Save object to a file
-
-
This is C/C++ basic knowledge. Without the header file how would your class know anything about Film ?
What problem would it be ?
-
Yes, it's exactly what I'm saying
-
If you are talking about the saveFilm problem and the message didn't changed, then saveFilm is still not a member of FilmInput.
Isn't it a member of FilmWriter ?
-
-
FilmWriter is a class, how do you call a function from a class ?
-
You create an object and call the function with the object. That's it! Ok so now you have helped me to get rid of that error, thanks a lot. Another question, when I click on the save film button which invokes saveFilm the program crashes, should I start a new thread because this is a new question or can you still help me on this one?
-
Run your application through the debugger, it will tell you where the crash occurs
-
I got this: The inferior stopped because it received a signal from the operating system
signal name: SIGSEGV
Signal meaning: Segmentation fault
then it is pointing to line 2185 in qglobal.h
inline QFlags operator&(Enum f) const { QFlags g; g.i = i & f; return g; } -
What does the stack trace look like ?
The lines under qglobal.h ? -
You have to use a picture hosting service or a public dropbox folder etc...

doesn't work with a space in the name

Looks strange... Just to be on the safe side, delete the build directory completely and re-run your application.
-
ok now it doesn't run again with a bunch of errors:

Error while building project Ass1Q1 (target: Desktop)
When executing build step 'Make' -
FilmWriter is not a QWidget, you can't pass it as a parent when you call QFileDialog::getSaveFileName
-
If I make FilmWriter a QWidget the program runs but when I click on the save film button it crashes with: "this application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information."
Despite the crash, the program runs without any errors as you can see:
