[Qt-interest] Quit vs. Close window

[Tiago Correia]

Hi,

Maybe you should create the QMainWindow without the flag WA_DeleteOnClose.
In this case the application doesn't finish when you close the window, but
still the event gets called by you close the window.
But do you have multiple windows on your applications?
