form on create function

[jsulm]

@freevrs As far as I can see wizard() returns a pointer. Is it possible that it returns an invalid pointer? And does it crash inside wizard()?

is it maby that because the wizard is created in the main.cpp

QWizard wizard;
    wizard.setWindowTitle("Setup");
    wizard.addPage(new WizardPage1());
    wizard.addPage(new WizardPage2());
    wizard.addPage(new WizardPage3());
    wizard.show();

and the wizardpacge2 is compiled before that , that wthe wizard() does not exist at this moment ?

Can you show the code in wizardpage2.cpp around the line 10?
In this line I can see that this is null:

#3  0x0aae5b9f in QWizard::button (this=0x0, which=QWizard::NextButton) at dialogs\qwizard.cpp:2818
        d = 0x15b6de38

And can you please explain what wizard() is doing? Wizard itself already exists when you create WizardPage2.

[jsulm]

@freevrs "and the wizardpacge2 is compiled before that , that wthe wizard() does not exist at this moment" I don't understand this sentence.
First, wizardpacge2 is not compiled - it is instantiated/created.
Second, "wizard() does not exist at this moment" - wizard() is a method, so it exists.

[freevrs]

@jsulm

wizard() is a method i can use after the wizardpage is created.

with that i can access elements of the wizard box (like buttons)

the wizard is created in the main function and than the wizard pages get added.

so i dont understand why i cant use it in the creator

http://doc.qt.io/qt-4.8/qwizard.html
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qwizardpage.html
http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/13844-How-to-disable-NextButton-in-QWizard

[jsulm]

@freevrs Please read the documentation (http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qwizardpage.html#wizard):

Returns the wizard associated with this page, or 0 if this page hasn't been inserted into a QWizard yet.

QWizard wizard;
wizard.addPage(new WizardPage2());

new WizardPage2() creates a new instance and calls its constructor - at that time the wizard is not yet set, it is set when wizard.addPage(...) is called which happens after the constructor was executed. That's why wizard() returns a null pointer in constructor.

[freevrs]

@jsulm

ok .. but how can i solve this ?

can i create a slot that is called on the addPage event an then call wizard() ?
Or do you have a better idea / solution for that.

What i need to achive is, that when the wizzard page is shown the next button is disabled

[jsulm]

@freevrs You can overwrite http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qwidget.html#showEvent

[kshegunov]

@freevrs

You can intercept the widget parent's swap by handling the QEvent::ParentChange. Also you can queue the initialization for later when control returns to the event loop, which would by my preference, e.g.:

class WizardPage2
{
public:
    WizardPage2(QWidget * parent);

private:
     Q_INVOKABLE void initMyPage();
};

WizardPage2::WizardPage2(QWidget * parent)
    : QWizardPage(parent)
{
    QMetaObject::invokeMethod(this, "initMyPage", Qt::QueuedConnection);
}

void WizardPage2::initMyPage()
{
    // wizard() should be pointing to an object now.
}

[SGaist]

Hi,

But why disable the wizard button in the constructor of the second page ? That's rather the role of the page validation. See QWizard::validateCurrentPage documentation.

[freevrs]

@kshegunov

Your solution works pretty good.

I implemented it on page2
but insted it is only setting the button on page 1 (not implemented there)
and not on page2

Do i need to use another event ?
