c++ - Using Qt with DirectX?

Question

What exactly are my options? I have programs I need to write in OpenGL and DirectX, and I'd like to use Qt for OpenGL, and not have to re-implement half my program for the DirectX components of my task.

I've looked on Google and I have found references to people complaining about Direct3D being a dependency of Qt, and people talking about implementing QD3DWidget sub-classing QWidget in a similar fashion to QGLWidget, yet nobody talked about how to implement it or where any examples are.

I need help. I want to know if it is possible? What would I need to do to get it working? Has it been done before?

Answer 1

its pretty straightforward than I thought,

-> Create a QWidget
-> Override paintEngine() method, does nothing, just returns NULL
-> Assign HWND to widget->winId()

    #ifdef USE_QTGUI
        QApplication a(argc, argv);
        CD3DWidget wndw;    wndw.show();    wndw.resize(1280,960);
        hWnd = wndw.winId();
    #else
        hWnd = CreateAppWindow(name,300,300);
    #endif

       //CD3DWidget class contains only the following definitions
    CD3DWidget::CD3DWidget(QWidget * parent):QWidget(parent){      }
    QPaintEngine *CD3DWidget::paintEngine (){          return NULL;        }

Thanks,
