Unigine Integration into Qt Application

This article describes the sample located in the <UnigineSDK>/source/samples/App/common/ folder. The sample demonstrates how to:

• Create a Qt Widget and embed Unigine into it
  Notice

  Qt version 4.8.x is supported.
• Initialize DirectX 9 (see the <UnigineSDK>/source/samples/App/D3D9AppQt/ folder)
• Initialize DirectX 11 (see the <UnigineSDK>/source/samples/App/D3D11AppQt/ folder)
  Notice

  The D3D9AppQt and D3D11AppQt samples can be run on Windows only.
• Initialize OpenGL (see the <UnigineSDK>/source/samples/App/GLAppQt/ folder)
  Notice

  The GLAppQt sample can be run on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.

In this sample, the Qt application controls the main loop: the engine update(), render() and swap() functions are called when a a request to repaint all or part of a Qt widget has been received (see the AppQt::paintEvent() function defined in the <UnigineSDK>/source/samples/App/common/AppQt.cpp file).

To run the sample, you should perform the following:

1. Prepare the development environment (according to the operating system used).
2. Go to the required folder: D3D9AppQt, D3D11AppQt or GLAppQt.
3. Run the main.py script from this folder.
