<div class="descr">
<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The QX11EmbedWidget class provides an XEmbed client widget.</p>
<p>XEmbed is an X11 protocol that supports the embedding of a widget from one application into another application.</p>
<p>An XEmbed <i>client widget</i> is a window that is embedded into a <i>container</i>. A container is the graphical location that embeds (or <i>swallows</i>) an external application.</p>
<p>QX11EmbedWidget is a widget used for writing XEmbed applets or plugins. When it has been embedded and the container receives tab focus, focus is passed on to the widget. When the widget reaches the end of its focus chain, focus is passed back to the container. Window activation, accelerator support, modality and drag and drop (XDND) are also handled.</p>
<p>The widget and container can both initiate the embedding. If the widget is the initiator, the X11 window ID of the container that it wants to embed itself into must be passed to <a href="qx11embedwidget.html#embedInto">embedInto</a>().</p>
<p>If the container initiates the embedding, the window ID of the embedded widget must be known. The container calls embed(), passing the window ID.</p>
<p>This example shows an application that embeds a QX11EmbedWidget subclass into the window whose ID is passed as a command-line argument:</p>
<pre class="cpp"> <span class="type">int</span> main(<span class="type">int</span> argc<span class="operator">,</span> <span class="type">char</span> <span class="operator">*</span>argv<span class="operator">[</span><span class="operator">]</span>)
 {
     <span class="type"><a href="qapplication.html">QApplication</a></span> app(argc<span class="operator">,</span> argv);

     <span class="keyword">if</span> (app<span class="operator">.</span>arguments()<span class="operator">.</span>count() <span class="operator">!</span><span class="operator">=</span> <span class="number">2</span>) {
         <a href="qtglobal.html#qFatal">qFatal</a>(<span class="string">&quot;Error - expected window id as argument&quot;</span>);
         <span class="keyword">return</span> <span class="number">1</span>;
     }

     <span class="type"><a href="qstring.html">QString</a></span> windowId(app<span class="operator">.</span>arguments()<span class="operator">[</span><span class="number">1</span><span class="operator">]</span>);
     EmbedWidget window;
     window<span class="operator">.</span>embedInto(windowId<span class="operator">.</span>toULong());
     window<span class="operator">.</span>show();

     <span class="keyword">return</span> app<span class="operator">.</span>exec();
 }</pre>
<p>The problem of obtaining the window IDs is often solved by the container invoking the application that provides the widget as a separate process (as a panel invokes a docked applet), passing its window ID to the new process as a command-line argument. The new process can then call <a href="qx11embedwidget.html#embedInto">embedInto</a>() with the container's window ID, as shown in the example code above. Similarly, the new process can report its window ID to the container through IPC, in which case the container can embed the widget.</p>
<p>When the widget has been embedded, it emits the signal <a href="qx11embedwidget.html#embedded">embedded</a>(). If it is closed by the container, the widget emits <a href="qx11embedwidget.html#containerClosed">containerClosed</a>(). If an error occurs when embedding, <a href="qx11embedwidget.html#error">error</a>() is emitted.</p>
<p>There are XEmbed widgets available for KDE and GTK+. The GTK+ equivalent of QX11EmbedWidget is GtkPlug. The corresponding KDE 3 widget is called QXEmbed.</p>

<p>This signal is emitted by the client widget when the container closes the widget. This can happen if the container itself closes, or if the widget is rejected.</p>
<p>The container can reject a widget for any reason, but the most common cause of a rejection is when an attempt is made to embed a widget into a container that already has an embedded widget.</p>
