Displaying SVG in OpenGL without intermediate raster

Question

I have some simple SVG artwork (icon and glyph kind of things) which I want to display in an OpenGL app (developing in C++ on Debian, using Qt).

The obvious solution

Answer 1

Qt can do this.
QSvgRenderer can take an SVG and paint it over a QGLWidget
Its possibly you'll need to fiddle around with the paintEvent() abit if you want to draw anything else on the QGLWidget other than the SVG.
