Hi loladiro, thanks for the reply. I took a look at your link and I have implemented the method explained in your link. When using write_loop in my main.cpp, i wrote: write_loop(h, samp, area);
When using set_swparams, i wrote set_swparams(h, swparams)
When using set_hwparams, i wrote set_hwparams(h, hwparams, transfer_methods[method].access)
as shown in the posts above. but i am still getting the same errors. Please look at my posts above more carefully. -
Is that all of your main.cpp? I'm confused as to how that is even a Qt app at all, except for your including the wave.h stuff.
Your code is a teeny bit hard to read, and I'm not sure where the logic begins and the errors start... I don't mean that in a mean way, but only that it's a little hard to try to figure out what's supposed to be happening.
Are you somehow trying to reimplement alsa function calls in your wave.cpp file? Inside the on_pushButton_clicked method?

Sorry if its hard to read. I am trying to show that in wave.cpp, I have 3 functions in that file i.e. write_loop, set_swparams and set_hwparams. I have code inside the on_pushButton_clicked method. I am trying to implement alsa. However, that code seems to be running fine. But when I try to use the functions write_loop, set_swparams and set_hwparams in main.cpp, I am getting the errors main.o: In functionmain’: /home/test/Documents/Wave-build-desktop/../Wave/main.cpp:96: undefined reference to
set_hwparams(_snd_pcm*, _snd_pcm_hw_params*, _snd_pcm_access)’

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status.I have also implemented these functions in my header file. So what I am having a problem with is implementing these three functions in main.cpp.
I hope this is a better explanation. Sorry -
You usually declare the methods or functions in a header file and implement it in a source file (.c or .cpp). Your problem has nothing to do with Qt (despite that the methods are called from some slot or the like).
Are you really sure you have implemented the methods and that implementation is actually compiled?
-
I'm still confused as to you're redefining the functions in wave.cpp. They are already defined in the alsa library, no? It should just be a matter of calling the functions that already exist in the library, rather than creating your own versions.
-
Oh, it's alsa functions. Then it's essential to include the headers provided by alsa and link against the appropriate libraries. And it is a no-no to redeclare the functions in your own header file!
-
And we already discussed the linking "here.":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/forums/viewthread/8227/P15/ earier.

Ouch ... I didn't reach that post in my backlog reading :-)
-
It's ok. It took a while to drill down to exactly what the problem was, regardless. :-)
-
No problem. I'm on a huge backlog (or rather unread clicked away posts) due to some vacation.
So this thread can be closed?
-
I think we've probably gotten to the problem, but I imagine it depends on if ogopa feels like his question's been answered or not.

Sorry for my language it was wrong. I have defined the function in wave.cpp. I have declared it in the header file wave.h and I have called it in main.cpp. Isn't this the method used to call functions from my main.cpp to wave.cpp?

I have defined functions that I wrote myself as it contains content that I wrote, it is not a predefined function that already exists in the alsa library. The functions I wrote are write_loop(), set_sw_params() and set_hwparams().I'm really sorry for my terrible explanations so far.

Are you needing, perhaps, to put the static functions inside of your wave class, then? Then you could call them from main using wave::write_loop(), etc.? That seems like it might be a cleaner implementation than trying to deal with file scope and all kinds of C-like stuff.

Yes, i'm sure -

Then I'm bailed out. We cannot guess, what's going on.
I suggest, you boil down the problem to a small, yet complete and compilable test case and provide us the sources. Then we can have a look. Just add some dummy implementation for your functions.

[/quote]Qt Creator doesn't allow to place functions inside a wave class for example inside a class of the pushbutton i.e mine is void on_pushButton_clicked().
