QtConcurrent::run errors with Qt6

mpvx

_EncodeVideo.cpp

bool cEncodeVideo::DoEncode() {
...
if ((!PreviousFrame)||(PreviousFrame->RenderedImage.isNull()))          ThreadAssembly.setFuture(QtConcurrent::run(&cEncodeVideo::Assembly,this,Frame,PreviousFrame,&RenderMusic,&ToEncodeMusic,Continue));

}

void cEncodeVideo::Assembly(cDiaporamaObjectInfo *Frame,cDiaporamaObjectInfo *PreviousFrame,cSoundBlockList *RenderMusic,cSoundBlockList *ToEncodeMusic,bool &Continue) {
...
}

Is cEncodeVideo::Assembly a member function?
Not sure QtConcurrent::run is able to bind together &cEncodeVideo::Assembly and the 'this' argument.
Try wrapping that part of the call into a lambda, or use std::mem_fn
Or some of the other arguments has a type mismatch.

@Asperamanca said in QtConcurrent::run errors with Qt6:

Not sure QtConcurrent::run is able to bind together &cEncodeVideo::Assembly and the 'this' argument.

We do not know, because the OP has been asked to provide an example for us to check and they simply paste a couple of lines out of any context so nobody can tell....

mpvx

cEncodeVideo::Assembly is a class::function

In other files with QtConcurrent::run ffDiaporama 2.1 works well only not in _EncodeVideo.cpp.

It's a bit frustrating. You mention code we can't know, instead of providing sufficient source code to identify and name the problem (even when asked to do so).
I have given you leads on how to identify and fix the problem yourself, but you did not answer them.

mpvx

The code is here (ffDiaporama 2.1)

The translation in Qt6 is here

If I use

ThreadAssembly.setFuture(QtConcurrent::run([=]{Assembly(Frame,PreviousFrame,&RenderMusic,&ToEncodeMusic,Continue)}));

as solution corresponding to link text
I get

@mpvx
Here is what I would recommend you to do:

Create a static dummy function without parameters
Test whether calling QtConcurrent::run with that dummy function works
Create a member dummy function without parameters
Test whether you can call them
One by one, start adding your parameters to the dummy function. It does not need to do anything with them, just accept them
Find out at which point the code no longer compiles

If, at that point, you cannot figure out what exactly the problem is, post

your dummy function
the code that calls the dummy function

mpvx

I use now only the command

Assembly(Frame,PreviousFrame,&RenderMusic,&ToEncodeMusic,Continue);

and it works.

It looks like Qt6’s QtConcurrent::run no longer supports passing a raw pointer to a member function the way Qt5 did. You’ll need to use a lambda or std::bind to wrap the member function call. For example:
ThreadAssembly.setFuture(QtConcurrent::run(= {
this->Assembly(Frame, PreviousFrame, &RenderMusic, &ToEncodeMusic, Continue);
}));
This way, the function becomes a callable object compatible with Qt6’s QtConcurrent::run. It should fix the operator() / ArgResolver errors you’re seeing.
