Pass a method to QtConcurrent::map

kshegunov

Do I need to switch the language version to C++11 anywhere?

Depending on the compiler and Qt version, probably, yes. You can add CONFIG += c++11 to your project file and if the compiler supports it it'll be enabled.

That did not help.
This is what I just downloaded and installed with Qt 5.6 as the only version checked off in the setup:

Qt Creator 3.6.1

Hm. It should've worked. As far as I remember VS 2013 should support most of the C++11 features. Could you post the full compile line for the file you're getting the error at?

PS.
Also try declaring the variables for the capture explicitly and see how it goes:

int x0 = widget.spX0->value(), y0 = widget.spY0->value();
auto func = [ x0, y0] (int& iteration) -> int { // 102
    return iteration;
};

Interesting enough, I started re-factoring the project to move the computations out of the GUI class, and my new class compiles fine when all I capture is [this], then refer to the member variables inside the lambda's body.

PS: Your workaround works. I will wrap that with #if defined (Q_OS_WIN) etc.

PPS: But now I am getting lots of linker errors similar to this:

newform.obj:-1: error: LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) public: __cdecl QtConcurrent::ThreadEngineBase::ThreadEngineBase(void)" (__imp_??0ThreadEngineBase@QtConcurrent@@QEAA@XZ) referenced in function "public: __cdecl QtConcurrent::IterateKernel<int *,void>::IterateKernel<int *,void>(int *,int *)" (??0?$IterateKernel@PEAHX@QtConcurrent@@QEAA@PEAH0@Z)

Do I need to add linking against a library when working under Windows?

PPPS: This does not make any sense: I am editing the .pro file adding and removing concurrent from QT but still getting this line in the output every time:

15:01:05: Configuration unchanged, skipping qmake step.

Only to the Qt modules as far as I know. Qt += core gui widgets concurrent etc. It should be working out of the box.

nulluse

See my last update - adding QT += concurrent does not change anything as the project thinks configuration is not changing.

@nulluse
Sometimes the IDE is not as smart and it doesn't understand the .pro has changed. Run qmake explicitly (somewhere in the build menu) and do a rebuild after that.

nulluse

Forcing rebuild does not change anything. The pro file looks like this now:

#-------------------------------------------------
#
# Project created by QtCreator 2016-04-18T13:54:41
#
#-------------------------------------------------

QT += core gui concurrent
greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets
TARGET = MandelbrotQt
TEMPLATE = app
SOURCES += main.cpp\
        newform.cpp \
    helpers/fileHelper.cpp \
    mandelbrot/mandelbrot.cpp
HEADERS  += newform.h \
    helpers/fileHelper.h \
    mandelbrot/mandelbrot.h \
    ui_newForm.h
FORMS    += newform.ui
LIBS += -lQt5Concurrent
CONFIG += c++11

The linker is still complaining.

kshegunov

@nulluse
It looks okay to me, with the only exception of this line: LIBS += -lQt5Concurrent. You shouldn't need to pass that to the linker, adding the QT += concurrent is enough (qmake will generate the appropriate include files and linker switches).

nulluse

Running qmake fixed it!
