Описание тега qmessagebox

The simplest QMessageBox to alert a user will look like this:

QMessageBox myBox;
myBox.setText("Hello, World!");
myBox.exec();

This will pop up a small modal window (which will block the rest of the interface until dismissed) with the text, and a standard "ok" button.

Basically the QMessageBox provides text for informing the user, informative text for a more detailed explanation, and an optional detailed text for even more additional info, should the user request it. The message box can also have standard buttons.

The official documentation can be found here for Qt 4.8 and here for Qt 5.
