Konqueror/ Embedded x86

Hi people,
I am Student and new to the KDE developement..
I have intel x86 system with linux Kernel 2.6 and the basic tool chain installed.
My purpose of installing the Konqueror is I will call the Konqueror from a .c file and will pass a html file to show.

To do this i think i need QT and Konqueror / Embedded installed.

There are so many packages.. for QT and Konqueror/ embedded..

RE: Konqueror/ Embedded x86

I fail to see why the embedded Konqueror. In case of the normal Konqueror, you need to have Qt, kdelibs and kdebase installed. Since this is all C++, it's a bit difficult to steer Konqueror directly from your C application.

What you could do is to load the page by making a DCOP call, as a command line call:

dcop konqueror-<PID> konqueror-mainwindow#1 openURL "http://www.kde.org"

Hi bram85
Thank you for your help.
I want this to be embedded because my linux final out put will be ported to ARM or some thing like that.

I am a student and trying to explore this.
Actually I dont have any url with me to show.
I am doing some computation and storing the out put into a buffer.
( i can do this in C or C++) no probs..
then i have to pass the buffer to Konqueror to show the page.
My out poot is going to be a very basic html page..

I should call that from C or C++ code..

please suggest me how should I move ahead.


Regards
Msihradk

I think you'd better ask on the Konqueror embedded mailing list: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/konq-e
