Hi
I have a plugin that plug into konqueror( iconview and listview). From the 
plugin I want to open an URL I started to call like this:

static_cast<KParts::ReadOnlyPart*>(parent())->openURL( site.url() );

And it worked quite well, the problem was that the location bar wasn't 
updated.

Then I looked through the konqueror sources and found that I could do like 
this:

emit extension->openURLRequest( site.connection().url(), args );

Which works just fine, the problem is that then my plugin has to be aware of 
libkonq and consequently kdebase has to be installed. ( my plugin works in 
both my app and konqy) and I think it should be able to compile without 
kdebase.

My plugin also has a DCOP interface so I can use it to call konqueror, which 
also works fine.

Is there a better, preferable way to open an URL, have I missed something ?
