QCoreApplication::aboutToQuit is not a signal

[KoneTaH]

@SPlatten What are the types of those clsJSON::mscszAck and clsJSON::mscszCmdHB? If they are both strings, this clazy warning is probably correct because there are overloads with multiple string arguments:

https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qstring.html#arg-14

Your code should work perfectly as well, but it may be suboptimal.

You should read the documentation of the suggested arg overload before opening a report.

[SPlatten]

@KoneTaH they are static const char*, the prefix:

m = member
s = static
c = const
sz = null terminated string

clsJSON is the name of the class they belong to. I tried using the multi-arg version, its just not right. As I said, regardless of the message the code works and does exactly what I intended.

[SPlatten]

@SGaist I have and I'm using the multi-arg version elsewhere in my code.

@SPlatten
If you want to know why you are getting this warning, I suggest that https://www.kdab.com/uncovering-32-qt-best-practices-compile-time-clazy/, 29. qstring-arg, is giving you the answer:

Detects chained QString::arg() calls which should be replaced by the multi-arg overload to save memory allocations.

    QString("%1 %2").arg(a).arg(b); // Bad
    QString("%1 %2").arg(a, b); // one less temporary heap allocation

As @KoneTaH noted

Your code should work perfectly as well, but it may be suboptimal.

@JonB , the problem with:

QString("%1 %2").arg(a, b);

Is that the arguments for arg depend on the types being passed, there are 22 overloaded versions, here's the first:

This is wrong. What others are talking about is: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qstring.html#arg-22
Which is a template with arbitrary number of parameters and types. The only requirements is:
"Args can consist of anything that implicitly converts to QString, QStringView or QLatin1String.".

SPlatten,

I am getting these same errors now as well. Did you ever find a solution?

Thanks.

[SPlatten]

@Zetrick , No, it still does it, I've reported the bugs.

SPlatten,
I'm writing this code:

connect(set_Btn,&QPushButton::clicked,this,&Shudu::showQipan);

and the qt creator also brings a prob that says:

QAbstractButton::clicked is not a signal [clazy-connect-non-signal]

do u have and idea or it's the same problem you have?

[SPlatten]

@Justinxiang , its a rubbish message, there are lots of issues like this where signals that are signals are reported as not being signals...check the headers and documentation you will see that your code is ok.

[J.Hilk]

I disabled the check, because it drove me nuts :D

seems to be a MacOS problem only, doesn't happen in the same project on my Windows VM
