Hi,

Seems this turned into a nice bike shed discussion quickly, so let me use the chance to present my preferred Qt main(). I am totally convinced that this one should rule the Qt world:

    class BlueBikeShedApplication : public QApplication
    {
        Q_OBJECT

    public:
        using QApplication::QApplication;

        int run()
        {
            if (!parseCommandLine())
                return EXIT_FAILURE;
            if (!initializeColorBucket())
                return EXIT_FAILURE;

            setupBrush();

            return exec();
        }
    };

    int main(int argc, char *argv[])
    {
        return BlueBikeShedApplication{argc, argv}.run();
    }

The big advantage I see in this approach is, that you work within a proper QObject context with fully setup QApplication early. Also this main() is sufficiently generic to be hidden in a platform specific macro, or static library.

Thank you for reading,
Mathias
