I get an
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:

Please advise what I am doing wrong. Can I not inline the method definitions in the class for some reason in Qt?
You need to add your class to the .pro file
HEADERS += mynet.h
SOURCES += mynet.cpp
so the meta-object compiler can scan them and work out they need moc'ing and generate the relevant stubs.
Assuming that your source file is named foo.cpp, you have to put the following line at the very end:
#include "foo.moc"
This line tells qmake and the VS Qt add-in that the file should be run via moc, and that the generated moc file should be named foo.moc.
You also have problems in the #include lines for Qt headers. I've found that the following work:
#include <QtCore/QCoreApplication>
#include <QtNetwork/QTcpServer>
#include <QtNetwork/QTcpSocket>
Make sure to add network to your .pro file. This will create the correct linking to the network library functions.
QT += core network
Two things:
1) You should publicly derive from QObject.
2) Are you moc'ing this file and then compiling and linking the output? If you include the Q_OBJECT macro and don't moc, you will get an error like that.

I've found the answer while writing the question, but I wrote the question anyway. Some people might find it useful.

I forgot the --dest argument. :>
None of the tutorials available online show how to create a Qt HTML5 application. Ideally, I just need a way to send data (a string will do) between webkit and Qt.
When I create a Qt HTML5 Application It generates
myApp.pro
html5applicationviewer.pri // comments say dont touch this file
html5applicationviewer.h // comments say dont touch this file
html5applicationviewer.cpp // comments say dont touch this file
main.cpp
index.html
So how do I add a function in C++ to communicate with the browser and how do I add a function in the browser to communicate with C++?
This example is old but still work and is very simple and clean.
Also you may want to take a look to qtwebkit-bridge and the tutorial.
edit
add a file called myclass.h
#include "html5applicationviewer/html5applicationviewer.h"
class MyClass : public Html5ApplicationViewer
{
Q_OBJECT
public:
explicit MyClass(QWidget *parent=0);
private slots:
void addToJavaScript();
public slots:
QString test(const QString ¶m);
};
add a file called myclass.cpp
#include <QDebug>
#include <QGraphicsWebView>
#include <QWebFrame>
#include "myclass.h"
MyClass::MyClass(QWidget *parent) : Html5ApplicationViewer(parent) {
QObject::connect(webView()->page()->mainFrame(),
SIGNAL(javaScriptWindowObjectCleared()), SLOT(addToJavaScript()));
}
void MyClass::addToJavaScript() {
webView()->page()->mainFrame()->addToJavaScriptWindowObject("MyClass", this);
}
QString MyClass::test(const QString ¶m) {
qDebug() << "from javascript " << param;
return QString("from c++");
}
in your .pro add
SOURCES += main.cpp myclass.cpp
HEADERS += myclass.h
in your .html add
try {
alert(MyClass.test("test string"));
} catch(err) {
alert(err);
}
in your main.cpp add include:
#include "myclass.h"
and change:
Html5ApplicationViewer viewer;
to:
MyClass viewer;
What is wrong with the code bellow? When I compile it I get a warning that file not found. Something is invalid. I'm probably making a few mistakes here. I think the problem is perhaps with the way I inherit from QWidget.

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication a(argc, argv);
FileDialogs w;
w.openFile();

I know this Question is very old. But in my case it was another problem.
I had to include the path of the headers manually in the .pro file.

I am working on building a GUI around a console application. I would like to be able to click a button to run the console app and show the console output inside of the GUI itself. How might I accomplish this? I am working in Linux.
You could also try QProcess. It provides a Qt interface to launching external processes, reading their I/O and waiting, or not, on their completion.
For your purpose, it sounds like you want the process to run asynchronously, so code might look like :
myprocessstarter.h :
#include <QObject>
#include <QProcess>
#include <QDebug>
class MyProcessStarter : public QObject
{
Q_OBJECT
public:
MyProcessStarter() : QObject() {};
void StartProcess();
private slots:
void readStandardOutput();
private:
QProcess *myProcess;
};
main.cpp:
#include "myprocessstarter.h"
void MyProcessStarter::StartProcess()
{
QString program = "dir";
QStringList arguments;
// Add any arguments you want to be passed
myProcess = new QProcess(this);
connect(myProcess, SIGNAL(readyReadStandardOutput()), this, SLOT(readStandardOutput()));
myProcess->start(program, arguments);
}
void MyProcessStarter::readStandardOutput()
{
QByteArray processOutput;
processOutput = myProcess->readAllStandardOutput();
qDebug() << "Output was " << QString(processOutput);
}
void main(int argc, char** argv)
{
MyProcessStarter s;
s.StartProcess();
}
I wanted to do something similar in one of my applications. I redirected all output from the standard stream (cout) to my console window. To periodically read out the stream contents I use a timer loop. Works fine for me.
StdRedirector.cpp
#include "StdRedirector.h"
QMutex coutMutex;
void outcallback(const char* ptr, std::streamsize count, void* bufferString)
{
string *b = (string *) bufferString;
string t;
for (int i=0; i < count; i++)
{
if (ptr[i] == '\n')
{
t = t + "\n";
} else {
t = t + ptr[i];
}
}
coutMutex.lock();
*b = *b + t;
coutMutex.unlock();
}
void ConsoleWindow::updateTimer(void)
{
coutMutex.lock();
if (bufferString.size() > 0)
{
consoleBox->insertPlainText(QString(bufferString.c_str()));
bufferString.clear();
QScrollBar *sb = consoleBox->verticalScrollBar();
sb->setValue(sb->maximum());
}
coutMutex.unlock();
}
ConsoleWindow::ConsoleWindow(QWidget *parent) : QWidget(parent)
{
consoleBox = new QTextEdit(this);
consoleBox->setReadOnly(true);
stdRedirector = new StdRedirector<>(std::cout, outcallback, &bufferString);
QVBoxLayout *vb = new QVBoxLayout();
vb->addWidget(consoleBox);
vb->setMargin(0);
vb->setSpacing(0);
setLayout(vb);
QTimer *timer = new QTimer(this);
connect(timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), this, SLOT(updateTimer()));
timer->start(100);
}
ConsoleWindow::~ConsoleWindow()

