Unsolved wrong output if QProcess is called multiple times
-
Hallo,
I write a program which scans for DAB stations. Therefor I have to run the same command several times.
The problem is, the frequencies are found, then each frequency gets tuned to and after that it reads all transponders from the locked frequency and writes it to a file. This works pretty well, except that the second tuned station has the same transponders from the first tuned station in the output.
Looks like in the for statement it does not clear the buffer and rereads it.
Result in Debug:

@Vitalic66 said in wrong output if QProcess is called multiple times:
process_dab_trans.start("/opt/bin/mediaclient --scandabservices /dev/dab0");
process_dab_trans.start("/opt/bin/mediaclient -m DAB -f " + freq_avail.at(i) + " --scandabservices /dev/dab0");
process_dab_trans.waitForFinished();This can't work as you're using same QProcess instance to start two different processes at the same time!
You even get a warning in your output:
QProcess::start: Process is already running -
Warning is gone, but still the same result.
//tune to frequency QProcess process_dab_trans_1; process_dab_trans_1.start("/opt/bin/mediaclient -m DAB -f " + freq_avail.at(i)); process_dab_trans_1.waitForFinished(); //read transponders from tuned frequency QProcess process_dab_trans_2; process_dab_trans_2.start("/opt/bin/mediaclient -m DAB -f " + freq_avail.at(i) + " --scandabservices /dev/dab0"); process_dab_trans_2.waitForFinished();

I guess I got it, in the while statement I set
line_dab_trans.clear();
as last statement. Now it works.

Now it works.
great, so please don't forget to mark your post as solved!
