Hi,
I need a text logger in my C++ application, QTextEdit used to have this feature until Qt 3.3 but unfortunately it has been removed. Is there an alternative that I could use?
Tanks for your help!

A:
Two options:
- You could simply use
QTextEdit::setReadOnly(true), the old Qt::LogText flag basically just put the QTextEdit in plain-text read-only mode. - Or use Q3TextEdit, the Qt4 compatibility class for the old Qt3 QTextEdit.

Thanks a lot, I did not know Q3TextEdit existed, I will use it.

@ user363778 - Instead of using Q3TextEdit, it's better if you use QTextEdit in the above way. From Qt documentation - **"We strongly advise against using it (Q3TextEdit) in new code."**

A:
It seems to me that QPlainTextEdit is what you are looking for.
It is optimized for dealing with plain text data and can be can put it in read only.
