Create object in another object

@Damian7546 If your application crashes then the first thing to do is: use the debugger.
So, please run your app in debugger and post the stack trace after the crash here...

Christian Ehrlicher

Your code crashes in the dtor of RfidSerialWorker (if doWork() would reach it's end), also it's using a blocking approach instead signals and slots to wait for data, the strange while(1) - loop does never exits and at last ít's accessing outFrameQueue from two different threads without proper locking mechanisms (and before you ask - read and understand at least https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/threads-synchronizing.html before fiddling around with threads for no reason).

Damian7546

@Christian-Ehrlicher so I will do like you propose.

Damian7546

I think that no a problem with thread.

I remove thread and create my object like below:

  QQueue<RfidFrame*> outFrameQueue;
    RfidSerialWorker *rfidSerialWorker = new RfidSerialWorker(&outFrameQueue);
    RfidFrameProcessor *rfidFrameProcessor = new RfidFrameProcessor(&outFrameQueue);

    connect(rfidSerialWorker, SIGNAL(frameReceived(RfidFrame*)), rfidFrameProcessor, SLOT(FrameIncoming(RfidFrame*)));
    connect(rfidFrameProcessor, SIGNAL(frameSend()), rfidSerialWorker, SLOT(frameToSend()));
    rfidSerialWorker->initSerialPort();

    //tests - try send frame cyclically
    QTimer *timer = new QTimer(this);
    QObject::connect(timer, SIGNAL(timeout()), rfidFrameProcessor , SLOT(update_power_ind()));
    timer->start(2000);

Function which one try send frame is below:

void RfidFrameProcessor::update_power_ind()
{
    readSourceRSx(1,9);
}
void RfidFrameProcessor::readSourceRSx(quint8 addr, quint8 source)
{

    QByteArray data;
    data.append(source);
    RfidFrame *frameToSend = new RfidFrame(addr, C_ReadSourceRSx, data);
    qDebug() << "Get lenght from frameToSend: " << frameToSend->GetDataLength();
    m_outFrameQueue->enqueue(frameToSend);
    emit frameSend();

}

and problem is in the same step:
m_outFrameQueue->enqueue(frameToSend); despite the fact that in frameToSend I have data like you can see in below in Application Output.

and problem is in the same step

And again: is m_outFrameQueue a valid pointer?

Damian7546

@jsulm In my opinion yes, but I am beginner.... Please explain me.
.h

class RfidFrameProcessor : public QObject
{
    Q_OBJECT
public:
    explicit RfidFrameProcessor(QQueue<RfidFrame*> *outFrameQueue, QObject *parent = nullptr);
private:
    QQueue<RfidFrame*> *m_outFrameQueue;
}

.cpp

RfidFrameProcessor::RfidFrameProcessor(QQueue<RfidFrame*> *outFrameQueue,QObject *parent)
    : QObject(parent)
{
    m_outFrameQueue = outFrameQueue;
}

jsulm

@Damian7546 said in Create object in another object:

m_outFrameQueue = outFrameQueue;

I laready asked that before: is outFrameQueue a valid pointer?

Damian7546

Ok,
I create in this way:

 QQueue<RfidFrame*> outFrameQueue;
    RfidSerialWorker *rfidSerialWorker = new RfidSerialWorker(&outFrameQueue);
    RfidFrameProcessor *rfidFrameProcessor = new RfidFrameProcessor(&outFrameQueue);

But in class

   Q_OBJECT
public:
    explicit RfidFrameProcessor(QQueue<RfidFrame*> *outFrameQueue, QObject *parent = nullptr);
private:
    QQueue<RfidFrame*> *m_outFrameQueue;

QQueue<RfidFrame*> outFrameQueue;
RfidSerialWorker *rfidSerialWorker = new RfidSerialWorker(&outFrameQueue);
RfidFrameProcessor *rfidFrameProcessor = new RfidFrameProcessor(&outFrameQueue);
...
timer->start(2000);

If I understand your code right. QQueue<RfidFrame*> outFrameQueue is a local variable in some method? But once you have set off the timer you exit that method, right? So the QQueue<RfidFrame*> outFrameQueue goes out of scope and gets destroyed at that point. Yet you have passed that queue as a parameter to RfidSerialWorker/RfidFrameProcessor, they have set a m_outFrameQueue to point to that queue passed in, it is no longer valid, but they still use it => disaster. Is my analysis correct for your code?

I'm not sure, but it sounds like your QQueue<RfidFrame*> outFrameQueue; should not be local variable in a method but rather a persistent member variable?

Damian7546

Thanks QQueue<RfidFrame*> outFrameQueue i wolud like to pass frame to send beetwen RfidSerialWorker and RfidFrameProcessor.

Exactly. But how do this ?

Make outFrameQueue member variable instead of local variable.

Damian7546

sure!! Thank you !
