You might want to update your links, this one has been dead for quite a while now.

Added proper code tags [ @J-Hilk ]

Please use the code tags to make your code readable - currently noone can read anything in your code.

@nguyenhuy
As @Christian-Ehrlicher has said, please make the effort to use the forum's Code tags button.

Meanwhile, as per the error message, this code uses m_pImgCtrl which looks like a member variable but is not declared in the class in the .h file.

@Christian-Ehrlicher oh~ sr i'm newbiee

nguyenhuy

@SGaist yes please

@nguyenhuy said in help!: how to display image through http url:

@SGaist yes please

That's up to you to update them, you found them in the first place.

nguyenhuy

i tried i out with
@QbyteArray m_pImgCtrl;

JonB

@nguyenhuy
And?

I think you should be looking at https://wiki.qt.io/Download_Data_from_URL rather than your deceased nokia link. There you will see

m_pImgCtrl = new FileDownloader(imageUrl, this);

so you are supposed to figure for yourself that the member variable declaration will need to be

FileDownloader *m_pImgCtrl;

nguyenhuy

@JonB unknown type name FileDownloader

jsulm

@nguyenhuy Did you include filedownloader.h?

@nguyenhuy Why did you say that you included filedownloader.h if you did not?!
You have to include it in mainwindow.h as you use it there. Or, as an alternative, make a forward declaration of FileDownloader in mainwindow.h and include filedownloader.h in mainwindow.cpp.
This is basic C++ knowledge...
