Get Qt to use the native Windows copy file widget

Question

Excusing the actual folders used as an example, I want to achieve the following two widgets in Qt (the backend is similar to files, but not exactly filesystem files): folder-replace-dialog and copy-file-dialog

I know Qt can do the native save-file widget (using QFileDialog static methods), but can it do the folder replace/file copy dialogs as well? Any suggestions?

You might have to call the Windows SHFileOperation directly for this. It should be possible whether your using gcc or the MS C++ compiler. You'll need to fill in the SHFILEOPSTRUCT but that shouldn't pose too much of a problem.
