Modbus TCP Client write holding registers

Damian7546

Look..
I wold like call wr_ready when QbyteArray (m_holdRegArray) was changed, so I created code like below:


void ClientMachine1::run()
{
   ///my Modbus TCP Client code 
   ///........  
   how connect wr_redy  with  signal   holdRegArrayChanged 	
   
}

QByteArray ClientMachine1::holdRegArray() const
{
    return m_holdRegArray;
}

void ClientMachine1::setHoldRegArray(const QByteArray &newHoldRegArray)
{
    if (m_holdRegArray == newHoldRegArray)
        return;
    m_holdRegArray = newHoldRegArray;
    emit holdRegArrayChanged();
}

How connect holdRegArrayChanged with wr_ready inside run() thread ?

jsulm

@Damian7546 I still don't understand the problem. If wr_ready is a slot and holdRegArrayChanged a signal then simply connect them like any other signal/slot. Can you explain what exactly is not clear?

Damian7546

Because wr_ready is not visible in the constructor:

ClientMachine1::ClientMachine1(QObject *parent)
    : QThread{parent}
{

    connect(this, ClientMachine1::holdRegArrayChanged, this, ClientMachine1::wr_ready);
}

In othe hand, the holdRegArrayChanged I can not connect inside run() because I have errors:

Reference to non-static member function must be called; did you mean to call it with no arguments? (fix available)
insert '()'

No member named 'wr_redy' in 'ClientMachine1'

Of course it's not, because you defined it inside run().
Simply define it as normal member of ClientMachine1...

Can you tell me how create definition in *.h file to my wr_redy lambda contruction and auto type ?

Why does it have to be a lambda?

jsulm

@Damian7546 I'm also wondering why you use threads at all?
If you need to do something periodically then simply use QTimer.

I just want to know how to do it - for my own knowledge

I would like to run Client on thread and test with several clients(threads) ... how will it be with stability and read/write speed,
So how define wr_redy in *.h file ?

Don't define it as lambda, but a normal method.

Damian7546

@jsulm How do I do that?
When I declare my function in *.h file :
void wr_redy();

And I will create definition this function outside my run() function , I do not have acces to variables defined in run()...

@Damian7546 If you want to connect a lambda to a signal then do it properly:

connect(this, ClientMachine1::holdRegArrayChanged, this, wr_redy);

wr_redy is NOT a member of your class, so simply do not prefix it with your class name.

Right

@jsulm Unfortunetly my write function still doesn't work:/

auto wr_redy = [&](){
            for(int i=0; i < m_holdRegArray.count(); i++){
                qDebug() << "count: " << i;
                wr.setValue(i, m_holdRegArray[i]);
            }
    };

The application was crash when it wr.setValue(i, m_holdRegArray[i]); is called...

So, did you use debugger to see why it crashes?
What is wr?

Damian7546

@jsulm When I have status: "ModbusTCPClient is disconnected" my app crash when I try write registers..

jsulm

@Damian7546 Then don't write registers if there is no connection...

Damian7546

@jsulm I was wrong, sometimes app was crash when I try write value. I get message like below :

QSocketNotifier: Socket notifiers cannot be enabled or disabled from another thread
QObject: Cannot create children for a parent that is in a different thread.

QObject::startTimer: Timers cannot be started from another thread
Error Modbus TCP CLient read:  QModbusDevice::TimeoutError

jsulm

@Damian7546 As all these errors tell you: do the threading properly!
