Is this the right way to set the SSL protocol with QWebPage?

Question

I\'ve been working with SSL in Qt, where I need to set a specific protocol (instead of the default \"secure protocols\"). It looks like this works:

QSslConfi

The way I've found to do this is to extend QNetworkAccessManager and set the protocol in createRequest:

class NetworkAccessManager : public QNetworkAccessManager
{
    Q_OBJECT
public:
    explicit NetworkAccessManager(QObject *parent = 0);

protected:
    virtual QNetworkReply * createRequest(Operation operation, const QNetworkRequest & request, QIODevice * outgoingData = 0) {
        // I have no idea why request is const, but I need to change it
        QNetworkRequest notConstRequest = request;
        QSslConfiguration conf = notConstRequest.sslConfiguration();
        conf.setProtocol(QSsl::TlsV1_0);
        notConstRequest.setSslConfiguration(conf);
        return QNetworkAccessManager::createRequest(operation, notConstRequest, outgoingData);
    }
};

Then I can set it in my QWebpage using setNetworkAccessManager.
