Unsolved Weird behavior for Qt Creator when removing events for objects.
-
Over the course of debugging parts of my project I will occasionally remove functions for an object-say QListview and I no longer need the itemChanged event. So I will delete it from the MainWindow.cpp.
Everything seems "fine" for the moment, however maybe 10 minutes go by and I update part of my code and sure enough I get a reference to a piece of code that I deleted. I don't have the error off the top of my head I am currently at work,, but for some reason the deletion of events for objects never stay deleted for long. It is quite annoying and I am curious if there is a fix for this.
Also if anyone can have the "Tree" view not rely on dark theme colors while in project mode?
Thanks.

I don't quite understand what you mean.
Can you please show some code - before and after the change you mean?Also, sometimes it helps to do a complete rebuild: delete build folder, run qmake and build.

Say for example I have QListview and I am using the itemChanged to debug something.....then I find out I don't need itemChanged but instead need itemSelected so I delete itemChanged, its pointless no longer needed.
So I keep pushing along and critiquing my app just doing whatever, then I hit the green arrow to run.....and then I get a reference to itemChanged for Qlistview saying referenced to non existing function.
I will get an error to add to the moc file Yes to All, something about the project being changed outside the directory and I get an Elf error in the program. If I go to form_ui.h and remove the functioin of itemChanged it works....but I have to keep deleting the declarative statment, its as if Qt won't let me delete the declaration.
I don't have the information off the top of my head, but its the best I can describe at the moment....I am currently at work so I am unable to debug at the moment, once I am home I will gladly enter the information.

Hi
you must also delete them from mainwindow.hSlots are just like normal functions with a definition and a body so
it must be removed from both .cpp and .h -

Hi
That can be some of the xx_ui files somehow ended up in project folder.
Or the usual case where one must to a clean all, rebuild or even delete the build folder.In any case, if you delete the slot function, its normally gone.

How do any of those things even happen?

Hi
Hard to say. often with shadow building setting turning it on/of or change path.
The reason for deleting the build folder is that sometimes make cachces things.
