The +TQApplication class controls all the event delivery and display +management for all other TQt objects and widgets. We need to use the +TQMotif class from the <em>TQt <a href="motif-extension.html#Motif">Motif</a> Extension</em> to allow TQApplication +and the <tt>XtAppContext</tt> to coexist. +<p> The TQApplication object must be created in the <tt>main()</tt> function. +We will need to modify <tt>todo.c</tt> to compile with a C++ compiler, so we +rename <tt>todo.c</tt> to <tt>todo.cpp</tt>. +<p> Next, we add the appropriate includes for the TQMotif and TQApplication +classes. +<p> + +<pre></pre> +<p> Next, we create the TQMotif and TQApplication objects. We create TQMotif +with a foreign <tt>XtAppContext</tt>, and we create TQApplication with a +foreign <tt>Display</tt>. +<p> <pre></pre> +<p> The next change is not yet necessary, but it is included to show that +the <em>TQt Motif Extension</em> provides a complete integration. +Normally, a Motif based program would use the <tt>XtAppMainLoop()</tt> +function to run the application's event loop. This is still possible, +but since we are migrating to the TQt toolkit, we prefer to use the +<a href="qapplication.html#exec">TQApplication::exec</a>() function for running the event loop. +<p> <pre></pre> +<p> Since we renamed <tt>todo.c</tt> to <tt>todo.cpp</tt>, we must change the +project file and rerun <em>qmake</em> to regenerate our <tt>Makefile</tt>. When we +build our project, there are compile and link errors: we will fix +these in the following section. +<p> <h2> Migrating to C++ +</h2> +<a name="2"></a><p> We need to convert the code in this file to proper C++ code. +Fortunately, the changes are not too large. Most files included from +existing C projects are not C++ compatible, so we make them compatible +by wrapping them in an <tt>extern "C"</tt> block. +<p> + +<p> <pre></pre> +<p> Global C functions that are forward declared must also be wrapped into +an <tt>extern "C"</tt> block. +<p> <pre></pre> +<p> The <tt>manageCB()</tt> function needs to be converted to proper C++. +<p> <pre></pre> +<p> And we need to fix two invalid casts. One is in the <tt>Save()</tt> function. +<p> <pre></pre> +<p> The other invalid cast is in the <tt>Open()</tt> function. +<p> <pre></pre> +<p> After these changes, the project compiles and links, and the +application runs and operates correctly. +<p> [ <a href="motif-walkthrough.html">Home</a> ] +[ <a href="motif-walkthrough-2.html">Next: Preparing to Migrate the User Interface</a> ] +<p> +<!-- eof --> +<p><address><hr><div align=center> +<table width=100% cellspacing=0 border=0><tr> +<td>Copyright © 2007 +<a href="troll.html">Trolltech</a><td align=center><a href="trademarks.html">Trademarks</a> +<td align=right><div align=right>TQt 3.3.8</div> +</table></div></address></body> +</html> |
