To use Qt Network classes,add this directive into the C++ files:
#include <QtNetwork>
To link against the Qt Network module, add this line to the project file:
QT += network

Qt Network can use the OpenSSL Toolkit as a backend. The library is then linked against OpenSSL in a way that requires compliance with the OpenSSL License. To allow linking OpenSSL with Qt Network under the GPL, following exceptions to the GPL do apply:
In addition, as a special exception, the copyright holders listed above give permission to link the code of its release of Qt with the OpenSSL project's "OpenSSL" library (or modified versions of the "OpenSSL" library that use the same license as the original version), and distribute the linked executables. You must comply with the GNU General Public License version 2 in all respects for all of the code used other than the "OpenSSL" code. If you modify this file, you may extend this exception to your version of the file, but you are not obligated to do so. If you do not wish to do so, delete this exception statement from your version of this file.
Also note shipping OpenSSL might cause Import and Export Restrictions to apply.
