So I've done some digging, but came up with nothing thus far because I feel that this would be a close to impossible task. But I am more than willing to look on my own, I wanted to know if it was possible to access Google related resources using QT Creator. So For example if I wanted to use say Google analytics, what would I need to research? Would I need to have some sort of app-engine side?
Thanks!
You can access most of the Google products by using the corresponding API (AppEngine is not required for that). This link lists all available Google APIs. You can then access it using the Google API Client for C++, but the C++ binding seems to be in alpha.
Edit:
It seems that Google stopped the development and support of the C++ binding for their APIs. The library source code can still be found on Github.

I was able to call Google Map API in my MFC project for years, but not any more(year 2018). Now my C++ based project shows a script error for Google Map API even after putting in a new API key.
How can I call the Google Map API and use it in Windows Applications based on c++ projects?
There are several ways to do a request to any API using c++, few examples are:
C++ light wrapper
Qt
CPR.
You may also edit your question and add what kind of errors if your problem isn't about deprecation or a specific library that you're using so you can get a fix solution.
Are there any API's for google-drive in C++/Qt OR Any tool like Insync which is free for use and can be used for accessing and managing on google-drive.
I have tried using qt-google-drive by ics but it's still under development.
You can use Google Drive from essentially anything that can generate HTTP requests (and, obviously, use the reply data).
The Google Drive SDK doesn't include any examples written in C++, but as you can see in the reference section, it's all done with fairly normal HTTP GETs, POSTs, etc.
What API is available to use Facebook from C or C++, and is there a library to do the grunt work for me? (So that you for instance can use Facebook from a desktop program written in C++.)
Thanks sehe.
Yes you are able to develop Facebook application using C/C++.
Here's a good API http://projects.seligstein.com/facebook/
You can develop a Facebook Application in whatever language you want, as long as you can ask for data over the network. The API does not care what language you are using to query it. The SDKs are only there as a starting point for languages that are commonly used to write applications, such as JavaScript and PHP.
EDIT:
I know the question has already been "answered", but since the asker changed their question, here is information about repositories on github which may serve as starting points for modern Open Graph API C++ applications. All of these are open source :)
https://github.com/search?type=Repositories&language=C%2B%2B&q=facebook&repo=&langOverride=&x=14&y=20&start_value=1
sure you can my facebook Graph mobile app is developed using Qt c++
How do you use cloud storage such as Dropbox in your C++ Apllication ? I've checked out their API and they only have Java, Python, and Ruby options. If you cant use dropbox with a c++ app, is therte any cloud storage provider that has an API for C++.
The drop box APIs seem to be wrappers for a http interface.
So if you want to hit them up from C++ you can use a http supporting library like libcurl to access stuff using the REST api
Droper is an open source C++/Qt Dropbox client that I have recently wrote. It can be compiled for Windows and Linux, but the GUI is optimized for Symbian mobile phones. Check it out.
I've found several differnet APIs on their website, righ under the place you propably found the ruby / pathon stuff..
http://sharpbox.codeplex.com/

Not sure if this is, wha you were looking for..
Google Docs does provide sharing of files.But it does not provide sharing of folders.
Is there any way by which I can share the folders too? Can I write my own application/program for it?
If yes, then how?
UPDATE: Now this question is no longer
useful.Gmail now supports folder
sharing too.Cheers!
The best place to start is to go through the documentation. I would also recommend you check out this videocast (it shows how to do this in PHP, but you should be able to replicate this to any other language you might be using). Good luck.
I found a discussion at google (support forum, I'd link if I could have more than one/post)
Down the page there is a link to an app that supposedly uses new API features to implement folder sharing
http://tng.appspot.com/2009/9/Folder-Sharing-in-Google-Docs-now-possible
After reading my blog post mentioned by goorj you can try out my folder sharing app at
http://folders.gdoclab.com
You will be asked to login using you google account and give permission to manipulate you google docs sharing permission. It works for plain google accounts not for google apps accounts yet (but I am working on that too ...)
Yes you can write your own application using Google docs APIs.
