Hi all,
I'm copying this to devel, because it fits in a discussion a week or two
ago.

qtservice_win.cpp around line 830 at your reference [1] installs its own
nativeEventFilter - probably displacing yours.
I suspect you'll need to merge the Qt filter into yours, and get rid of
that install.
That is impossible for commercial projects because the solutions are
LGPL only. You can't copy LGPL code into your own code base unless you
are using GPL or LGPL yourself.
And that's why I copied this message to devel, because there was a
discussion on whether to add solutions to Qt Core or not. And one of the
arguments against is that people can just use the solutions as they are.
This is one case, where apparently that's not (at least currently) possible.
I can come up with a couple of workarounds for this, sure. But these are
all brittle and may not work if the solutions code is changed.

*Subject:* [Interest] Native event filter in QtService
I’m trying to write a small (windows only) service based on QtService
[1] listening for some USB device events. For this, I created a
NativeDeviceEventFilterclass based on QAbstractNativeEventFilter. It
works perfectly when used in a QCoreApplication.
Now, when installing this event filter in my UpdaterServiceclass, it
isn’t being called.
I tried each of:
application()->installNativeEventFilter(deviceEvent_);
QCoreApplication::instance()->installNativeEventFilter(deviceEvent_);
QAbstractEventDispatcher::instance()->installNativeEventFilter(deviceEvent_);
both in the service’s constructor and start()method, as well as using a
local instance of NativeDeviceEventFilter,
but none of these worked. The event just isn’t registered at all.
Has anyone ever done something like this? Or is there another way to
receive native messages (MSG structs) in a QtService?
