How to put QWindow into QWidget's layout (Qt5)

Question

I want to insert QQuickView to my old qt4 application in some widget layout. How to mix QWidget and QWindow in a single application?

Are there any examples?

Answer 1

This has been fixed in Qt 5.1. Citing [1]

To remedy this problem, Qt 5.1 introduces the function QWidget::createWindowContainer() . A function that creates a QWidget wrapper for an existing QWindow, allowing it to live inside a QWidget-based application. Using QQuickView or QOpenGLContext together with widgets is now possible.
