[webkit-qt] How to register an application as a specific urlschema handler in QtWebKit

[colin121]

Hi,
Benjamin, thank you for your tips.  I tested following code, and it worked very well.

bool WebPage::acceptNavigationRequest(QWebFrame *frame, const QNetworkRequest &request,
                                      NavigationType type)
{
...

    QString scheme = request.url().scheme();
    if (scheme == QLatin1String("mailto")
        || scheme == QLatin1String("ftp")) {
        BrowserApplication::instance()->askDesktopToOpenUrl(request.url());
        return false;
    }
    else if (scheme == QLatin1String("abc")) {
        QString abcCommand = QLatin1String("abc");
        QStringList abcParameters(request.url().toString());
        QProcess abcProcess;
        abcProcess.startDetached(abcCommand, abcParameters);
        return false;
    }

...
}

In Arora, have a look at
webpage.cpp->WebPage::acceptNavigationRequest(). You can also use
handleUnsupportedontent().
To open an url with the default application register on the platform,
you can use QDesktopServices::openUrl().
cheers,
Benjamin
