Volker, Kxyu,
Got the point. There is actually no way to pass the QLineEdit pointer (or any other data) into the slot via a connect statement. The only data I can gather inside the slot will be the ones which is passed by the signal signature. So, I've to declare the QLineEdit inside the class itself. I think that resolves the problem at the moment for my code. But as I searched around little bit hard, I got another case which is almost similar to mine "here":http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/27919-Override-a-signal. The only different thing is that, he uses a UI file, which is I'm not clear about. Anyway, I think my problem is resolved as of now. :)
Thanks a lot friends.
