Login window

Hi Ninio,
Though it might work like that you have a potential memory leak at hand. When the new MainWindow is created it will give you the pointer to it so you can reverence it later on in your program. If the new operator is inside your logInWindow the pointer will be destroyed when the LogInWindow function is closed making the MainWindow unreachable by your code! The mw pointer should then be a public MainWindow pointer.
When the pointer is not accessable anymore the memory can't be released until the program shutdown. When a new logIn Window is created a complete new mainwindow will appear.
Might be better to use a parent pointer in the LogInWindow to alter the mainWindow show/hide options.

Ah, oke, learned something new there. Nice, but still it is bad pratice to create a new object and don't keep the pointer at hand ;-)

Hi all,
I tried to resolve the problem by writing a code example: (Connecting to a PostgreSQL data base)create a login window
create a data base connection
show the login window
enter the username and the passwd (repeat until the login is accepted or the operation is canceled)
login succeeded ==> create and show the main window
@
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
QApplication app(argc, argv);LoginWindow Lwindow;
/* accepted = 1; rejected = 0; */
int result;
bool pass = false;
int response;QSqlDatabase Dbase;
Dbase = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QPSQL");
Dbase.setHostName("localhost");
Dbase.setDatabaseName("database_name");while(!pass)
{
Lwindow.exec();
result = Lwindow.result();
if(result == 0)
{
pass = true;
Lwindow.done(0);
return 0;
}
else
{
QString user = Lwindow.getUser();
QString password = Lwindow.getPassword();
Dbase.setUserName(user);
Dbase.setPassword(password);
pass = Dbase.open();/* if(m_dbase.lastError().isValid()) */
if(!pass)
{
response = QMessageBox::critical(NULL, "Data Base Access Problem",Dbase.lastError().text(),QMessageBox::Cancel|QMessageBox::Retry);
if(response == QMessageBox::Cancel)
{
pass = true;
return 0;
}
}
}
}MainWindow Mwindow(Dbase);
Mwindow.setGeometry(100,100,500,600);
Mwindow.show();
return app.exec();

I tried to resolve the problem by writing a code example like this :
[/quote]Nice. And what was the result of that attempt? Did it work? If it did: congrats. If it did not: what failed exactly? What did you expect?
-
If you ask me it should work just fine. Maybe a bit of comments to add, but looks fine to me. Did it work??

It works well ! ;)

Dear issam,
Where is the Lwindow definition? Do you separate into lwindow.cpp and lwindow.h?
Thanks in advance.
