Time count and display it

[J.Hilk]

@rockon209
you're missing some includes,

in this case add:

#include <QElapsedTimer>

[rockon209]

yes i have already included it in source file, but still the same error

@rockon209 said in Time count and display it:

in source file

That should go in the header file

[rockon209]

@VRonin but when i include it in header file my application crashes

my application crashes

That's not due to the #include could you post your code?

[rockon209]

main.cpp

#include "watch.h"
#include <QApplication>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    QApplication a(argc, argv);
    watch w;
    w.show();

    return a.exec();
}

watch.cpp

#include "watch.h"


watch::watch(QWidget *parent) :
    QWidget(parent)

{

    m_startButton=new QPushButton("Start",this);
    m_liveCounter = new QTimeEdit(this);
    m_intervalClock=new QTimer(this);
    connect(m_startButton,&QPushButton::clicked,this,[this](){m_elTim.start();});
    connect(m_intervalClock,&QTimer::timeout,this,[this](){if(m_elTim.isValid()) m_liveCounter->setTime(QTime(0,0).addMSecs(m_elTim.elapsed()));});
    m_intervalClock->start(500);
    QBoxLayout* mainLayout = new QHBoxLayout();
    mainLayout->addWidget(m_startButton);
    mainLayout->addWidget(m_liveCounter );
    setLayout(mainLayout);
}

watch.h

#ifndef WATCH_H
#define WATCH_H

#include <QWidget>
#include <QElapsedTimer>
#include <QPushButton>
#include <QTimeEdit>
#include <QTimer>
#include <QBoxLayout>
namespace Ui {
class watch;
}

class watch : public QWidget
{
    Q_OBJECT

public:
    explicit watch(QWidget *parent = 0);


private:
    QElapsedTimer m_elTim;
    QPushButton* m_startButton;
    QTimer* m_intervalClock;
    QTimeEdit* m_liveCounter;
};

#endif // WATCH_H

Can't see anything obvious (but I might just be blind). could you post your stack trace at the moment of crash?

[J.Hilk]

ah,

in your watch.h add #include<QElapsedTimer> and in your watch.cpp intilize it with m_elTim = new QElapsedTimer(); it's missing from @VRonin code example

It's on the stack so no need to do this. QElapsedTimer is not a QObject

[rockon209]

now the code is not crashing. everyting is running but when i push startbutton nothing happens

What did you change?

You're right of course, I must have missed that...

[rockon209]

I create a new code just to check if everyting works fine and then i found out that when i click startbutton nothing happens

[rockon209]

ok sorry guys it working but its not showing the seconds only minute and hours how to change the format? to hh:mm:ss
