[Qt-interest] Search and launch Application

[Rahulkumar Tibdewal]

Hi All,

I want to launch the particular application on my machine using Qt code.
For example if I am working on MAC OS X and wish to launch iTunes.
Or if I am working on Windows and I wish to launch Windows media player.

However there can be cases that Applications are installed at different locations.
For example in windows applications can be installed at different locations.
In Mac OS X we can install applications in Applications Folder. On Mac applications are usually Bundles so we can change their position and can launch them from anywhere.

So basically If we are provided with the name of application then

1.       Search the application

2.       Launch the application.


Can anyone give me clues on this topics.

Thanks
Rahul
