[solved] deal cards and add to the scene

[Marcius]

I can't believe I did it (given my almost non-existent experience), but I finally got rid of the errors by providing my own class copy and assignment operator constructors. Please keep tuned though, will see where it leads me to.. :)

[SGaist]

What you are doing is risky, you've got the error because the base class (QGraphicsPixmapItem ) explicitly forbids the copy.

If you look at QGraphicsScene you see that you addItem takes a pointer to an item

[Marcius]

I see what you're saying. I actually may be having problems because of that at the moment (not sure yet though). How would you go about this issue then? Quite frankly, I still don't know which which part of my program causes the error.

[SGaist]

Just allocate your Cards on the heap and not on the stack

[Marcius]

I tried that, although I still can't remove copy and assignment operator constructors without getting the same error..

[SGaist]

Because somewhere in your code you are doing a copy. Are you using a QList<Card> or something similar ?

[Marcius]

I saw your reply in my other post and I indeed did do copies by using vector. I'm changing my code around now.

Check this line @ vector<Card*> * player = new vector<Card*>; @ Is it correct? And if so, how do I iterate through player? I'm getting a little confused with all these pointers.

[SGaist]

Just use vector<Card *> player, there's no need of a pointer for the vector

[Marcius]

@
for (vector<Card*>::iterator iter = player.begin();
iter != player.end(); ++iter)
{
qDebug() << iter->GetSuit()
}
@

How do I call GetSuit() function? This is obviously incorrect

[SGaist]

With

@(*iter)->GetSuit();@

You should be good

[Marcius]

Tried it before I asked :) But I get an error: "expression must have pointer-to-class type"

[SGaist]

Sorry, there was a mistake in my code example

[Marcius]

Ah, simple as that. Works like a charm :)

[SGaist]

Yes, sometimes it's a simple thing :) But can be hard to track down :-D