delete stdRedirector;

Take a look at the popen() function, it might do what you need.
Then you could pass the FILE * to a QTextStream and work in Qt style with it.
I suggest, rather than showing stdout in GUI, having own console output, which essentially means all messages you want to show to users you are sending to your own output.
This way you can have debug messages and such still available from console, wtih potential errors with connections and whatever that can happen and have fully controlled console output in GUI application. Of course this output can also be outputted to stdout so it is visible in console, but it also allows you to append a prefixs like WARNING LOG NOTICE NO_THIS_WENT_WRONG or whatever you want to show to users as your console entry.
I know similar question to this have been asked, but I haven't found an answer that fixes my problem.
I'm adapting some existing Qt code to add server functionality to a program my company uses. To that end I added a QTcpServer object to the existing dialog, call listen() and connect a slot to the newConnection emitter, like:
.h
class QConsole : public QDialog
{
Q_OBJECT
public:
void init();
public slots:
void new_Connection();
private:
QTcpServer m_Server;
}
.cpp
void QConsole::init()
{
m_Server.listen(QHostAddress::Any, 12346);
QDialog::connect(&m_Server, SIGNAL(newConnection()), this, SLOT(new_Connection()));
}
Main is:
int main( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
QApplication app(argc, argv);
QConsole * _output_window = new QConsole(desktopRect);
_output_window->init();
_output_window->show();
return app.exec();
}
new_Connection() never gets called so I can't see the relevance, but here it is:
void QConsole::new_Connection()
{
}
This works fine in that my program starts listening on the port specified and if I telnet to it a connection of sorts it made, but new_Connection() is never ever ever called!
I've seen posts on this problem dating back to 2005 so it's obviously not a new thing, but what I haven't found is a satisfactory answer to the problem (or any answer actually). This has got everyone at work stumped, even the person that has written a Qt server program. I'm guessing that there is something fundamentally wrong with the existing framework, but I have no idea what it might be.
I have been tearing my hair out for a day and a half over this, and the closes I got to success was using waitForNewConnection() which would actually return me a socket, but when I connected to the readReady() emitter, that was never fired either. So what would prevent these signals never getting called?
Please spare my sanity and help me as much as you can.
Here is a complete working example, tested using MSVC++ 2010.
This listens for a connection on port 12346, replies with "HELLO WORLD" and logs the connection to a list on the dialog.
main.cpp
#include <QtGui>
#include "console.hpp"
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
QApplication app(argc, argv);
Console con;
con.show();
return app.exec();
}
console.hpp
#include <QtCore>
#include <QtGui>
#include <QtNetwork>
class Console : public QDialog
{
Q_OBJECT
public:
Console();
public slots:
void connection();
private:
QTcpServer mServer;
QListWidget* mConnList;
};
console.cpp
#include "console.hpp"
Console::Console() :
QDialog(),
mServer(),
mConnList(new QListWidget())
{
if (!mServer.listen(QHostAddress::Any, 12346))
qDebug() << "Error during 'listen'" << mServer.errorString();
connect(&mServer, SIGNAL(newConnection()), this, SLOT(connection()));
QVBoxLayout* mainLayout = new QVBoxLayout();
mainLayout->addWidget(mConnList);
setLayout(mainLayout);
}
void Console::connection()
{
qDebug() << "CONNECTION";
QTcpSocket* skt = mServer.nextPendingConnection();
if (!skt)
return;
mConnList->addItem(QString("%1:%2").arg(skt->peerAddress().toString()).arg(skt->peerPort()));
skt->write("HELLO WORLD!\r\n");
skt->close();
}

Another working example, again on Linux, although I have coded a program using QTcpServer to run on both Linux and Windows before without a problem. If this doesn't work, surely it must be either a Qt installation or OS configuration problem. Either that or a bug in the Qt version.
