[SOLVED] Problem with qtcpserver socket not triggering event loop slots
-
hello , please help with qtcpserver class , it manages to open socket from incoming connection and also keeps it open if want to send any data from server but wont trigger readyread signals and slots.
If ready read called mannually it has all data in row that was sent.
How to make this code correct so signals and slots work.It does not have to accept multiple clients , for one class instance 1 client is good.

@Q139
In NewConnection() you are resetting bascially ConSocket for each new connection request to the server.
In initialize_slots() you did connect, but those are only valid to the current pointer you have stored in ConSocket. When you assign the sockets those connects are becoming obsolete respectively are are remaining with the original pointer.void TCP_Server_File::NewConnection() { ConSocket = server->nextPendingConnection(); ConSocket->write("hello from server"); connect(ConSocket, SIGNAL(disconnected()),this, SLOT(disconnected())); connect(ConSocket, SIGNAL(bytesWritten(qint64)),this, SLOT(bytesWritten(qint64))); connect(ConSocket, SIGNAL(readyRead()),this, SLOT(readyReadCon())); }
This will probably work in your case, but still has an issue with memory. The previous QTcpSocket stays alive and creates a memory leak.

Thanks alot, will try minimalize or remove leak.
Thanks for good explaining. -
You are welcome.
BTW you may remove all ConSocket related stuff from initialize_slots. The sockets will be delivered lateron from QTcpServer.
