QMessageBox with link inside, unable to click

linux, qmessagebox, qt4.7, ubuntu

Solution

It is working under mine Qt 4.7.4, albeit I had to modify your `HTML`. Minimal example:

#include <QApplication>
#include <QMessageBox>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication app(argc, argv);

    QMessageBox msgBox;
    msgBox.setTextFormat(Qt::RichText);   //this is what makes the links clickable
    msgBox.setText("<a href='http://google.com/'>Google</a>");
    msgBox.setStandardButtons(QMessageBox::Ok);
    msgBox.exec();
    return app.exec();
}

If I use this one, the browser tab is getting opened, and following message ends up in my console:

Created new window in existing browser session.

If I use your `msgBox.setText` I get error:

gvfs-open: file:///tmp/b/google.com: error opening location: Error stating file '/tmp/b/google.com': No such file or directory
