Hi David!
Thanks for the input! In my case, it was only about how to get a pointer to
a menu defined via XML. What Alexander wrote does this very job:
auto *someMenu = qobject_cast<QMenu *>(
guiFactory()->container("menuId", this));
(for the XML you wrote, calling this with "foo", would return a pointer to
the menu defined via '<Menu name="foo">'.

Hi list :-)
I have a problem with a KXmlGuiWindow and I honestly can't find respective
docs or howtos/tutorials. I hope someone here can help me ...
I faced the same problem... :(
It's a allegedly basic task: How can I access a submenu (or better: a
submenu's QAction) for a menu defined in a ...ui.rc file?
If I define the submenu like so:
<MenuBar>
<Menu name="foo" > ...
I probably don’t understand properly what you need. But if you
want to modify
the action which contains the menu "bar", you could use KActionMenu.
Change the ui.rc to:
<MenuBar>
<Menu name="foo" >
<Action name="bar"/>
</Menu>
</MenuBar>
then create a KActionMenu called "bar" in your
KActionCollection, set its icon
etc., and populate its menu.
Of course this moves UI definition from ui.rc to C++ code, but
it looks like
you want to modify the menu at runtime.
