[Qt-interest] How to create a KeyEvent when I click the mouse?

[Nathan Carter]

Dear Kermit,

Here's a Qt example of how to create an event and send it through the  
event loop.

http://qt.gitorious.org/qt-labs/graphics-dojo/blobs/master/htmleditor/htmleditor.cpp#line178

That's a mouse event, not a key event, but it's the general idea.   
I've imitated the above code in one of my own apps.  Of course, you'll  
also want to know about the constructors for QKeyEvent, and they're  
documented in the usual place.

http://doc.qtsoftware.com/4.5/qkeyevent.html#QKeyEvent

Let us know if it doesn't work.

Nathan
