[Qt-interest] Executing code after QApplication::exec() without user intervention

[Guido Seifert]

Don't quite understand the question. But from the description of your
requirement I'd do something like that:

	QApplication app(argc, argv,false);
        <instantiate arbitrary class>
        app.exec();

In your arbitrary classes' constructor you put all the stuff
you want to have done automatically, e.g. open a file from
command-line.

Regards,
Guido
