QSerialPortInfo undefined Type

[Gh0stShell]

Hi,

I try to use QSerialPortInfo, but I get the Issue that QSerialPortInfo is an undefined tpye.

Q_FOREACH(QSerialPortInfo port, QSerialPortInfo::availablePorts()) {
    qDebug() << "Port: " << port.portName();
}

Yes, I added serialport qo the .pro

Any Ideas why it doesn't work?

@Gh0stShell
Do you mean that you failed to #include <QSerialPortInfo> into your source file? "undefined tpye" at compile or at link time?

Even when someone forgets about include directive, qt IDE should autoadd respective include directive.

Since when?

And please tell us how Qt Creator will know what include directive to use?

Let's say that I wrote a super-duper serial port information class that coincidentally is named QSerialPortInfo BUT I decided my .h file to be named SerialComms... so what Qt Creator will do?

@JonB Yes, I really forgot to #include <QSerialPortInfo>. But as @macfanpl said Qt automatically added it.

But it was a good help to see what the problem is. Qt autoadded it like #include <QtSerialPort/QSerialPort>.
I did split it up to
#include <QtSerialPort>
and
#include <QSerialPort>
and now it seems to work. So the Problem was a mix of me forgetting to import and Qt to import it not the right way. I think...

Thank you
