Yes.
It is auto-generated by the ui file and initalized with that.
(Eg. it doesn't pollute your own code, but it will be taken care of in the background.)

You can open the .ui file with an XML editor and see how it deals with the stuff.
Note that Qt will generate real C++ code from the .ui, and compile it along with the rest of the app.

Or if you want to do something when user changes selection in drop down menu (put this in constructor and create new slot):

Code:

connect(ui->myComboBox, SIGNAL(currentIndexChanged(QString),
this,
SLOT(comboBoxCurrentIndexChanged(QString));

Code:

void MainWindow::comboBoxCurrentIndexChanged(const QString &text) {
   //Do something
}

E: Bit late.

QProcess::execute("/sbin/myscript", arguments);

E: It's a good practise to check if variables are empty:

Code:

QString transition = ui->dropDownTransition->currentText();
//Not empty
if (!transition.isEmpty()) {
   //Do something
}

To create source package for autobuilder you need scratchbox.

I mean with php I would do it like this:
$variable1 = $_GET[drop_down_transitions]
$variable2 = $_GET[drop_down_font]
$variable3 = $_GET[drop_down_color]

And then just include it like this:

Code:

    QStringList arguments;
    arguments << "$variable1" << "$variable2" << "$variable3";
    QProcess::execute("/sbin/myscript", arguments);
