Running application with user privillegions.

@nicholas_ru
Gave you the 3 ways to implement it above in https://forum.qt.io/post/837390. Don't know what other ways you want or need, don't know why you don't pursue these. You seem to ask the question but not prepared to follow the suggestions. Up to you.

@nicholas_ru Since you used GParted as an example, use the same technique they use.

Nice to know :)

*.in.in file?!
So a file template for a file template for an actual file? :D

There's never enough indirection... :-D

I think he wants to run a process with administrative privileges by showing a UAC (User Account Control) dialog. This is what, for example, balenaEtcher does when it needs to burn a drive. Is this correct?

JonB

@kaixoo If you read the OP is under Linux, so there is no such thing as "UAC".

Linus Torvalds hate C++ because it dificult and not t easy.Not UAC, read up, Linux.It so for me, i liked, Unixpled

J.Hilk

Torvalds allowed Rust into the kernel (2022) but not C++.

Grandpa is doing his own thing and I stopped questioning stuff.

Don't know what you're saying, but the ability to set or change user privilege has nothing to do with C++ and really little to do with programming.

nicholas_ru

It's talk about them, that code must be easy, and user permissions change must be flug also easy.

Pl45m4

@nicholas_ru

If changing user permissions were that easy, it would defeat its purpose.

nicholas_ru

It must easy for developers and users.

nicholas_ru

@J.Hilk grandfather create for you Linux and GIT,you use it

SGaist

Just in case: KDE has Polkit-Qt

nicholas_ru

I use LXDE.This is GNOME.Gvfs.I am not knowladge how understand.Paradox

SGaist

I don't get your point. Can you explain this more clearly ?
AFAIK, there's nothing LXDE specific. This project is essentially a wrapper around polkit which handles the "sudoing" part.

nicholas_ru

very good idea, but very dificult. I am found in debian based package.Thank.

What do you mean by that ? Debian provides packages for both Qt 5 and Qt 6 ?

nicholas_ru

Yes, of course.
