How to get the hostname using Qt?

How to get the host name of my desktop PC?

Like this, to get system information for Symbian OS:

Solution

  • You are probably look for this:

    [static] QString QHostInfo::​localHostName()

    Returns the host name of this machine.

    main.cpp

    #include <QHostInfo>
#include <QDebug>

int main()
{
    qDebug() << QHostInfo::localHostName();
    return 0;
}

    main.pro

    TEMPLATE = app
TARGET = main
QT = core network
SOURCES += main.cpp

    Build and Run

    qmake && make && ./main

    Output

    "myhostname"
