reimplement mousePressEvent

void YourWidget::mousePressEvent(QMouseEvent *event)
{
    QMenu menu(this);
    QAction *action = menu.addAction("action");
    if (menu.exec(event->pos()) == action) {
        QMessageBox::information(this, "Next time I promise to google for the answers before asking");
    }
}

you may also use event filters to handle the mouse click events from the widgets that you dont derive from, i.e. if you have q plain QLabel, and you want to add a context menu to it. Read up in assistant about QObject::installEventFilter
