to do it.

Do you need to wrap bluetoothctl in an xterm for some reason, can you not just call QProcess with bluetoothctl as the program to execute?

There's only one person here who gets huffy.
The main problem with your question is that it is far from clear exactly what you are trying to do, or why you are using QT. If you merely want to capture the output of some command, then running it in xterm is not a good choice. But since the reason for xterm was not clear I did not originally question it. However, I did point out that connecting processes via stdin, stdout is something that has been around since the early days of Linux/Windows, and is actually fully supported by QProcess.

Yes, mainly because I still do not really understand what you are trying to achieve. But, hey ho, that seems to be par for the course with your questions.

Greetings Kind Regards Each of the two uses of the type trait is_base_of compiles differently. One w/ error the other w/o. Any idea why the difference? It is documented as requiring a completed type I am not certain as to its meaning but the question remains why the difference? Thank You Kindly
The precise error message wrt the requires expression is:

I am saving a series of floating point numbers in CSV. I heard that under some European locale, the decimal point in floating point is actually a comma, I was wondering if I release this product in a European market, will my library have trouble parsing the floats since my decimal point is a full stop, not a comma.
Does anyone encounter this problem in those locales? How do you handle it?
Thanks in advance.

Any decent CSV library should take care of this by quoting anything containing the field delimiter (in this case, comma).
I just did a simple test with LibreOffice Calc:
* entered 123.45 and 246.80 in the first two cells.
* changed its locale to German
* saved as csv
The result: "123,45","246,80"
