QStackedWidget (index out of range)

ahsan737

I am using QStackedWidget for my app which has more than 30 screens, I am facing the error "index out of range". How can I deal with this error? I've also tried to use a multi-level stacked widget yet can't get rid of that error.

Please guide,

sierdzio

When does that error show up? Are you 100% sure you are not trying to open a widget at invalid index?

@ahsan737
Make it so the index you are passing is 0 <= index < QStackedWidget.count(). Violating that is the only reason for that message. There isn't a limit on the number of widget pages you can have in a stacked widget.

@JonB @sierdzio I have just loaded these widgets, and when I deploy on the device then the app crash at the start even before I do anything.

Error

F libFBC3.so: ASSERT failure in QList<T>::at: "index out of range",

Move to next Index

void MainWindow::_onNext()
{
    int Index=ui->stackedWidget->currentIndex();
    Index++;
    ui->stackedWidget->setCurrentIndex(Index);
}

@sierdzio @JonB but if I add fewer widgets then everything works fine.

JonB

@ahsan737
So print out the value of Index if you want to know why it is out of range! From your code if ui->stackedWidget->currentIndex() is presently on the last widget in the stack it's going to go out of range.

ahsan737

@JonB I have noticed that a particular widget is causing the problem. Whenever I try to add that widget then the error appears. In that widget, I am plotting a line graph using QCustomPlot. Is that promoted widget causing the problem?

Hi
Promoting a widget is merely an editor stunt, where it replaces the generic type with
a user type in the code generator.
As soon as code runs, it is no different from simply newing your own type.

However, customplot might use a QList internally and maybe that's the one that
gives this error.

ahsan737

@mrjj this UI containing QCustomPlot and Graph works fine, but gives an error when I add it to QStackedWidget. How can it possibly be evaluated?

mrjj

@ahsan737
Are you sure its not empty and you connected signals to some slot so it tried to do something ?
Try adding a new QCustomPlot instead and see.

ui->stackedWidget->addWidget(new QCustomPlot (this) );

to see if that also gives same error.

Did you actually check what @JonB wrote?
Can you post the complete backtrace?

SGaist

Hi,

void MainWindow::_onNext()
{
int Index=ui->stackedWidget->currentIndex();
Index++;
ui->stackedWidget->setCurrentIndex(Index);
}

You are missing the boundary check so suggested by @JonB.

mrjj

Hi
I'm not sure the stackedwidget in itself is to blame for the index out of range.
If i do this
ui->stackedWidget->setCurrentIndex(1000);
in a blank GUI project. Nothing is shown and app just starts.
Also in the inner code, the index is checked.

QWidget *QStackedLayout::widget(int index) const
{
    Q_D(const QStackedLayout);
     if (index < 0 || index >= d->list.size())
        return nullptr;
    return d->list.at(index)->widget();
}

SGaist

@mrjj Exactly what I was double checking :-)

@SGaist
Hi
I recalled having a off by one error with a stackedwidget and it seemed to just ignore it - back then so felt the urge to use the source.

To Make it more interesting, QCustomPlot seems to be using a QVector but
the actual error is
ASSERT failure in QList<T>

So I guess this calls for a back trace as Christian is after :)

Agreed

ahsan737

Thanks a lot, for your dedicated and kind response, the issue is resolved. It was being caused because the application was failing to read the initial configuration file as I mistakenly forgot calling a class in the startup. Silly yet frustrating mistake,

mrjj

@ahsan737
Good you found it.
So the QList it had the error about was one of the widget that you inserted into the stacked so it seemed it was related to that ?

ahsan737

@mrjj yes, error was related to QList which was a part of the widget. and when I try to add that widget to stack then it makes the app crash.
