Title :  Cross-platform approach to create the interactive application
         based on ROOT and Qt GUI libraries
Authors : R.Brun, V.Fine., J.Lauret, F.Rademakers
Abstract : 
This talk will present the approach and advanced implementation of the
Qt-based low level graphical plugin of the ROOT package. In spite of
other existing implementations, this work uniquelly allows to create
applications which can seamlessly use the ROOT GUI classes as well as
the Qt Widgets.

The current code can be built from a single ROOT-base package (available
for download from http://root.bnl.gov ) and can be assembled for both
Unix and Windows OS.

  No alteration of either user code or core ROOT code is required. The
only user action is currently to install the Qt layer packages and
modify the ROOT resource files.  An example application using this
approach will be presented.
