Convert small PyQt script to Qt C++

@JonB thanks for that and i understand!
Python
class Gradient(QtWidgets.QWidget):is that
C++
class gradient : public QWidget?
@Kris-Revi
Absolutely yes! Though we're going to go very slowly if you need to ask at each level like this question :)However, please follow the same convention in Python as in C++ and name your classes with an initial capital letter,
class Gradient : public QWidget!Not sure how much it will help, but at least some of the PySide2 doc pages show the Python equivalent of the same C++ doc page, e.g. as a purely random example, compare the sample boxed code in

self._gradient = sorted(self._gradient, key=lambda g:g[0])what would be the equal here in C++ ?
im stuck at this one!
@Kris-Revi
I assumed you would be familiar with C++, given that you want to translate from Python to C++?! :)To sort a
QVector--- or if you pick another type likestd::vector--- you will want to usestd::sort.See e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47989208/sort-qvector-of-pointers-to-custom-objects if you do the items as pointers, or I gave you
structsee https://forum.qt.io/topic/47037/solved-sorting-possible-on-a-qvector-that-has-a-struct-as-elements (that is old and some posts useqSort(), I suggest following @Chris-Kawa's post at https://forum.qt.io/topic/47037/solved-sorting-possible-on-a-qvector-that-has-a-struct-as-elements/8 which usesstd::sort()).I admit I'm not 100% sure what the Python
key=lambda g:g[0]is. I think it's just picking out the first field,stop, to sort on, not on thecolorfield! -

From a glance, it seems to me you are doing well. I hope you don't mean you are giving up having got this far? I can't spare much time, but do you want me to tell you the C++ for the couple of bits I see commented out in your.cpp? -

@JonB sadly i am giving up :/ when i ran this it gave me a shit load of errors (i know that 1 error can cause other things to error out aswell) but i couldn't figure out the error anyway so

That's why you should always fix the first error first :-)

i bet it wouldn't fix it anyway :/
@Kris-Revi
It would not fix errors, no! I'm not clear whether you are saying your "errors" are at compile/link time, or at runtime.... -
@Kris-Revi said in Convert small PyQt script to Qt C++:
i coded everything needed (the cpp and h i linked) befor testing so :/
I don't know what you mean here.
You wrote that you get errors when building the code, right?
So, start with the first error... -
Hi,
One issue in your code is in your constructor, you are checking if the vector is empty but you have the logic reversed. You do something with it when it's actually empty.

Can you share the errors you got ?

@Kris-Revi
Then, if you can't figure it, show us the first line at fault and what the error message is, if you'd like help... :)BTW, it won't affect your compile behaviour, but you absolutely need to heed @SGaist's earlier observation for your run-time behaviour. Plus, I didn't follow the logic for the consequence, but you still have the commented-out initialization of the array when it's empty to deal with.

Merry Christmas!https://github.com/DeiVadder/QWidgetGradient.git
After some testing, the functionality is kind of strange, not sure if thats intended behavior, or if I made a bug 🤔
For you to find out I guess 😜 -

i get these errors in the Header file alone

remove the [[nodiscard]] attribute, its not needed, and if your compiler is not c++17 capable, no need to have it there
Edit: check the repo, I updated it, inclusive a bugfix I found.
