    @Proton-Phoenix said in loading data from database using another thread:

    it works fast as i want ..
    but the problem is i don't know how to make it work on another thread may be someday it needs to calculate 10000 rows per month .. so it will freeze The Main Thread and GUI... i tried everything ..
    can someone help me on this?

    Your code looks a little bit confusing:

    • why do you do qry.prepare(...) and then qry.exec(...) with the same string? you can remove qry.prepare
    • using qry.value(9).toFloat() with SELECT * FROM ... is not really appropriated. I recommend you to change this to ensure you will get the value you want.
    • and if(counters==NULL) should be if(counters==0) or if(!counters)

    I would change this to:

    void benefits::on_monthvbutton_clicked()
    {
        counters = 0;
        QSqlQuery qry(db);
        qry.prepare("SELECT * FROM fac WHERE month=:data";
        qry.bindValue(":data", ui->monthdateedit->text());
        if(qry.exec())
        {
            qDebug()<<"yep works";
            int colCounter = query.record().indexOf("counter"); // I suppose column name is counter
        
            while(qry.next()){
                counters +=qry.value(colCounter).toFloat();
            }
        }else{
           //ui->statusfacture->setText(qry.lastError().text());
        }  
        if(counters==0){
            ui->benefitmonthtextedit->setText(QString(""));
        }else{
            ui->benefitmonthtextedit->setText(QString("you have %1 as benefits this month <font color='red'>dollars</font><font color='green'> Canadian</font>").arg(counters));
        }
    }

    @KroMignon
    Thank you so much bro
    i was using qry.exec() due to postgresql
    when i used QSqlite i used only prepare with binds ..
    but when i moved to postgresql it doesn't work at all with prepare and binds
    only on qry.exec()
    about counters +=qry.value(9).toFloat();

    every row has a double value the benefits of a payment ...
    so it get's all the rows which contain the same month ... and calculate the full benefits result

    ...

          Yes I know, but this is only the result of the request, there are no SQL statement which will be handled. Only the result of the old request.
          What's wrong with this?

            @KroMignon
            hi bro again
            is there any solution
            with const lambda

            while(qry.next()){  // error here
                              counters +=qry.value(colCounter).toFloat();
                          }
            

            it says this error !
            'this' argument to member function 'next' has type 'const QSqlQuery', but function is not marked const
            qsqlquery.h:92:10: note: 'next' declared here

              No, you cannot use QSqlQuery::next(), with a const instance.

                  QSqlQuery does not have the data, it only fetches the data when you call e.g. next() so it still uses the database connection.

                    Indeed, that's sound bad :(
                    I misunderstood how QSqlQuery works, I believe it launch the request and store the result locally.

                      This would be a very bad behavior for large result sets.

                        You are right.
                        This will made this a little bit more complex, because the SQL connection have to leave in another thread, which means a new DB connection is required.
