I am new to Qt application development, I would appreciate your help. This is a republish redirect std :: cout to QTextEdit

I am trying to redirect std::coutto QTextEditand I saw and tried to check the example given in the following link.

Link Link 1: http://lists.trolltech.com/qt-interest/2005-06/thread00166-0.html

Using Qt Creator 2.4.1 to test an example from Link 1.
