Put data in TableView after SQl query

Karoluss96

I put the text of error in a previous post /\

jsulm

@Karoluss96 The error is quite clear: you can't set QTableView (which is a view) as model...
What @JonB suggested is to use https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qsqltablemodel.html or https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qsqlquerymodel.html as model to get data from your SQL database and set that model in self.dlg.tableView_5

Karoluss96

OK, now I have at beginning:

q= QSqlQueryModel()
  table = QSqlTableModel()

JonB

@Karoluss96
Why do you have both a QSqlQueryModel and a QSqlTableModel? Why two models?

And you are assigning each of these to a function-local variable now. You will not be able to access these outside of this function, and they may be destroyed when they go out of scope.

Karoluss96

Both I catch in one funtion, so I needn't put them global.
Now I have that:

 q= QSqlQueryModel()
        table = QSqlTableModel()
        self.dlg.tableView_3.show()
        if con == Zest[0]:
           sql2 = "SELECT * FROM ZARZADZANIE.ZAMOWIENIA_WG_STATUS_V"
           q=query.exec_(sql2)
           a=table.setQuery(q)
           self.dlg.tableView_5.setModel(a)  
           print (a)

with an error: TypeError: setQuery(self, QSqlQuery): argument 1 has unexpected type 'bool'

I'm wondering how often we need to write that you are creating local variables which are destroyed as soon as the method finishes?

And did you actually read what @JonB wrote? Again: why do you have QSqlQueryModel AND QSqlTableModel?

Why are you overwriting q here:

q=query.exec_(sql2)

?
You should really think more about what you are doing...

Karoluss96

OK, I read his suggestion, but still don't what is a problem in 'creating local variables which are destroyed as soon as the method finishes' - this variables exist only in this function

q=query.exec_(sql2) come from different function in my app, which execute query in assigned variable, that have the SQL command as a string.

Now the error is little different: TypeError: setQuery(self, QSqlQuery): argument 1 has unexpected type 'str'

Simple: your models (q and table) will be destroyed as soon as the method finishes, so your tableView_5 will not show anything.

"q=query.exec_(sql2) come from different function in my app" - don't just copy/paste something without thinking about what you are doing.

"Now the error is little different" - please, if you get an error show also the code causing this error!

Karoluss96

Problem is in last line of this code:

sql2 = "SELECT * FROM ZARZADZANIE.ZAMOWIENIA_WG_STATUS_V"
           q=query.exec_(sql2)
           print (q)
           c=self.dlg.tableView_5.setModel(q)

I don't know why q is converted from string to bool.
If I put in setModel sql2 instead of q it shout that here can be the string

about sentance: " models (q and table) will be destroyed as soon as the method finishes, so your tableView_5 will not show anything." what do you propose?

Because you copy pasted code without thinking.
What do you think this line of code is doing?

q=query.exec_(sql2)

Karoluss96

It should execute the sql in a different functions eg.

      sql9 = 'SELECT * FROM ZARZADZANIE.STATUS_PRZEK_SLO'
        query.exec_(sql9)

It works, but here the result of query (by while query.next():)
goes to ComboBox not TableView

and earlier query is declared global as:

global query
query = QSqlQuery(db)
