What's the difference between QMainWindow, QWidget and QDialog?
回答1:
A QWidget is the base class for all drawable classes in Qt. Any QWidget-based class can be shown as a window by showing it when it has no parent.
A QDialog is based on QWidget, but designed to be shown as a window. It will always appear in a window, and has functions to make it work well with common buttons on dialogs (accept, reject, etc.).
QMainWindow is designed around common needs for a main window to have. It has predefined places for a menu bar, a status bar, a toolbar, and other widgets. It does not have any built-in allowances for buttons like QDialog does.

QWidget :is a base class for all other GUI elements in QtWidgets module. It can constitute a window by itself, or be part of a QLayout, or just a member of parent-child hierarchy.
QDialog :is usually used to - surprise! - display a temporary dialog when user input is required.
QMainWindow :is a convenience class that can be used as the main window of your application. It has some nice features built-in: a status bar, tool bars and a menu bar
