[Qt-interest] About QProcess :How to read stdoutput realtime?

[chandrasekar wagmare]

no not to flush your Qt code .. check the output of  the external program u
try to run from QProcess ... ex: if u are trying to run application "a.out"
..
 in "a.out"  there may be any problem with stdout ...

are u using linux .. if so
run the application with this command
      *a.out | less*

and check if it is printing the output in regular interval ...
