QCloseEvent ce; QApplication::sendEvent(window, &ce); You only want to emit the event, the widget doesn't close in response - the event is (usually) emitted when it wants to close. > It would mean that applications are session management aware No, it means they give a shit about "session management", but they do care about what happens when the user (or anything) tries to close a window. The present code in Qt's SM tells me that this is considered the predominant way to handle data-safety - also because it's the regular incident. Notice again that this data protection mechanism has *nothing* to do with session management in particular, eg. whenever you try to close a kwrite window w/ modified text, it will ask you "err, really? maybe safe the file before?" - and at this point the user can also say "whooops, no - I didn't want to close at all" The present code triggers this mechanism and it might be required to preserve that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1446865 Title: KDE5/Qt5 does not support session restoration To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/kdebase-workspace/+bug/1446865/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
