    Hello , I was successfully build a TCP client with QTcpSocket and it works fine both read and write data.
    However when I move my connect tcp code from mainwindow constructor to the pushbutton clicked slot function
    I can't read the data from server end anymore !! I have no idea what's happened...
    I wanna switch tcp connection on and off and also update IP address when I clicked the button.

    Here is the code :
    in mainwindow constructor or on_clicked_connectBtn()

    if(handler->Connect()){
        qDebug() << "success";
    }else{
         qDebug() << "fail";
    }
    

    here is the code in handler->connect()

    bool Handler::connect{
        this->Socket = new QTcpSocket();
        this->Socket->ConnectToHost(ip, port);
        connect(this->Socket, SIGNAL(readyRead()), this, SLOT(Read));
        return Socket->waitForConnect();
    }
    

    and just

    qDebug() << this->Socket->readAll();
    

    in the Read() function.

    thx~

      Hi
      But does it connect?
      qDebug() << "success";
      Should not make any difference when moved from constructor :)

        Hi,

        Maybe a silly question but did you lose a set of parenthesis on your slot when moving your code in your connect statement ?

            Yup , I found the problem, It's a silly question, but not cuz the SLOT not connect.
            I new the TcpSocket every time when I clicked the button, so it just disconnect with TCP...
            now I solve it, thanks a lot.
